"Chen Lin, Shepherd of White Cloud Pasture, pays his respects to Boss Feng!"
Entering Feng Sanniang's room, Chen Lin cupped his fists and spoke respectfully.
Her Gourmet House was on the same level as his, and he could not tell how high her cultivation was. But even Gege Yun had to ask favors of her, so he dared not underestimate her.
"What, did Gege Yun send you to repay her debt?"
Feng Sanniang looked much as she always had, giving off an air of both innocence and allure. She reclined languidly in a rocking chair, showing no intention of getting up.
Chen Lin's expression stiffened.
He could not pick up that thread.
Given Gege Yun's status, whatever she owed was certainly no small sum. Better to leave the debt unpaid for now.
He gave a dry chuckle instead. "Not at all. I haven't seen Her Grace the Princess in many years either. I came because there's something I'd like to ask the Boss Lady to help with."
"Let's hear it."
Feng Sanniang did not mention the debt again, nor did she refuse him outright, easing Chen Lin's mind.
He then spoke frankly. "I have a friend who wants to upgrade the permission on her Identity Token, but we can't contact the Guardian right now, so she can't apply. I'd like to ask the Boss Lady to help us obtain a Task Exemption Token."
"Certainly."
Feng Sanniang spoke lightly.
Chen Lin had still been considering what payment might persuade her. He had never expected her to agree outright!
Instead, this made him suspicious.
Yet she made no demands. She simply took out a piece of stiff paper resembling an invitation letter and flicked it lightly toward him. He caught it.
"Remember, you owe me a favor. You may leave!"
