The cabin was quite warm, further amplified by the burning charcoal the butler set up before Longsan after he arrived. The temperature inside rose, causing Nan Feng's face to be flushed red. She took off her cloak and bundled it up in front of her.
However, Longsan's face remained just as pale, as though no amount of heat could warm him.
The butler later served a pot of hot tea, along with two cups. Longsan poured a cup for Nan Feng, then pushed it towards her as he said, "I enjoyed our last conversation, Lady Nan. I initially thought we wouldn't have another chance like this. I feel honored now to be able to chat with you while enjoying the river view on a boat."
Although they were actually in the cabin and couldn't see the river, Nan Feng had a fear of the ship deck and didn't dare to go up once the boat started.
