After meeting Xiao Jinyan, Jin Zijin headed straight back to Sanqing Temple, but as he was about to enter, he saw a dark figure under a locust tree by the courtyard wall.
He stopped and looked indifferently towards it.
The shadow paused for a moment, then walked out from under the tree with a careless stride, and chuckled, "What are you doing wandering around in the middle of the night, Junior Brother, instead of sleeping?"
In a low voice, Jin Zijin replied, "Huo Li? Aren't you also out wandering in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
He glanced at the house inside the courtyard wall and said, "Or rather, outside my courtyard wall."
Huo Li burst into laughter and said, "I thought you were sneaking off to see a fair maiden in the city in the middle of the night, but that maiden... wasn't she sent by you to Qi Mountain?"
