"Ling Ling, go to Ghost Axe Pavilion and find someone to repair this notch. Jiang Bao, follow me."
After arranging the tasks, the master casually picked up Jiang Lu's draft and left the Scripture Pavilion, descending the stairs.
Jiang Lu was puzzled but obediently followed.
At the pavilion's entrance, a woman with the appearance of a youthful elder but a gloomy face was waiting, and she was only slightly taller than the master.
Upon seeing the master, she muttered impatiently, "What took so long?"
"Was chatting with the new apprentice, let's go upstairs." The master replied casually and pulled Jiang Lu over, "This is your Hua Si uncle, the head of Huanzhen Art Institute, come, pay your respects."
"Oh, hello Uncle Hua Si." Jiang Lu greeted politely.
Only then did Hua Si notice Jiang Lu.
"Eh...hiss..." She stared straight at Jiang Lu, her thoughts unreadable.
And Jiang Lu took this opportunity to notice that Hua Si's gloominess didn't seem to come from her character.
