Chapter 57: The Luan Returns
Morning.
Zheng Fa walked into the Seventh Young Master’s study, arms laden with papers covered in talisman diagrams.
Bathed in the early sunlight, the Seventh Young Master sat slouched at his desk, disheveled and drowsy. His hair was a mess, his face unwashed, and his head nodded as he fought off sleep. Compared to the refined and tidy image he’d presented when they first met, he now looked utterly unkempt.
Hearing Zheng Fa’s footsteps, the Young Master remained oblivious, sleeping so soundly that a thin strand of drool was threatening to drop onto an open talisman diagram on the desk.
Zheng Fa placed the stack of papers in front of him with a soft thud.
The sound startled the Young Master awake. He slowly raised his head, squinting at Zheng Fa and the new pile of diagrams.
“What’s this?” he mumbled groggily.
“Today’s task,” Zheng Fa replied with a warm, almost angelic smile.
