"The lunch has been prepared, and I hope that Doctor Shao will move to the side hall," Father Jiang said with a smile on his face.

Father Jiang still blocked their path, showing no intention of stepping aside.
"Is Master Jiang intending to force me to stay for the meal?" Shao He aksed, her voice faint but carrying a dangerous edge and an authoritative air that couldn’t be ignored.
"How could that be? We invited Doctor Shao over for treatment, not for any other reason," Father Jiang responded, still smiling.
