Chapter 82: Lord Li and the Clever Immortal
“Knock knock…” There was a knock on the door. Song You opened it to find the nun from earlier.
“What is it, Master?”
“Have you had dinner?”
“I’m not hungry, Master. There’s no need to trouble yourself.”
“There’s some thin porridge left in the pot. If you don’t mind, I can bring you a bowl to make do.”
“I'm already very grateful for the shelter you’ve provided. I couldn’t possibly ask you to go to the trouble of preparing a meal,” Song You replied respectfully.
“Just don’t mind if it’s not too tasty.” The nun glanced into his room and saw that he had taken out his wet clothes, blankets, and mats and spread them on the floor. She made no move to help him further and turned to walk back into the darkness.
After a while, she returned with a large bowl and a small coarse bowl. “Just leave them when you’re done.”
“Thank you, Master.” Song You accepted the bowls with both hands, still maintaining his respectful demeanor.
