Chapter 119: Captured in a Painting
“I’ll check tomorrow to see if there are any more job notices that I can accept. If there’s one available, I’ll bring it back,” Heroine Wu said. “If we accept a new job before the reward for the previous one is given, the county official will surely be shocked. Haha…”
“Do you need me to accompany you?”
“It’s up to you…” Heroine Wu thought for a moment and then continued, “You earn money for your brains, I earn money for hard work. You handle the methods, I handle the information. You do your part, I do mine. I usually pass by the city gate often. If you'll only feel at ease by seeing it for yourself, or if you'd feel awkward not going with me, you're welcome to come along with me.”
“Sorry for the trouble, Heroine Wu.”
“Not at all. I’m naturally restless,” Heroine Wu replied. “But it’s good if you come with me. That way we can discuss and decide on the spot, so we don’t lose out to someone else.”
“I can accept any job.”
“You’re impressive…”
“I heard the apricot blossoms outside the city have bloomed recently?”
“Yes, but it’s outside the east gate. You can go see for yourself; there should be many people there, just follow the crowd,” Heroine Wu said. “I’m too busy, and flowers and plants don’t interest me much.”
