Chapter 146 – The Carpenter’s Workshop - Part 2
“Please come this way,” Han Ying invited.
With a nod, Li Yuan smiled. “Lead the way. Old Wang, follow this woman’s instructions.”
From the driver’s seat, Wang San gave a good-natured grin. “Yes, sir.”
Li Yuan prepared to climb back onto the carriage, but then turned abruptly. “Miss Pang?”
Pang Qian, off in her own thoughts, didn’t react until he called again. She looked up, confused. “Uhhh, huh? Are...are you talking to me?”
Han Ying admonished her. “Mind your manners!”
Pang Qian hastily apologized, feeling both embarrassed and curious. She couldn’t resist sneaking a few more glances at the legendary Blood Blade Patriarch, who at a glance didn’t look any older than she was.
Li Yuan spoke to her with an easy smile. “I’m new here and don’t know the area. Would Miss Pang mind riding with me for a while and telling me about life here in Flowerpath? My goddaughter is in the carriage, too, so no need to worry about being alone with me.”
Without missing a beat, Pang Qian replied, “Yes, of course!”
Han Ying quickly intervened. “Pang Qian, don’t be rude!”
Li Yuan tilted his head. “What’s rude about it?”
Flustered, Han Ying mumbled something about meaning no offense and allowed Pang Qian to climb into the carriage. Inside, Tang Nian scooted over to give her some space, though she frowned slightly and sniffed the air in curiosity. Pang Qian’s light perfume was surprisingly pleasant.
