“You don’t allow people to buy the rice wine to takeaway?” Duan Ye inquired.
The shopkeeper replied, “That’s right. You can only consume our wine on the premises. You can’t buy them to take out.”
“Can I exchange them with things?” Feng Jiu asked, shaking the winecup in her hand gently.
The shopkeeper was surprised. “This…we’ve never had this situation before. I…” Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted.
“Shopkeeper.” The waiter ran over, pulled his sleeve, and whispered in his ear.
After listening to the waiter, the shopkeeper’s heart moved. He couldn’t help looking at the beautiful woman in red and spoke with a smile. “Young Miss, you turn out to be my Master’s old friend. Master ordered me to send two jars of wine to you.” He ordered the waiter, “Go to the wine cellar and get two jars of wine.”
“Yes.” The waiter replied and started running immediately.
Feng Jiu raised her eyebrows. “Old friend? Who is your Master?” Why didn’t she know that she had made this friend?
Duan Ye took a glance at Feng Jiu while speculating in his heart: This person must be a man.
Lu Xiyan and Ruan Ru were surprised. They were all locals of this city. Naturally, they knew the rule that Fragrance Pavilion’s wine was not for takeaway. Even if people with fame and prestige in the city came, not to mention giving it away for free, they really would not sell it to them to go.
Even though they didn’t know who the Ghost Doctor was, she had quite a bit of skill.
The shopkeeper was stunned to hear Feng Jiu’s question. He smiled, “Miss, you don’t know our Master?” After a pause, he spoke again. “Even if you really don’t know, since my Master says he is an old friend, it must be someone you know. Please just accept the wine, Miss.”
Feng Jiu’s lips curved into a smile. “Is your Master here? Since he’s an old friend, is there a reason why he didn’t show up? Please let him know, I’d like to meet this old friend.”
The shopkeeper smiled. “Alright, please wait a moment, Miss.” He saluted and withdrew.
In the loft of the top floor of Fragrant Pavilion, a black-robed man with a mask on his face was leaning on the soft couch, playing with a wine cup in his hand. He looked deep in thought, but what was in his mind was unknown.
If Feng Jiu saw him right now, she would definitely recognize him. He was none other than the Shadow Night Palace’s Master.
“Master, why did you send wine to the Ghost Doctor? It is obvious that she has ruined so many good things for us. Since we know that she is here, why not find a chance to attack her? ” An old man next to him frowned and asked, his eyes full of doubts.
The man played with the wine gla.s.s in his hand and did not even lift his eyelids. “Attack her? Well, what’s the point?”
The old man was stunned. What’s the point? Wasn’t Ghost Doctor their enemy? He had never seen anyone send wine to the enemy. If it’s poisoned wine, that’s a different matter. But the other party was Ghost Doctor and what they sent out could not poison her. He really didn’t understand what his Master was thinking.
Although he felt that his Master’s method was somewhat strange, after all, he was the Master and it was not good to question him excessively. So, he stood still and didn’t speak again. He thought to himself that maybe Master had another plan.
Just then, the shopkeeper’s voice came from outside. “Master, the lady in red said she wants to see you.”
Hearing this, the black robed man’s hand playing with the wine cup stopped and his eyes flashed.
