Ah Jiu returned home, his face clouded with unease. Xiao Li, Yuan Ye, and others exchanged puzzled looks. Everything had been fine at Wufu's home, hadn't it? They had all seemed to be enjoying themselves, so why had dark clouds gathered upon his return?
If you were to ask Ah Jiu, even he couldn't say for certain. He just felt a sense of constriction in his heart, especially when the topic of making a living came up. Why on earth had he come up with such a proposal?
It was just too embarrassing!
And Miss Wufu had looked somewhat uneasy as well. Could it be because of his proposal that she was unhappy?
Xiao Li offered a cup of tea, asking, "My lord, have you encountered some difficulty? Perhaps your servants can think of a solution?"
Ah Jiu took the tea and sipped it, remaining silent for a long while.
"My lord, could it be because of Miss Wufu?" Xiao Li ventured again.
Ah Jiu glanced at him.
