Chen Yuan was standing on her place. Her eyes were closed, but it didn't seem that way. At least, for them.
"Do you know each other?"
Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. He let out a low chuckle. "Hua'er is my fiancée, Doctor Chen."
"I see."
Nan Hua didn't say anything and looked at Long Qian Xing with her clear gaze. Even though she knew that Long Qian Xing knew Traveling Doctor Liu, she didn't expect him to know Senior Sister Chen too.
From what Shan Yu had said before, she knew that Chen Yuan hadn't left the border for many years. The only possibility for Long Qian Xing to meet her was if he come to the Wind City in the past.
Chen Yuan walked into the small hut with her stick tapping the ground in order to gain picture of how her surroundings were. Her back was straight as if she could see while her hand stretched forward when she hit something in front of her.
A box was brought near her nose before she turned around and put the box on the table after a few times walking.
"That's the one you want."
"Many thanks, Doctor Chen." Long Qian Xing smiled and picked the box up. He took out a pouch and put it on the table. "The payment is here."
"Mhm."
"You're not going to check this time?"
Chen Yuan laughed faintly. "If you dare to cheat on me, I'll ask your fiancée to pay on your behalf."
Nan Hua, who had just entered the hut in order to start her study for the day, was speechless. Why did it turn to her when her target was Long Qian Xing? She didn't do anything aside from walking into the hut.
Long Qian Xing laughed. "I'm paying the same amount as before. Unless you plan to charge me more, it should be enough."
"Mhm."
"Senior Sister Chen, what are we going to study today?" Nan Hua asked after she saw Long Qian Xing kept the medicine. She knew that her senior sister was good at making medicine… no, not medicine but rather medicinal incense. The one that Long Qian Xing asked must have been a box of medicinal incense.
"I'm going to teach you how to make medicinal incense."
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. In the past, her senior sister refused to teach them because she told them that their control skill was too bad for them to learn this. Now that Chen Yuan knew that she was Long Qian Xing's fiancée, she wanted her to learn how to make medicinal incense.
Chen Yuan tapped the table. "Your control is better, so you can make it. But Kuang Shen can't."
Oh.
It was actually because her qualification was better.
"Kuang Shen is not here today?" Nan Hua asked softly.
