Of course, that's what she said—and that's all she could say.
I couldn't just say, "I heard you'd kicked the bucket, got worried about your safety, so I came to check on you..."—can I even say something like that?!
"Disciple thanks Master for your concern."
Ji Yuan obviously didn't believe Hua Yaoyue's words, so he hastily bowed in respect.
"Mhm. I'm leaving."
Seeing that Hua Yaoyue was about to head off—no way I could let that happen!
"Master, please wait a moment."
"Is there anything else?"
Hua Yaoyue turned back and asked.
"Nothing much, I just wanted to invite Master to stay for dinner."
"No need."
Hua Yaoyue still intended to leave, but Ji Yuan hurriedly added, "Disciple has brewed quite a bit of Heart's Desire Wine here, too."
Hua Yaoyue's footsteps came to a halt.
"Go ahead."
"You got it!"
Ji Yuan dashed off to the backyard.
