"My name is Xu Jin-kui, and my daughter is also a student at Cangsong Academy."
Xu Jin-kui said with a broad smile.
"I see."
Chen Ping'an nodded slightly.
"Young Master, I happened to bring some pastries. Would you care to try some?"
Xu Jin-kui invited with a smile.
As he spoke, the old servant behind him opened a wooden box and presented it to Chen Ping'an.
Chen Ping'an glanced at it and politely declined with a smile.
"There's no need. I'm not hungry."
"Young Master, this is the plum blossom cake from Sanfu Tower. It should be quite delicious!"
Xu Jin-kui was quite insistent, pushing a plate of the plum blossom cakes toward him.
Seeing how insistent the man was, Chen Ping'an didn't refuse again.
However, as he picked up a plum blossom cake, he remained cautious. A faint surge of his Inner Qi flowed through the meridians in his hand and into the cake.
