Chapter 998: Do You Also Think a Daughter is Best?

The group chatted for a while before Ian, overwhelmed by the antics of two children, retreated to the backyard.

Tina glanced at Master Tam, who was bent over a box, carefully inspecting its authenticity. She sighed, exasperated. "Master, you've already accepted the gift. Can we stop beating around the bush now?"

Master Tam paused, reluctantly closing the box. His tone shifted immediately. "You little rascal! What do you take me for? Didn't I say enough during our phone call yesterday?"

Among all the people in the world, Tina prided herself on knowing Master Tam best. If she claimed the top spot, no one would dare claim second.

Unless he got his hands on the wild snow lotus, there was no way he would spill the truth. He was the kind to toss a small stone to test the waters first.

Tina cast him a calm look. "Would you really reveal information equivalent to a wild snow lotus over the phone?"

Master Tam froze. He didn't reply. Of course, he hadn't said anything over the phone- he was worried the information might leak. It had taken him three days of research to gather that intel. If someone overheard and snatched it away, he'd be furious enough to spit blood.

The hall was chilly, and the tea in front of them quickly cooled. Tina sipped it, wrinkling her nose slightly at the taste.

Noticing her reaction, Jared spoke up before either of them could continue. "Master, Tina, let's talk inside. It's too drafty here."

He stood, wrapping an arm around Tina to lead her into the inner hall.

Master Tam froze, glancing outside. The weather didn't seem particularly windy to him. Have young people started embracing health preservation trends now?

Inside the reception room, Jared took a blanket from a servant and draped it over Tina's shoulders. He also handed her a cup of hot water he'd specially requested.

If Master Tam failed to notice what was happening now, he might as well relinquish the title of "Master" he'd held for so many years. Stroking his beard, he deliberately asked, "Girl, come here and let me check how your body's doing."

Tina's eyebrows twitched. Of all things, this was the one she wanted to avoid.
