Chapter 24: 024 You are special, you can be a bit unrestrained with me Chapter 24: 024 You are special, you can be a bit unrestrained with me Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Half of the bookshelf in the study held books, and the other half, sketches. On the workbench, tools needed for making Cyan Feather crafts such as hole punch pliers, a hand drill, and carving knives were neatly arranged. There was also a semi-finished Cyan Feather inlay peony piece on the table.

Tang Wan was brewing tea, and as the boiling water poured in, a faint aroma of black tea filled the study.

She was about to serve the tea to Jiang Jinsang but realized he had somehow circled behind her.

His unexpected closeness caught her off guard, causing her hand holding the cup to tremble and nearly spill the tea, but…

The next second, he reached over, and with her hand, steadied the cup.

“Were you scared of me?”

The cup was too small, and Tang Wan held it with both hands. His hands now encased hers, his fingertips warm and his body temperature slightly high, as if there were sparks teasing the back of her hand…

It was quite hot.

“No,” Tang Wan maintained her composure, attempting to withdraw her fingers, but she was trapped, having no way, “Fifth Master?”

“We’re somewhat familiar now, aren’t we? I’m currently staying in your courtyard, it’s hard to avoid seeing each other every day.”

“You keep addressing me as Master, and it always makes me feel like we’re generations apart, even though there’s only a three-year age difference between us.”

“What Grandpa Tang said this morning was quite right…”

His tone was calm and gentle, his eyes lowered, without a hint of desire, speaking as if he were discussing the weather so casually.

Tang Wan guessed what he was about to say, but when he finally spoke, it was simply, “Should we change how we address each other?”

His voice was warm, and he pressed down on the last syllable of the word, sliding the entire sentence into a low, ambiguous tone.

Tang Wan’s heart was pounding, thumping wildly, squeezing her chest.

It painted her ears with a delicate blush.

“Change how we address each other?”

“Yes.”

If Old Master Tang had said it, it would have been a half-joking teasing, but when Jiang Jinsang said it, the entire meaning changed. His soft and humble tone made it irresistible.

The form of address was just a few words, yet it constantly reminded Tang Wan that the person before her was a master of Sijiu City. She must respect and revere him. Once such boundaries were broken…
