was the gaze.

It came from Master Tang Wan—Xi Fangli.

He sat tight next to Jiang Jinsang in the back seat of the carriage. The old man remained silent, fingers caressing and rubbing his knee, smilingly staring at him.

"How is your health? How have you been recovering after the surgery?" His voice was incredibly gentle. If not for having seen him fiercely reprimand You Congrong with his own eyes, Jiang Jinsang might have thought this was a truly kind elder.

"Pretty good, thank you for your concern."

"You’re a bit thin, you should eat more."

"Mhm."

"I didn’t attend your engagement with Wanwan either. I didn’t expect that the first time we met would be after you two registered your marriage..."

Xi Fangli kept smiling at him, and Jiang Jinsang could only give a dry laugh in return. They weren’t very familiar with each other, and it was inevitably a bit awkward, so he could only try to appear calm and composed.

"Did your poor health as a child hinder your schooling?"

"It definitely did, but I could still read at home."

"I’ve heard you like to read?"

"Yes."

"What books have you been reading recently?" Xi Fangli was like any regular elder, his questions also very ordinary.

Jiang Jinsang shared with him some of the books he had recently read.

"You read books on Cyan Feather, too?"

"I just want to understand more about what Wanwan is doing. However, knowledge from books is ultimately shallow—I could only grasp some development changes and learn a bit of the basics."

Xi Fangli smiled contentedly, "As for me, I started learning the craft from my master since I was young, didn’t read much. I just followed him and learned to write. What I love most in my life are book-lovers. Reading is wonderful..."

Jiang Jinsang just smiled along, not sure if his words were genuine.

"Those days were tough. My family couldn’t afford it, so I was sent to apprentice with my master. At least he could provide me with food, so I wouldn’t starve to death. Reading was too much of a luxury," the old man said, chuckling.

"When learning the craft, especially in summer, those mosquitoes in the south... unbelievable. In the end, I had no choice but to soak my legs in water to avoid them, since the mosquitoes couldn’t dive under water..."

"As a result, my legs suffered quite a few ailments."
