Chapter 298 - Ninety Eight - How her mornings begin (2/2)

”Easy to do,” Maimai admitted.  It was especially difficult whenever Leon decided to add a few more of his charms within the surroundings of his home, though fortunately, it had been a while since he'd carved new 'decorations' to set in the trees.  ”Follow me,” she offered, ”I was heading there anyway.”

He looked grateful, but Maimai didn't think it was such a big thing.  Anyway, this man could accept Jin Li's sharp wrath instead of herself when they intruded on his and Leon's lovey dovey time!  She did hope that there was something to interrupt!

Discreetly, she scratched her nose.

The scent of tender, herb seedling delicately drifted on the breeze as the gardens about the old hut had begun to sprout.  The scent became stronger as they approached the gates of the courtyard property.  The gate was unsurprisingly locked, but that was never an obstacle to those with good martial arts.  Maimai didn't realise that she had caught Bowyer unawares when she easily leapt over the tall gate beside him, though.  Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click for visiting.

A low yowling sound came from the stable, but it ceased a brief moment later when her scent was caught by the two coeurl.  She smiled to herself, pleased that the beasts liked her enough to let her pass.  She would be devastated if she knew that Wu Ye was just too lazy to deal with her 'weak' self.  It did consider testing Bowyer for a bit, but it's stomach then rumbled and it decided to deal with it once it's lazy human brought its breakfast over.

Numerous pots had begun to fill the courtyard, the fresh scents of herb seedlings came from them and mixed in the air with the smell of clean soil.  Maimai's eyes briefly wandered to that small greenhouse building and sure enough, there were flecks of green within pots lining its shelves and tiled floor.  Leon was always thinking of how to reduce expenditure for himself when making pills, it was not surprising that his garden was already being developed for this year.  The school provided much, but if there were rarer herbs involved in the recipe, if none were available, they'd have to source it themselves.  For their low level, though, they shouldn't find themselves with this issue, but Leon liked to plan ahead.

Maimai knocked on the sturdy wooden door of the main building.  ”Leon, it's me!  Oh and Bowyer came for Jin Li!”  She didn't try to open the door.  Jin Li would not have left this unlocked either.

”Don't unlock it,” she heard the commandeering drawl from within the building, clearly not making any attempt to be discreet.  ”They can see themselves out.”

”Jin Li,” Leon's voice chided, softly.

”Tch.”

The sound of the metal bolt being moved echoed from inside.
