"And who are you?" Jiang Ming rubbed his wrist, feigning ignorance.
"Oh, I am He Zhi," the fat man said politely, clasping his hands in a fist salute.
"You are Lord Sima?"
"Hehe, Pavilion Chief Jiang, please!"
......
Lord He warmly took Jiang Ming's hand and led him into the hall in the backyard.
"Prepare a feast!"
"promise!"
A servant ran over to relay the order.
Lord He warmly invited Jiang Ming to sit down, and the maids immediately served him tea.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a servant stepped forward to report, "Sir, the sorceress has arrived."
"Let her wait in the front hall..." A hint of disgust flashed across Lord He's eyes.
The servant seemed a little embarrassed and added, "I heard that sorceress rambling on and on, saying that the prefect would be coming over in a little while."
"He's coming too?"
Upon hearing this, Lord He's brows furrowed into a knot.
