Knowing that Feng Jiu had urgent business, Song Mi'er didn't dally. She asked Feng Jiu to rest in the room, then quickly went downstairs to borrow the inn's kitchen. Soon, she returned with two steaming bowls of dumplings.
After they finished eating, Feng Jiu gave a few parting words and then left alone, making sure to leave Cloud Devouring behind to protect Song Mi'er. Feng Jiu had noticed that along their journey, as soon as some people realized Song Mi'er was a member of the renowned Song family, they would often target her. While Song Mi'er wasn't entirely defenseless, she was, after all, Feng Jiu's personal cook. Feng Jiu couldn't let anything happen to her while she was away.
