Xiao Jie was suddenly taken aback.
"Ah, indeed there are distinguished guests visiting, please come in, please come in."
Xiao Jie was stunned. Was he just allowed to enter like that? Without even asking what he was here for?
He had even prepared a speech for this occasion.
But since he was allowed in, he naturally wouldn't be polite.
Xiao Jie followed the servant inside, explaining as he walked, "I am a traveler heading north, passing by this place in the midst of a snowstorm, wishing to rest here for a while..."
"No need for explanations, esteemed guest. My master has been awaiting you for quite some time. Please, come in, come in."
Xiao Jie walked into the manor and was immediately surprised. The inside of the manor was a completely different world, with carved beams and painted rafters, lush green trees, and strange flowers and plants decorating the large garden, tucked away between pavilions and towers, appearing even more elegant.
Looking around, it was like a paradise.
