"No! Overseer, I would never! I just wanted to meet Lord Wei, argh!"
Another slap followed.
"Why do you want to meet him? His lordship is busy, and his duty to the Underworld Lord is noble! Do you think he would spare you his precious time?"
The scolding continued, and Wei Chen wisely retreated back toward the castle. He glanced at Zhang Niu.
Wei Chen had not personally overseen the worker recruitment process, so he did not know every employee. But for some reason, he had the distinct feeling that Zhang Niu had recruited his former clan patriarch out of spite.
"By the way, Lord Wei, the Princess has come to visit you. She wants you to make more ice cream for her," Zhang Niu said.
"Wait… didn't I teach her palace chefs how to make it?" Wei Chen frowned.
"You did, my lord, but she said your ice cream tastes much better. The ice cream her chefs make only satisfies the craving. It cannot be enjoyed the way yours can," Zhang Niu relayed Little Ningning's exact complaint.
