However, even so, Li Ke still insisted on finishing all the miscellaneous tasks.

During this time, servants from several other households came to deliver fruits and melons.

Although they claimed to be delivering fruits and melons, those servants were sneakily observing Li Ke’s busy figure all along, seemingly trying to probe for some information.

Li Ke was taken aback: “It seems so.”

...
He hadn’t heard others discuss beggars in such a way.

“Then how do you feel about not bossing the servants around anymore?” Qing Chen asked.
