The meal laid out before the participants was modest, a far cry from the extravagant feasts they had become accustomed to.
Even the once abundant offerings from the greenhouse had dwindled, a reflection of the changes that had befallen Nanshan Estate since Xu Feng's absence.
This was the food directly served to Xuan Jian, the only one of the three original masters of the Nanshan Estate after it became a Xu family property.

Si and San moved quickly as they each thought about the uncertain future of the estate.
