Su Ye walked over, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
Then, Song Jue took out a money pouch and tossed it in front of Su Ye.
"There are twenty thousand gold taels inside."
Su Ye nodded, taking the money pouch and putting it away.
But as she was putting it away, her hand paused, and she looked up at him.
"Twenty thousand?"
She remembered that the commission for protecting Bai Xin was one hundred thousand gold taels.
Split among six people, that was a little over ten thousand each.
Then, she heard Song Jue explain,
"The mission to protect Bai Xin was a success. The Bai Family was very satisfied, so they gave an extra twenty thousand taels as a bonus."
Su Ye nodded.
"Mm."
After her brief acknowledgment, she looked at the food laid out on the table.
Every dish was exquisite, obviously the work of a master chef.
She picked up her chopsticks, selected a piece of roast meat, and asked out of curiosity,
"Where did this food come from?"
