"Yes, yes, he's here. I've already sent for him. If you'll just wait a moment." The lobby manager quickly led Zhao Yuan to the lounge area and served him hot tea and fruit.
A few minutes later, the stout but surprisingly nimble Hao Li rushed from the kitchen into the lobby like a gust of wind. Seeing Zhao Yuan, he chuckled and said, "Little Brother Zhao, what brings you here today?"
Zhao Yuan stood and said, "I don't show up unless I need something. This time, I've come to borrow your Lingyun Pavilion."
"Borrow Lingyun Pavilion?" Hao Li was taken aback, but then he seemed to realize something. He waved away the staff in the lounge, then lowered his voice and asked, "Little Brother Zhao, are you planning on doing Alchemy in Lingyun Pavilion, or Artifact Creation?"
"Hmm?" Zhao Yuan raised an eyebrow.
'Right now, the only people who know I can perform Alchemy and Artifact Creation are the Ying Family.'
