Once everything was packed and settled, Su Shi'an led Wujin and Luo Chu toward the foot of the mountain to check on the progress of the workshop construction. When they arrived, the scene before them was startling: the ground had been cleared neatly enough, but it was also cluttered with a chaotic pile of timber and stone needed for the build.
Luo Chu frowned, trying to dissuade them: "An'an, it's far too messy here. We should head back! It won't be too late to come and see it in a few days, so let's avoid any accidents. And you two, be careful! Especially you, Wujin—don't go running around..."
Su Shi'an, however, turned a deaf ear to his warnings and continued to navigate cautiously through the narrow gaps between the stacks of lumber with Wujin. Luo Chu was filled with anxiety, terrified that one of them might twist an ankle. Yet, he didn't dare to scold them too loudly—he knew he was outnumbered and likely wouldn't win an argument—so he could only keep offering earnest, persistent advice.
