Qu Zhen knew that there was no point beating around the bush with Master Zhai. Master Zhai was not easy to fool.
"Apologize?" Master Zhai repeated before he turned his head to ask his subordinate: "What day is it today?"
"The sixth."
"Oh? What month?"
"October."
"Is that so? Apparently, I'm not becoming crazy because of my old age. It's only been a month since the Loyalty Alliance betrayed the Zhai family. I didn't expect so much time to pass already," Master Zhai commented.
His words implied that it had already been a month since their betrayal. If that was the case, why were they apologizing right now? What kind of apology was this?
Sheng Yingying hurriedly explained: "Master Zhai, you can't completely blame us for what happened. You did not inform us about what was happening to Master Sheng. We all assumed he was a dying man. That's why we decided to form an alliance with Qin Chuan."
