Master Chang slept until five in the afternoon.
He felt ill from the drunkenness. It wasn't until after he had consumed several cups of hot water upon waking that he finally felt better. Seeing that Tan Xiao and Shen Mo had already packed their luggage, he realized they had no intention of staying long.
Master Chang pondered for a while, then sought out Tan Xiao, Shen Mo, and Bai Youwei to discuss. "Uncle Zhao's place is quite pleasant and stable, maybe I should stay here…" he proposed.
Reading their expressions, he slowly explained, "I'm older, and although I'm willing to pull my weight, I might inevitably slow you down. Perhaps it's better for me to stay here and help Uncle Zhao. What do you think?"
Tan Xiao instinctively looked at Bai Youwei.
Bai Youwei's face remained expressionless.
Tan Xiao then looked at Shen Mo.
Shen Mo's expression was equally indifferent.
