Delun prepared himself as if he was about to give a speech at an important meeting. He sat straight and whole-hearted, he commenced. "I apologize for my behavior last night, and also for all the encounters we had. I just wanted to annoy Tang Quan and I neglected your standing. I'm terribly sorry." He might be kowtowing her in his imagination, but he didn't actually do it.
"Quan doesn't give a damn about me." His apology was sincere enough to bring a smile to her face. I accept your apology. But you have to tell me what medicine you took to enlighten yourself?"
"I didn't take anything. It was Jianyu Ge. He came to my room this morning to remind me of it and I came around."
"Li Jianyu? What did he say?"
"Nothing much. He just pointed out my inappropriate manner."
"And you listened to his advice?" She didn't know he was that obedient.
"His words make sense and I'm not obstinate."
