Bai Chen should have expected such an excuse from the man called Wu Jinhai. Even if he had only known the man for a few days, Bai Chen could somehow read the man's character, and the best word to describe him was "lazy."
Even if Bai Chen couldn't see the man's expression because the golden mask was covering the man's face at all times, he could somehow sense the man's laziness, and that was why he shouldn't have high hopes when he waited for Zhu Ge to tell him the reason behind the man's absence during today's court meeting.
Wu Jinhai was even lazy to save others in the Forbidden Forest, so it was understandable that he didn't want to waste time standing in the Zuigao Hall listening to the old geezers speak nonsense in front of him.
Sighing heavily, Bai Chen finally returned with a reply, "So, Wu Jinhai agreed to meet me tonight? Why would he want to see me at night?"
