"Old Master Zhou, let's not beat around the bush in the presence of clear minds. Do you really think I, Lin Caisang, would wade into the murky waters of the Zhou family again? Your family has committed an endless stream of misdeeds, utterly ruining the reputation of your lineage. To have married Ninth Miss from the prefectural governor's household—it was already a great act of merit for you.
What more do you want? Do you truly believe that without the Zhou family, everyone in Qianlin County would not be able to survive? Who do you think you are, capable of flying to the heavens or burrowing into the earth?
If you had such abilities, I, Lin Caisang, would certainly be convinced. But whatever you can do, that's your family's business; it has nothing to do with the Lin Family!
