The silent showdown between the two men seemed to stretch on for a lifetime, come but it had only been a few seconds.
they were considered old bachelors at 17 or 18 years old—this was an irrefutable fact—without any marriage prospects in sight. Yet the two old bachelors were having the most immature standoff.
Their peers were taking care of two or three children plus a wife and if they were a bit wealthier, they might have a few wives. But again, here were two bachelors, handsome ones at that.
To be fair, this showdown was a completely one sided staring match. Xu Zeng still felt bad about the way he acted, but his honor as a ger was now at stake! His very heritage!
He was a proud demon beast of amazing lineage, and now his integrity was being taken into question. He had no reason to lie!
