"I heard you want to see me?" Xiao Qian pulled a chair and sat in front of him.
"Yes, I want to personally say sorry to you. I should have told you before I went to the mountainous area, but I didn't have the courage then. And now--"
Li Zhen glanced at his unresponsive legs and said painfully.
"I've received my retribution. I think I should be a man and take responsibility for my mistakes. I owe you an apology."
"Why?" Xiao Qian asked.
"Because I once loved the wrong person who caused you a lot of trouble, and I blamed you. What's even more helpless is that my mother, for my sake, did so many wrong things to you and my cousins. If one misstep leads to a series of mistakes, then it should start with me, the person who took the first wrong step, to sincerely apologize to you."
His tone was very sincere.
