Deng Chenglong stood before Sun Gang, his report delivered with a respectful tone. "Sir, your father had a meeting with that ex-son-in-law of the Gu family," he stated, prompting Sun Gang to shift his attention from the document in front of him.
Sun Gang looked directly at Deng Chenglong, signaling for him to continue. Deng Chenglong proceeded, "I don't know what was discussed, sir. I kept my distance; I didn't want your father to notice me."
Sun Gang pondered this information. "This is the second meeting. You have to find out what they are up to; I don't like surprises."
Deng Chenglong nodded. "I have also found an old master who is knowledgeable about the scroll."
"Great," Sun Gang responded. "When will he be here?"
"Tonight, sir," Deng Chenglong replied promptly.
"Good. Make sure you prepare everything he needs," Sun Gang instructed.
Deng Chenglong affirmed, "Yes, sir."
