Chapter 49
As their eyes met, they were both dumbstruck. Cheng Dalei's face was flushed, wishing he could crawl into a hole.
"...I..."
"Master, I was wrong. I shouldn't have come here."
Cheng Dalei was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed dramatically, and he said sternly, "I trusted you, yet you used the money from the Mountain Fortress to come to a place like this!"
"Master, I was just passing by and came in to take a look."
"Passing by? I've been following you the whole time, I don't believe you!"
"Master, I was wrong. Please don't tell Ling'er. I'll leave now."
"Alright." Cheng Dalei patted his shoulder: "I'm not unscrupulous. Since you're here, why not look around and see how ugly they truly are."
A look of joy spread across Xu Shenji's face as he nodded his head vigorously.
