"Master, you are being too modest! But what about the second reason? I believe you must have another one."
"The second reason..."
The master smiled, sipped his spring tea, and said, "There's no hurry, you will know in time."
Upon hearing this, Su Lang didn't press further. He clapped his hands and cheerfully ordered, "Someone, prepare wine and meat, and bring over the chest of treasures from my room!"
Thus, people streamed in, laying out wine and meat on the round table and also carrying in a chest with red lacquered wood.
Su Lang poured a cup of wine, downed it in one gulp, then picked up a tool and chopped off the lock on the chest.
"Master, look!" He opened the chest to reveal pearls, jade, and gold and silver, filling it to the brim.
"Two months ago, I led my brothers to raid a merchant caravan, and this chest, Master, is yours. After you left, I've kept this chest, waiting for your return! Fortunately, you have come back, and I truly saved the right chest!"
