Ye Chenghong bent over and reached out a hand, steadying the arms of the two, with a deft move, An Zisheng, and Kong Shi couldn't help but stand up on their own.
"I understand the gratitude both of you feel, but there's no need for kneeling and thanks," said Ye Chenghong with a gratified smile. "I have a karmic bond with Girl Qing, and we became master and disciple. Over the years, she has been very filial by my side and added much color to my life. I've always treated her as my own. As long as she is happy, this old man will be content!"
"Master..." An Yiqing, upon hearing Ye Chenghong's heartfelt words, looked at him with moved eyes, welling up with tears.
At this moment, Old Master An approached with Old Lady An, smiling kindly at Ye Chenghong.
