The crowd, initially onlookers, were all shocked.
They had never imagined that the young man, unremarkable in appearance and dressed in street stall clothes, was actually a prestigious guest of Old Sir An.
Even Old Sir An had personally come down and offered an apology!
This made the crowd unable to believe their eyes, and for a moment, the hall fell silent.
Shortly after, the scene erupted into murmurs and discussions, then they all turned to gaze at Xia Jiba, who stood motionless.
Xia Jiba's face turned iron blue; he couldn't walk away nor could he stay.
Although he hadn't openly told anyone to "get out," the incident had started because of him, and Old Sir An hadn't spared his feelings at all, leaving him unable to advance or retreat.
