An Tianqi was clearly stunned upon hearing that but then heard Chen Yuan continue to say,
"You didn't do anything wrong, so you don't need to apologize to me."
"And for the others, if they want to apologize, they should come over in person."
"However, even if they apologize, I might not accept it."
Chen Yuan finished speaking, shook his hand, and paid no more attention to An Tianqi.
Though the actions of the An family patriarch and An Ning hadn't caused him any actual harm, he was, after all, Heavenly Venerate, not someone to be offended at will.
He walked over to Lin Rong, assessed his injuries, and saw that they weren't serious.
Chen Yuan felt satisfied with Lin Rong's conduct today and nodded at him.
An Tianqi, however, did not expect Chen Yuan to be so firm in his stance; his own apology had gone unanswered.
In Qingzhou, or even in Lingnan Province, very few people dared to speak to him in such a tone.
