Manny's appearance and his abrupt question caused Fang Xingjian to be momentarily stunned. However, he did not show any transformations to his expression, and merely sat behind his desk as usual. He turned to Manny with both of his eyes closed and asked, "You're looking to have a chat with me so late at night?"
Manny smiled, as if he was unconcerned with his earlier question. Merely, when the smile finally left his face, he became extremely solemn, with no traces of the previous smile.
"Originally, I had not wanted to approach you with this matter, but it is even more awkward for the old man to come.
"But someone has to do it."
Fang Xingjian frowned and asked, "What on earth is it about? Stop going around in circles and just say it."
Manny smiled bitterly and said, "Kaunitz is the only son of Tresia Clan's clan head."
