After settling Wei Qin, Meng Yunzheng thought of the young boy at the door earlier and turned to ask Xu Zhensheng, "Are you familiar with him?"
Xu Zhensheng chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Not familiar. His time in Righteous Dao Village has been short, and I didn't play with him before. But after you came over last time, two days later he found an opportunity to approach me and began subtly probing for information about you."
Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu furrowed their brows sharply, "He approached you?" With Wei Qin here, it might not be very safe.
Seeing their concern, Xu Zhensheng quickly replied, "Don't worry. Although he tried to glean information from me, he hasn't learned anything. Two days ago, he became impatient playing with me, keeps finding excuses, saying he has lots of work at home and wants to keep his distance. I reckon he fears I might probe him for information, judging by his many secrets that seem far more than mine."
