Liu Zhizhong's words almost brought Li Tanglu to tears.
So grateful for this young man!
I, Li Tanglu, am fine!
However, on the surface, Li Tanglu said, "No, no, no, I am not innocent. I raised my nephew improperly, failed to teach him morals. I'm responsible! Second Miss Xiang is so magnanimous and compassionate, truly discerning right from wrong!"
Liu Zhizhong nodded, "Indeed! Ever since I've known Second Miss Xiang, she has been a warm-hearted, simple, lively, and humane person. In my heart, she is the number-one goddess of the Southern Country!"
"Mmm, mmm, mmm, a goddess, definitely a goddess! Zhizhong, when you go back, tell Second Miss Xiang that she can make any request she desires. Li Tanglu will comply without a second word, and so will that brute Chen Yuanyuan, resolutely carrying it out!"
Li Tanglu also followed suit with praise, for too many good words never hurt. Liu Zhizhong would surely report back truthfully, right?
