"Brother Bai, farewell!" Jiang Ning clasped his hands.
"Brother Jiang, wait a moment!" Seeing Zhao Yulong's figure departing, Bai Luoyu suddenly spoke.
Afterward, he saw Jiang Ning's puzzled expression as he looked over, and spoke once more.
"Brother Jiang, without the Residence Master stepping in, without the Prefectural Governor showing up, would you have had the confidence to preserve yourself just now?"
Looking at Bai Luoyu's serious expression, Jiang Ning hesitated for a moment and then shook his head.
"I don't know!"
"You don't know?" Bai Luoyu murmured softly, audible only to himself.
Then, he smiled.
"Brother Jiang, let me see you off!"
Jiang Ning nodded slightly.

Jiang Ning returned to his own home.
"Young Master!" Lv Yi approached him.
"How is Master Lin?" Jiang Ning asked.
"Master is bathing!" Lv Yi replied.
Jiang Ning nodded and then said, "Come with me, help me deliver a letter to Luoshui County!"
