At half-past ten at night, Ren Zhong finally met the fashionably late Ma Xiaoling in the Fourth Level Virtual Reality training space.
As soon as they met, she repeatedly apologized, explaining that she was delayed because she had called an online meeting with the Guard to discuss countermeasures for the rising cost of military supplies.
Ma Xiaoling concluded, "Believe me, it's not that I'm too embarrassed to face you, trying to hide and delay purposefully."
Ren Zhong nodded, "Of course."
"Wow, you really trust me that much?"
Ren Zhong turned his head away, particularly not wanting to speak.
That's because I know you're just heartless!
If you really felt so ashamed for accidentally hurting your own people to the extent that you wanted to avoid our scheduled training, you wouldn't be you!
Ren Zhong finally wearily said, "Yes, I totally trust you."
"You're truly not angry?"
