Out on the road, no one dawdled over their meals. After making short work of the food, they were led to their rooms by an inn servant.
As a Commander-in-Chief, Chen Ping'an naturally got his own room, and it was the best one in the inn.
"Hmph! Just a bunch of posers. All show and no substance."
Seeing Chen Ping'an and his group leave, three burly, fleshy-faced men sneered.
"That's right, they just look intimidating! I wouldn't have given up my seat!"
"Probably some young master from a rich family out seeing the world! Look at him, all pale and delicate, looks like a gust of wind could knock him over! I guess it's understandable he'd bring a few extra guards when traveling!"
The three men chatted amongst themselves, occasionally shooting glances at the two men who had just given up their table.
"A pair of cowards! Giving up their seats just like that."
