The trace of joy that had risen in his heart after slaying his enemies quickly dissipated.
Shen Changchuan could almost imagine it: the moment he became famous, the news spread, and it reached the Shen Family Mansion, what immense trouble it would bring him!
'That First Madam is not someone to be trifled with!'
"Er, Young Friend Shen, what's the matter?"
Noticing that Shen Changchuan's expression seemed a little off, Si Houqing quickly reacted and asked.
"Um, Shopkeeper Si, about what happened in this battle... I wonder if you could keep it a secret?"
"Why is that?"
Si Houqing was taken aback.
'Shouldn't a fifteen-year-old be full of vigor, eager to make a name for himself in the world?'
'What young man doesn't like fame?'
"Sigh, it's a bit complicated... The main reason is that I am not without enemies within my clan."
"Making a name for oneself is certainly a good thing, but you can't stop others from growing envious!"
