Familiar Figure from the Back (1)

The sudden apology from Zuo An caused Xu Weilai to raise her eyebrows. With her arms crossed, she turned and looked at Zuo An. "Why are you suddenly apologizing to me?" She asked, even though she knew the answer.

Zuo An took a step forward. He lowered his head, then looked up again at Xu Weilai. He knew she was clear of everything that was going on, but he would still give her a serious explanation, "The Butler is my father's confidant. He represents my father. My father will hear of everything that happened today. That was why I said you're my girlfriend when he asked. That was to let my father understand my stand in this matter. I apologies for saying so without your permission."

This was pretty much within Xu Weilai's expectation. She nodded, "I know, apologies accepted."

She knew that Zuo An had no choice under such circumstances, and he did it to protect her. She was grateful for what he did.
