Chapter 47: Reconciliation_1

Xia Jing had just dropped Zhang Zhentian back at the Zhang Family home when Old Master Zhang, who had not yet retired for the night in his bedroom, heard the door close. He prepared to see if it was Zhang Zhentian returning. Just as he reached the bedroom door and before he could open it, he heard Zhang Zhentian say, "Xia Jing, I truly know I was wrong. Please don't leave me."

Old Master Zhang thought that Zhang Zhentian was drunkenly talking in his sleep. Then he heard Xia Jing's voice from outside the door, "Zhang Zhentian, let go."

Upon recognizing Xia Jing's voice, Old Master Zhang knew that it was Xia Jing who had brought Zhang Zhentian back. He felt there was no need to go out and disturb their conversation, so he turned around to go to sleep.

Zhang Zhentian was limp and leaning on Xia Jing's shoulder. Xia Jing pushed him, but Zhang Zhentian didn't react at all and just continued to lean there. Xia Jing had no choice but to carry him back into his bedroom.
