Chapter 584: Thoroughly Resolved

Fan Wenxuan retreated once more.

Gu Ya smiled, a smile that was somewhat chilling.

"Fan Wenxuan, you are a scholar, you know how important a scholar's reputation is. Now your reputation is ruined in the village. Tell me, if I relate these things of yours to your classmates and master at the town school, after they hear it, what will they think? What about your career prospects? Do you think you will have any chance to sit for the imperial examination again?"

Fan Wenxuan studied in town, and if these matters were to reach the school, not only would he be expelled by the master, but he would also lose the qualification even to take the imperial examination.

With his heart suddenly turning ice-cold, Fan Wenxuan's face turned ashen pale. Having just been disadvantaged, he now feared that his career was truly ruined.
