Benefactor

Weisheng couldn't just kneel silently with all the things in his head. He felt like he needed another chance to explain himself. It was already the middle of the night, but his thoughts were driving him insane. He stood from the cushion and walked out of the Ancestral Hall. 

He made his way to Xiaoling's room again. Even if she had slept already, he had to make himself clear. He couldn't see the past events repeating. He knocked at her door and stood patiently. 

She opened the door shortly and peeked out to see who it was. Upon seeing Weisheng, she instantly frowned. 

"I thought I asked you to kneel in the Ancestral Hall?" Xiaoling sneered. 

Weisheng quietly looked into her eyes. Xiaoling defensively frowned. She hadn't gotten used to his pink eyes. 

"What?" Xiaoling asked, "Is there a problem?" 

Weisheng looked down, "I'll go back and kneel. I just… I just want to talk to you first."
