Bab 78: Vive la résistance

Yi Chen had clearly thought through this thus he didn't waste any time saying, "In return, you can have one request that I can't refuse..... As long as it's not too excessive I will do it." When Yi Chen made this offer he hadn't accurately considered the future. This blank cheque right here would become his greatest regret in the future.

Marshal Yi stared straight at his son as though gauging his attitude. It seemed this was indeed very important to Yi Chen so he agreed.
