Yang Qing could feel his heart race, and a sense of dread wash over him like that of a lamb that suddenly senses a wolf stalking it.
With stiffened muscles, Yang Qing turned around, trying to hide the reflexive fear from his face as he answered,
"I didn't think you'd be waiting for me, head Lei Weiyuan. I am deeply honored and humbled that you would pay me such attention despite the amount of work on your plate. I am both deeply touched and overwhelmed by the attention.."
Yang Qing cupped his fists with an air of politeness and admiration radiating from his entire demeanor. One would not believe he was facing the person who had haunted him and given him nightmares that were even more terrifying than heart demons. His present demeanor made it seem he was talking to his grandfather, whom he so greatly revered.
