บท 288: Corrupted core

Old Master Song was very dissatisfied with the way Situ Yaoyue stopped him from speaking any further but he still continued to smile as he looked at the woman who was sitting in front of him.

" I understand," he spoke in a voice that was softer than before, his voice full of understanding as he looked at Situ Yaoyue who was trying her best to stay calm in front of this marriage match that was years older than her. " I was rude just now please forgive me—— oh dear," he added when his cane fell on the floor, his servant reached for it but Old Master Song stopped him, " I have it under my control."

The servant who was supposed to be taking care of Old Master Song stopped in his tracks and then took a step back while Old Master Song disappeared under the table and then came right back up but in his hurry, his shoulder knocked into the edge of the circular table causing the teacup that was sitting in front of Situ Yaoyue to tumble.
