บท 54: He Was Afraid

The study room was silent after An San's words. The remaining shadow guards didn't say anything as they Xi Ying's chilling smile.

Except for An Ping and Xi Ying, all of them were confused by An San's words but a shadow guard never showed his emotion on his face so no one expressed their confusion. If their master wants to let them know, then they will know soon. If not, then the matter was something that they never heard of.

Xi Ying glanced at An Ping's shocked face once and then his gaze was back to An San's lower head.

"Xi Ling was being poisoned by the physician that was brought to cure him. Was it not your duty to inform me about it?"

An San lowered his head more hearing his words and said

"My Lord, this servant is really ashamed for this matter. Young Master was being poisoned under my eyes and I didn't even know it before the Young Master himself mentioned it to me. This servant deserved to be punished."
