Chapter 219

Qu Jiujiang was utterly humiliated, his face was swollen and flushed with embarrassment. He stood there on the spot, awkwardly laughing.

"This narrow-minded, unlearned man definitely spent a lot of money to buy this poem from a pedantic scholar, intending to draw attention to himself today. I bet he never even pondered that his true colors would be unveiled by me, which led to his fury. He verbally expressed his displeasure and resentment, which is troublesome, yet amusing, and certainly not appropriate for a dignified gathering."

Qu Jiujiang forced out two dry laughs as he surveyed the room. Finding no one supporting him, he turned around and came face to face with a room full of stares evidently expressing the sentiment, "Don't you see you are making a fool of yourself?"

His facial expression was far from expressing mere verbal disapproval; it showed that he intended to physically act upon his indignation.
