Dressed in a simple T-shirt paired with light-colored jeans, her long hair was tied back in a ponytail with a black hairband.

"Master! I have been blind to greatness and not only misunderstood you but also slandered you. I am truly sorry," Mrs. Pei kowtowed repeatedly. "Please, please save our family!"

Mrs. Pei, too frightened to continue kneeling, quickly got up and ushered her inside. "Please, Master, come in."

Mrs. Pei scolded him sharply, "It's 'Master', not 'Miss Si'!"
