"I don't think I did something that makes me become your benefactor?" Yao Ying asked in confusion. At most, he was just getting rid of the scholars. Shouldn't he get angry because he ruined his business?!
"By taking care of those scholars, Young Master has indeed saved this one's son," The old man said while sighing. He felt a bit embarrassed after admitting it.
"What happened?" Yao Ying asked in concern.
"Not to lie to all of you. One of the stupid scholars is actually this one's son. A few days ago, he got an offer regarding this matter. If he's able to finish this mission, he will get a hefty sum of money and become a standard fourth rank officer," The old man started his explanation. "He didn't care about the money, but he wanted the easy way to become an official."
