Hearing Chen Yuan's words, Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Hong exchanged glances and bowed with hands clasped together in unison.
Chen Yuan's brow creased ever so slightly; he truly did not wish to play the part of a lofty hero…
Afterward, the two siblings stayed in Tangshan Prefecture for another day. As their host, Chen Yuan treated them with exceptional hospitality. While he offered no rare or exotic treasures, the reception could definitely be considered lavish.
Meanwhile, throughout their interaction, Shangguan Yu detected a hint of a problem: the officials of Tangshan Prefecture were a tad too reverent toward Chen Yuan,
Even their attitudes, resembled those of personal retainers or private armies.
He did not ponder any further. There was no need. Whatever Chen Yuan did was not of great consequence to him; he simply regarded Chen Yuan as a friend.
Hmm...
He had previously thought of becoming Chen Yuan's 'big uncle', but since Chen Yuan was unwilling, he could only let it be.
