"Lord Qiu returned just last night, and came back again this morning, rushing through dust and wind. You must be exhausted. Why didn't you inform me, so I could arrange an escort to and from for Lord Qiu?"
Fa Hongwen tried to curry favor, but missed the mark.
"Such a small matter doesn't need to trouble Gang Leader Fa. On the contrary, my two subordinates have received Gang Leader Fa's care."
"Of course! Of course!"
These words were like a spring breeze, making Fa Hongwen quite happy, and he felt their relationship had drawn much closer.
But the next second, Qiu Xiaoping abruptly changed the subject.
"Gang Leader Fa, since Young Master Diao is here, there's no need to trouble you to summon anyone. Gang Leader Fa, in fact I have something I wish to discuss with Young Master Diao alone. I'd like to ask Gang Leader Fa to grant us this convenience."
Fa Hongwen's expression stiffened, then he nodded repeatedly.
"As you wish! As you wish!"
With that, he withdrew.
