Captain Jin found it inconceivable that Prince Jing valued Gu Chengyu so highly that he even stood up to apologize to him. He also thought Gu Chengyu was rather ungrateful.
"Prince! You are of noble status, how can you apologize to a minister? Mr. Gu, you are quite ungrateful."
Captain Jin was somewhat upset. In fact, the Prince usually treated them subordinates very well. Hence, Captain Jin felt indignant on behalf of his Prince.
Gu Chengyu was startled and moved aside when Prince Jing suddenly made such a gesture.
Although Prince Jing's attitude seemed sincere, how could Gu Chengyu know if this wasn't just an act? His words sounded sweeter than lies, yet Gu Chengyu dared not believe them.
Furthermore, now Prince Jing needed his assistance, naturally he would treat him with courtesy. But in the future, when Prince Jing remembers losing face today, who knows if he won't resent him and seek revenge?
