Yellow-Inlaid Ruyi

After a moment of silence, Old Fei spoke. "Little Chu, after what happened, I no longer have the face to restore your ancient zither. This... you'd better ask Old Liu to find you another zither restorer!"

To be honest, he had originally planned to recommend a zither restorer to Chu Chen himself. But thinking about what had just happened, he felt deeply ashamed. When the words reached his lips, he changed his mind.

Chu Chen hurriedly said, "Old Fei, you're you, and he's him. I still trust you very much. Just leave the ancient zither with you for restoration!"

After what had happened, Chu Chen instead felt that there shouldn't be much risk in letting Old Fei restore the zither. Even if Fei Yu still had such thoughts, he would think carefully before acting and consider whether he could withstand Chu Chen's fury.

"Little Chu, thank you for still trusting me so much. But if you leave the ancient zither with me, I really won't be able to rest easy!"

Old Fei shook his head with a bitter smile. Although he had just said that he wouldn't let Fei Yu return to his place, he could indeed make good on that promise. But one shouldn't forget that Old Mrs. Fei was still at home. Although she had said that, the moment Fei Yu pleaded with her, her heart would soften. Therefore, he truly couldn't feel at ease restoring the zither at his place, nor could he shoulder that responsibility.

"This..." Seeing the look of utter despair on Old Fei's face, Chu Chen found himself in a difficult position. It wasn't that he couldn't find another zither restorer. It was just that Uncle Wu had told him yesterday that Old Fei's zither-restoration skills ranked among the very best in the country.
