Duan Rong had not cared much about this matter to begin with. At the end of the day, it was no more than a minor setback.
But some things, if not brought into the open, were merely a gust of wind—once they passed, they passed.
Yet once they were laid out in the open, even a sesame-seed-sized matter could sometimes crush a person to death!
Hearing this, Luan Jingfu gave a cold snort and turned toward Ruan Fengshan, seated in the broad, towering chair. "Since Duan Rong is an apprentice escort of our Yuan Shun Escort Agency, he first broke the rules by privately going out to sell paintings. That alone is enough to expel him."
"Worse still, he nearly caused a fatal incident in the street, stirring up a storm throughout the city and smearing mud on the face of our Yuan Shun Escort Agency."
"And this boy is still standing here now, wagging his clever tongue, saying how fortunate it was that there had been no danger and no loss of life... This alone shows how treacherous and vicious his character is."
"With these two points alone, not only should he be expelled, his Dantian should be crippled as well! That way, he will not stir up trouble outside and then claim he learned his arts here, only for the blame to be laid upon our Yuan Shun Escort Agency!"
When Luan Jingfu mentioned learning his arts here, his eyes flicked toward Xiao Zongting.
Duan Rong felt a chill run through his heart!
This Luan Jingfu really was a master at fabricating charges!
But Duan Rong also knew that his matter could be made big or made small.
If it was blown up, then just as Luan Jingfu said, he would be guilty of every evil under heaven.
