Chapter: 6370

Until now, Zhang Erma was more afraid of being swept away by Leaf Master and Hong Wu rather than being exposed.

When he heard Leaf Master telling him to expose himself and then go apologize to Zhou Liangyun, his entire person suddenly felt absolved.

He spoke with a quivering voice: "Thank you, Leaf Master, for showing mercy. From now on, I Zhang Erma will definitely be straightforward and honest, never again resorting to such cunning tricks. If there's another time, I'll definitely atone with my life!"

Leaf Master asked him: "I told you to apologize, but didn't say I'd show mercy to you?"

Zhang Erma spoke unconsciously: "Leaf Master... You... You just now said something that wasn't about forgiving me this time..."

Leaf Master sighed: "Zhang Erma, you are indeed clever, but I'll still say it. From now on, use your cleverness for the right path, understood?"

Zhang Erma hastily replied: "Understood! Zhang Erma understands!"

"Uh-huh." Leaf Master said calmly: "In the past, when you were still hanging out at the antique street, doing things like that wouldn't count as much. After all, your circle was all about deception and pretending, it was a survival rule for you guys, but now you're no longer in that circle, so this kind of thing can't be done anymore. If you do, you'll be breaking the rules;"

"Zhou Liangyun did indeed have an unreasonable attitude towards my father-in-law initially, but that was because my father-in-law had made a mistake first. You helped my father-in-law take revenge on him - this is a case of right and wrong not being distinguished;"

Leaf Master continued: "From now on, absolutely no more retaliation behavior towards Zhou Liangyun. If it gets out, people might think I'm the one who's without principle, instructing you to help my father-in-law settle scores. Understood?"

Zhang Erma quickly spoke up: "Leaf Master, don't worry. I'll go find Zhou Liangyun and apologize right away. From now on, absolutely no more trouble with him. Even if Xie will take me in, I won't respond to him!"

"Say that, Zhang Erma asked him carefully: 'Master Leaf, you want me to explain the situation thoroughly, so how should I say about your father-in-law's matter...?'"

Leaf Master countered: "What do you mean by 'five-one-ten'? Is it concealing something or not?"

Zhang Erma was taken aback in an instant, didn't expect Leaf Master not to prepare to help Xie Changkun cover it up either. It was only at this moment that he truly realized how much of a mistake he had made this time.

Leaf Master wasn't the kind of person who didn't distinguish right from wrong. Since his father-in-law, Xie Changkun, had made a mistake first, he wouldn't condone it. Condoning it was impossible, and even less so would he intervene for Xie Changkun's sake.

But he himself had been trying to intervene on behalf of Xie Changkun, intending to curry favor with him by doing so. Wasn't that just kissing up to the wrong person?

Thinking this through, he quickly spoke up: "Okay, Master Leaf! I understand now! I'll go to the antique street and apologize to Zhou Liangyun, then write a sincere apology letter detailing everything that happened, and post it in my friend circle. There are many old acquaintances from the antique trade in my friend circle, so when this happens, the entire Jinling antique circle will know."

As he spoke, he also reminded him tactfully: "Oh, Master Leaf! Xie Changkun is likely to be promoted to chairman soon, and if this matter gets out, although it won't call the police, it will still have a significant impact on his reputation. He'll probably find it hard to become chairman afterwards..."

"Don't worry," Leaf Master said firmly: "My father-in-law is what kind of person? I'm clearer about that than you are. If he does become chairman, it would only be a meaningless position, and wouldn't fit him anyway. It's better if he doesn't get promoted."

Zhang Erma was respectful: "Okay, Master Leaf! I understand now!"

Leaf Master was satisfied: "Good, then wait for me to see how you perform."

"Don't worry," Leaf Master said: "Soh Chan-koon is currently on a plane to Dubai, he gave me a deadline and asked me to give him a clear reply after his flight. I need you to bring back that bronze Buddha from the Northern Song dynasty, if you can't do it, he might come looking for you to ask for help."

"Don't worry." Leaf Master said: "When the time comes, I'll make sure he knows how difficult it is and will retreat. Additionally, when he causes trouble for you, don't be too soft and yield to him just because of my face. In the long run, it will only lead to his more self-loss and deviation."

Leaf Master paused slightly and continued: "I'm telling you, Zhang Erma, this time we're lucky not to have caused any loss to others. If you had actually sold that fake goods for tens of thousands, people would come after you, and you two might end up in trouble!"

Zhang Erma's heart was filled with fear, and he quickly adjusted his attitude: "Leaf Master, don't worry about Soh Willong coming to me again. I won't respond to him or help him do anything from now on!" JrNovels.com
