After listening to Barza’s explanation, Long Xingyu gave a sheepish smile. "I see. When I saw the boy bring back two bottles of Foundation Liquid, I was worried he might be picking up bad habits at such a young age, so I corrected his behavior. I didn't realize it was a misunderstanding."
With that dismissive remark about a misunderstanding, Long Xingyu failed to consider the heavy toll his actions had taken on Long Haochen’s heart.
"Lord Xingyu, young Long Haochen is an obedient and sensible boy," Barza said with a smile. "He usually helps his mother with her work and shares in the household chores. Most children his age in Aoting Town are little tyrants—naughty and mischievous—rarely are there any like Haochen."
