Gu Zhaoyan smiled. "Xiao Xian, don't talk about the Capital; look across the entire Dayan, and you won't find many zither masters as gifted as you. If you call yourself slow-witted, then everyone else might as well bang their heads against a wall and end it all."
"That is not what I meant, I..." Xiao Xian’s face flushed a soft pink. Embarrassment washed over him, and his fingers, clutching the quilt, turned white. "I fled in such a rush that I left my zither at Changfeng Tower."
"That is easily settled. Tomorrow, I will send someone to Changfeng Tower to retrieve it. As for the rest..." Gu Zhaoyan offered a warm smile. "Just focus on recovering your health. I am still waiting to hear you play."
