The arrival of Zhao Xuanqi and Yang Zhongliang seemed to go unnoticed by this man. He maintained a meditative posture, his gaze cast downward, like an old monk deep in a trance. He always stayed within five steps of the middle-aged man, just like a shadow.
The old butler started to step forward and announce them, but Yang Zhongliang stopped him. Only after the middle-aged man had finished a set of wellness exercises did Yang Zhongliang finally speak up with a smile, "Mr. Yan, my apologies for the intrusion."
"Haha, Boss Yang is here! My apologies, I was completely absorbed just now. I hope you'll forgive my neglect."
Hearing the voice, Yan Shuntao turned and greeted Yang Zhongliang with a hearty laugh.
Then, Yang Zhongliang, smiling, led Zhao Xuanqi over to Yan Shuntao.
However, just as Zhao Xuanqi and Yang Zhongliang came within five steps of the man who seemed to be in a trance...
SWOOSH!!
