Walking out of the gates of the Garrison Commandant's Office, Zeng Jihe felt as if he were in a dream. Thinking about how he had followed Chen Ping'an out, he couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.
Though it hadn't been his intention, the act of leaving with Chen Ping'an had undoubtedly offended Constable Zheng.
At this thought, a pained expression appeared on Zeng Jihe's face.
"What? Regretting it already?" Chen Ping'an remarked, having noticed Zeng Jihe's expression. 'To be honest, his reaction is perfectly normal. Here at the Nanquan Alley Town Patrol Office, who would dare to offend a Constable?'
Zeng Jihe didn't answer. Right now, he just felt like crying.
"If you regret it, you can still go back now," Chen Ping'an said with a smile.
At Chen Ping'an's words, Zeng Jihe's expression grew even more pained. 'How can I possibly go back now? All I can do is see this through to the bitter end.'
