Su Mu said with a cupped fist salute.
"No need for formalities."
Wang Guan waved his hand dismissively. "Brother Su, we meet again! Have you missed me? I've been thinking about you day and night."
Su Mu: "..."
He subconsciously took a small step back from Wang Guan.
'That's the kind of talk that could easily cause a misunderstanding.'
'He certainly had no... peculiar preferences of that sort.'
"You have no idea, Brother Su. Ever since we last met, I've been thinking of you constantly. I only came to be the Sima of South City for you."
Wang Guan continued, completely oblivious to how inappropriate his words sounded.
