Hao Ren had a good meal with his wife, and then he returned to the accommodations only to find Den standing by the door with a middle-aged man. Watching Hao Ren's arrival, the middle-aged man slapped the back of Den's head and said, "Wastrel, why are you not kneeling before Master Ren?"
Hao Ren was surprised at the display, but the next moment, Den sat down on the ground without any resistance. The young man asked, "What is going on?"
The middle-aged man stepped forward and bowed as he said, "Master Ren, I am Dan Yulin, this wastrel son of mine has offended you, and so I came here to seek your forgiveness."
Hao Ren sighed and said, "It was nothing, I don't wish to escalate this issue and nor do I have the time to waste here, you can leave. As a senior, it is really not right for you to come and bow to me. Sending Den would have been enough."
