He instantly knew what was going on and got furious. But he couldn't say anything.
Nezha 'worked hard' at Long Ji's place for eight days, then wandered around for a bit. On the ninth day, he lazily made his way back to the Palace of the Polestar to report.
Hao Tian glared at Nezha, gnashing his teeth in frustration. How could anyone behave so brazenly?
Nezha didn't care about Hao Tian's opinion. If you annoy me, I'll make sure you're even more annoyed. That had always been his way—pliable when coaxed, but never when pressured.
"Reporting to the Great Venerable: after several days of diligent investigation, some clues have come to light in the case."
Hao Tian: "..."
Diligent investigation? My foot. You were 'diligent' on my daughter, weren't you!
