Tonight, he had saved Wang Wu and dealt Yan Sichen a heavy blow, but he hadn't managed to capture a single person alive.
The Jing'an Guard had also suffered considerable casualties.
For Young Master Pei, a break-even was as good as a loss.
Worse, he was now out several of his men.
This put him in a foul mood.
He was furious, and he needed a way to blow off some steam.
"You've worked hard tonight, Madam. Go and rest," Pei Shaoqing said first to Liu Yuheng upon arriving home. He then turned to Zhao Zilan, who was trailing behind. "Lan'Er, come with me."
Flustered, Zhao Zilan looked to her master.
"Is there something you need from Lan'Er, Young Master?" Liu Yuheng said with a radiant smile. "She's exhausted tonight as well. Why not let her rest? I, on the other hand, can still manage. I can take care of anything you need."
