Chapter 1449 Apology
"No matter what you do." Fang Chongzheng looked at the person in front of him steadily, "Once it is damaged, it will be difficult to restore it to its original state."

Fang Zilan quietly hid her right hand, "So, even if the Fang family is destroyed, you won't regret it?"

"Regret?" Fang Chongzheng repeated the word, "Looking at the situation today, it's far from the time to regret."

A trace of worry flashed across Fang Zilan's face. "The Fang family is now facing internal and external troubles. Even if you have outstanding means, I'm afraid you can't handle it alone."

"Lan'er, are you trying to persuade me to give up by saying these words?" Fang Chongzheng's eyes showed a little more smile, "Or are you trying to persuade myself to give up?"

Fang Zilan remained silent. The smile in Fang Chongzheng's eyes finally failed to show on his face, but turned into a sigh, "You originally had a chance to withdraw."

"The world is a chess game, and everyone in the world is like a chess piece." Fang Zilan looked calm, "I can't escape even if I don't want to."

"But now, Murong Qing has used the Silver Armor Army for you. From now on..." Fang Chong was interrupted by Fang Zilan before he could finish his words, "Do you really think so?"

"It's not important how I thought it was. What's important is that in the eyes of others, this is the fact." Fang Chongzheng's voice became a little darker, "No matter what Murong Qing's real purpose is, he used you as an excuse in a high-sounding way."

"He actually put on a good show of deep affection." Fang Zilan snorted, and Fang Chongzheng was noncommittal, "Although Murong Qing is young, he has a deep mind. You must be more careful around him."

"I am sensible, but..." Fang Zilan pursed her lips and hesitated, "Now that the Fang family has been involved, it will be difficult for you to stay alone."

"They can't kill me today, and they won't be able to kill me tomorrow." Fang Chongzheng looked calm, "Lan'er, not everyone is like you, dare to admit their crimes with blood on their hands. As long as they keep the fig leaf tightly covered, , I will be invincible.”

Hearing this, Fang Zilan said nothing and stared at Fang Chongzheng silently for a while before saying, "Since you have made up your mind, I have nothing to say."

She paused and added softly: "You... be more careful. If you have anything to do, just ask me to do it. As long as I am still breathing, no one will bully the Fang family."

Fang Chongzheng laughed dumbly, and then said seriously: "This is what I should do, your body..."

Before he finished speaking, Fang Zilan made a gesture of silence, and then raised his voice: "You are already here, why don't you show up?"

"You two have a deep love as father and daughter, how can I disturb you?" Hongtai curled her lips with a half-smile, walked in from the door, saluted Fang Chongzheng and said, "Master Fang, I have admired you for a long time."

Fang Chongzheng looked indifferent, "I have resigned. I am afraid that I cannot afford to be the boss."

Hongtai raised his eyebrows and looked at Fang Zilan, but saw that she shrugged and looked tight-lipped. On the contrary, Fang Chongzheng said to himself: "If I can't even guess the identity of the boss, I'm afraid I can’t even afford it…”

"Master Fang has a keen eye." Hongtai intercepted Fang Chongzheng's last words, but before he could say anything, he listened to him: "Since the eldest master and my daughter have something to say, I won't stay any longer."

Fang Zilan stared at Shangguan Min steadily, which made him feel extremely guilty, and he moved towards her step by step.

Fang Zilan couldn't help laughing when she saw this. "When Awan pushed you in just now, weren't you very agile? What's wrong? Are your legs weak?"

"No..." Shangguan Min walked over normally, held the medicine a little higher, and said respectfully: "Master, please use the medicine." Fang Zilan took the medicine and looked at it, "Is this medicine boiled by Awan?"

Shangguan Min nodded rapidly, and Fang Zilan chuckled, "Looking at you like this, I thought you were the one frying it, and you were afraid of getting punished if you made a mistake."

Shangguan Min's expression froze for a moment, and Fang Zilan continued, "Awan is free, why do you need to deliver the medicine?"

"I..." Shangguan Min had a bitter face, and finally sighed in self-deprecation, saying: "Master, I boiled the medicine. I was afraid that you would be angry with me, so I took over Miss Awan's job and asked her to help accompany me. If it really doesn't work, she can also plead for me."

"You asked Awan to plead for you..." Fang Zilan paused deliberately, "I'm afraid you think the punishment you're about to receive is not severe enough."

"Master, I know I was wrong." Shangguan Min admitted his mistake quickly and sincerely, "Master, please don't be angry with me."

Fang Zilan thought the first half of the sentence made sense, but was stunned when she heard the second half. "When did I ever say I was angry with you?"

Shangguan Min looked confused, but still spoke honestly: "It was Master Mo who said that. Last night during the Lantern Festival, I bought a lantern to give to you, Master, to make amends, but Master Mo said that you were angry with me and passed out drunk at Xiangsheng Restaurant. You didn't come back all night, and when you finally came back, you left in a hurry. It's rare for me to see you angry for so long, I..."

"That's enough." Fang Zilan held her forehead with her hand and interrupted him helplessly, "Whatever Mo Han says, you believe it?"

Shangguan Min wanted to nod, but seeing Fang Zilan's look of disappointment, he dared not to, so he could only whisper: "Mr. Mo is Master's cousin, so what he says can't be wrong."

"You..." Fang Zilan suddenly felt a bigger headache, and said unhappily, "Everyone makes mistakes. The ones who won't make mistakes are either unborn babies or dead people. Do you think Mo Han won't make mistakes?"

Shangguan Min was confused at first, but then she came to her senses and said in surprise, "Master, you are not angry with me?"

"Why are you angry?" Fang Zilan gnashed her teeth and said, "Did you do something wrong? Don't admit your mistakes. Even if you did something wrong, you still have to be justified."

Shangguan Min subconsciously uttered an "ah" and argued softly, "Isn't it said that it is the greatest virtue to admit one's mistakes and then try to improve?"

"That's changing, not admitting." Fang Zilan sighed faintly, "Shangguan Min, I'm not asking you to admit your mistakes, I just don't want you to admit them too often. If you keep reflecting on yourself about everything, you will doubt yourself over time and become weak and easy to bully."

Shangguan Min pursed her lips, and Fang Zilan's expression eased a little. "You said you were wrong, then let me ask you, where did you go wrong?"

"I..." Shangguan Min stammered for a long time before uttering, "I shouldn't have just run away that day. Running away won't solve any problems."

Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "Escape may not solve the problem, but it is useful. You have been running away for two days, and you are finally willing to face it, aren't you?"

Shangguan Min nodded thoughtfully and said, "Yes, some things will still happen even if I don't want to face them."

Fang Zilan let out a long sigh and said calmly, "In front of the prison gate of the Ministry of Justice, I was the one who provoked you with words first. You chose to escape at that moment, and there was nothing wrong with that. On the contrary, I am sorry for you."
