The Old Butler did not expect his carefully concealed actions to still be discovered.
His eyes flickered with panic, and he lowered his head. "Apologies, Old Master Jue."
Soon, he lifted his head again, his tone deepening. "But…"
If the three whips truly strike, the young master will be hurt!
He was just about to risk punishment to voice what he wanted to say when his wrist was grabbed by the man with a pale yet impeccably handsome face.
Li Beijue shook his head at him, signaling him not to speak. "A mistake is a mistake. I am willing to accept the punishment."
Because of his personal affairs, he had caused irreparable damage to the family and made a mistake—an undeniably grave decision.
A mistake is a mistake. Accepting punishment was only his due.
On this point, he had no objections.
So, from the very beginning, he had no intention of defending himself.
For Chi Enen, he could afford to bear the consequences!
