Doctor Wang bowed his head even lower: "I am but a servant, Auntie Tang can give me orders as she pleases."
"Ah!"
Auntie Tang let out a deep sigh. Doctor Wang had been conducting a secret affair with her for over a decade, but ever since Situ Yongjie returned to the General's Mansion, Doctor Wang had deliberately kept his distance from her, claiming he feared that Situ Yongjie might discover their secret affair and he would lose his life as a consequence. That could have been tolerated, but what was unbearable was that her lover of over a decade had betrayed her last time, leaving her heartbroken for a long while.
"There are no outsiders here, why must you belittle yourself so!"
"I am merely a servant and dare not overstep my bounds," Doctor Wang said, his eyes on his nose, his nose on his mouth, his mouth on the ground, standing there perfectly proper and not daring to move an inch.
