A single divination costing ten thousand gold, Cui Shixue naturally couldn't afford it, but he promised that as long as Qin Liuxi was willing to help, the Grand Preceptor Wen agreed to repay the debt along with the extra two thousand taels of interest, all of which could be given to Qin Liuxi.
Cui Shixue faced Qin Liuxi's half-smiling gaze and awkwardly said, "Although it seems like I'm taking advantage of you, I do beg for the temple master Hai Dashan's help."
The dignified Second-Rank Official was humbling himself before a woman young enough to be his daughter. If this got out, it would surely make people laugh off their teeth.
But such was the reality: if you need help, you must adopt a begging attitude.
Seeing that he was lowering himself, Qin Liuxi didn't make things difficult for him and said, "Lead the way ahead."
Cui Shixue breathed a sigh of relief, wiping the imaginary cold sweat from his brow. Truly, begging for help was even more stressful than collecting debts.
