Chen Yang happened to be cultivating in the Safety House. Seeing Yang Jing walk in with an armful of stuff, he instantly understood what had happened and couldn't help but feel helpless:
"I said I wouldn't accept gifts, didn't I?"
Yang Jing chuckled and said, "Mr. Chen, you should have seen how they looked. If you didn't accept their gifts, they were all like they'd lost a loved one, utterly distraught. If you don't accept these gifts, it means you don't trust them, and they will all feel very uneasy."
Chen Yang shook his head, feeling very helpless and somewhat puzzled by these people's way of thinking, not wanting them to lose their possessions and yet scared out of their wits.
However, since Yang Jing had brought all these things back, he naturally couldn't return them and said:
"Just leave all these things here."
Saying this, he closed his eyes and began to cultivate.
