The drinking party lasted deep into the night before it finally broke up. As they were leaving, Guo Dingtian respectfully asked, "Lin Xiao, do you have time tomorrow at noon?"
"What is it?"
"My father heard you were in Shengjing and would like to invite you for a meal!"
"Maybe next time. I have to return to Jinling City tomorrow."
Guo Dingtian nodded helplessly. When his father learned that Lin Xiao was in Shengjing, he had immediately insisted that Guo Dingtian should spare no expense to invite him over for a visit. Guo Dingtian had assumed that since he was Lin Xiao's student, he would be shown some consideration. He never expected Lin Xiao to refuse him outright.
A wave of dejection washed over Guo Dingtian, but he didn't press the matter. After all, Lin Xiao was the Dragon Lord; he wouldn't dare say more.
