Kuang Yinghao and the others were taken aback.
Chen Mo's father was the Right Deputy Imperial Censor at the Imperial Examination Hall, naturally a significant figure to them.
But Mr. Xu was also a Third-Level High Official, and as one of the Three Ministers and the head of the Ministry of Justice, it seemed excessive for him to be so humble to a junior, right?
