Good luck! [Sometimes clothing needs to be stitched together and altered. Xue Yang has a little skill in that department - though he will never admit to it. He has only sewn for himself and his Daozhang.]

I did what I was ordered to do like a faithful dog. Then when something personal cropped up, they didn't like the way I handled it. [He didn't like the way he handled it. Jin Guangyao. But Xue Yang prefers to say 'they' because Guangyao used to be a sort of...friend. Or at least an ally.] So they wanted me dead to protect their reputation.

[Morally bankrupt absolutely. Xue Yang wanders down an aisle and chooses three more tomes before he joins Linhardt, sitting on a cushion.]

I think it's more likely you will if you're a pain in the ass.
