The mistake has been made, and neither repentance nor apology will change the outcome.
And even if the mistake was never made, would the result be any different?
Below the Immortal, there is no qualification to contend with the Fate of the Heavenly Dao, just as even the Supreme does not qualify as an ant in the eyes of the Immortal.
Some things should not be delved into deeply, for deep exploration leads to powerlessness and confusion.
Yanyan apologized, and although Zhou Yan's heart indeed trembled, there was no blame, because some things ultimately cannot be controlled.
The capriciousness of fate becomes more profound, the deeper the understanding, the deeper the perception.
So, Zhou Yan simply lifted Yanyan gently and then held her in his arms, without a trace of blame.
Once the mistake is made, repentance is already the best result. Punishment would only bring harm.
Moreover, Yanyan is by no means a truly unruly child, so Zhou Yan had no thoughts of rebuke or reprimand.
