"How did she even know she was being followed?" Xia Luna questioned, pulling her legs under her on the couch.
Cheng Yu put aside the freshly squeezed orange juice she was drinking, realization downing on her. "That woman…"
"What woman?" Xia Luna asked.
"Li Xiyan's assistant. I didn't think she would back out."
Cheng Yu went ahead to explain how she had got Li Xiyan's assistant to collaborate with her. She had already heard rumors about Li Xiyan bullying her assistant. Using this and promising to help her pull away from Li Xiyan, she got the woman to agree to keep an eye on Li Xiyan.
"She even tearfully thanked me for promising to help her. I didn't think she would turn on her word."
Xia Luna rubbed her temples. "How naive can you get? Just because she thanked you, you think she was being sincere and would betray her master for you? Do you even know why she is still working for Li Xiyan despite being tortured?"
