After closing the door, Su Liang entered the adjoining study room and saw Ning Jing sitting at the desk, holding a piece of stone she had picked up from the mountain today, carefully carving it.
"Meeting like this today will make people suspect that I'm a spy, leaving the city to meet with you," Su Liang sat down opposite her.
Without lifting her head, Ning Jing said, "You asked me to come."
Choking slightly, Su Liang hummed, "I'm not blaming you. I just wanted to tell you why Uncle Xing is looking for me. I told him that you're the secret guard I hired to protect me."
Ning Jing's hand paused for a moment, and she glanced at Su Liang, "I can be the secret guard you hired to protect you."
Su Liang laughed, "Great God, are you just playing word games? It's all the same."
