Although Cui Que had originally planned to break in through the window,
from outside, Cui Que saw the harmonious scene inside the house... that seemed far from tense.
Hence, she hesitated before knocking on the window, only to be pulled in by the Inferior after he opened it.
"The matter has been resolved,"
the Inferior began, offering unreserved praise, "Russell is quite a powerful spiritual energy hacker, perhaps even stronger than you."
——Coming from anyone else, Russell would have taken this as an attempt to sow discord.
But since it was the Inferior who said it, Russell tentatively took it that he was above the courteous flattery typical of Minister Cui Que.
Clearly, Cui Que also understood the Inferior's personality.
She cast a surprised glance at Russell, obviously relieved, "Worthy of a top scholar from Chongguang University... If it had been up to me, perhaps the Inferior and this child... this gentleman would have been in danger."
