Hearing Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi couldn't help but recall the past hour, when Lady Jin had whispered those pieces of intelligence and speculations about Fang Ze into her ear.
Momentarily, she regained her senses, looked at Fang Ze, and then nodded, saying, "Yes."
Seeing Bai Zhi's somewhat indifferent expression, Fang Ze also felt a bit awkward.
After all, lending the amulet to Bai Zhi wasn't entirely without ulterior motives: he was always preoccupied with Bai Zhi's Enhanced *5 Noble Fusion method.
If Bai Zhi hadn't discovered it, it would have been fine; he could have quietly taken it back, and the matter would have ended there.
Now that Bai Zhi had discovered it, he naturally needed to find a reason to explain: after all, secretly hiding valuable items in gifts always gives off a sinister impression.
His mind quickly churned, recalling the words he had said during a conflict with Lady Jin, and he suddenly felt resolute.
