Looking at the young girl's worried face, the man put down the files in his hand, and his cold demeanor gradually softened.
"Come."
Lin Jiaojiao came to her senses and saw him gesturing to her, so she hurriedly approached him.

The man embraced her into his arms, gently calming her emotions, "Be good, Jiaojiao doesn't have to worry about these matters, I will handle them."
Although it was all expected, it was still irksome.
"Hmm." Lin Jiaojiao obediently nodded, knowing that being more compliant at this time would put him at ease.
But she knew that she must seize the time.

"Ouch, why are there suddenly so many guards? Are we going to war?" People on the street were discussing the sudden increase of guards in the Capital.
Someone said, "There's no way we're going to war, right? We haven't heard any news from the border."
