On the way home, Mu Qianxun was in particularly good spirits.
Humming a little tune.
Joy spilling out from the melody.
Ou Zun glanced at her, "You seem very pleased that I fought with Qin Shen."
She nodded repeatedly, then quickly shook her head.
"It's not for that reason. It's because I've always felt that if I had a falling out or argument with Lu Lingxi or Qin Shen, you wouldn't stand up for me."
Ou Zun fell silent.
The air grew quiet.
"I'll protect you. This time, Qin Shen was in the wrong."
Mu Qianxun slightly paused.
His words carried several implications.
First, should she have a rift with Qin Shen or Lu Lingxi, Ou Zun would protect her. But how he would do so depended on the situation, for example, it wasn't likely that he would resort to physically confronting Qin Shen or Lu Lingxi.
Second, this time Qin Shen was in the wrong.
Indeed, it was Qin Shen's fault.
