City Lord Ye was speechless.
In her younger days, the young prodigies all carried themselves with extraordinary composure and charming elegance.
A mere gesture or step could induce the screams of countless girls.
In her eyes, Lu Ran's strength far surpassed those fellows.
But the problem was, she somehow felt that the young man before her was somewhat slick-tongued and frivolous.
For a moment, City Lord Ye couldn't understand. Perhaps she had been so seldom traveling the continent that she couldn't keep up with the current trends.
"Enough," she said.
"Don't do that again next time."
"The tree that stands out in the forest is often blown down by the wind. Although you come from an extraordinary background, you must learn to act with discretion. That's how you'll better protect yourself."
"No matter if it's the power behind you, your parents, or even me, your master, we can't protect you all the time."
"I understand," Lu Ran nodded earnestly.
But it couldn't be helped.
