After a rather awkward experience with Zhang Mei, it seemed they should have avoided each other for a long time, but as if fate itself was against them, Xie Qing was assigned as her assistant.
"Lady Zhang Mei, the Master has sent me here to assist you in controlling the soldiers due to some disturbing actions by these people," Xie Qing's monotonous voice sounded in one of the meeting rooms, where only Zhang Mei sat, working with papers. Hearing the man's words, she looked up and frowned.
"I do not require any assistance. You may leave," she coldly replied, and her indifferent and sullen behavior seemed to worsen.
"Do not make this difficult for me, this is the Master's order…" Xie Qing sighed.
"Pfft…"
Zhang Mei snorted in annoyance but seemed to stop insisting on his departure. Xie Qing sighed in relief.
In any case, he himself did not expect this request.
