The Arbiter took a deep breath before pouring tea into their cups. It looked like he had a long conversation planned ahead of him. Weisheng and Xiaoling quietly accepted the tea he poured them, sipping it slowly.
"Big Brother," The Arbiter called Weisheng without reservations. Xiaoling quietly judged the two. They weren't even hiding their closeness from her anymore. "You asked us to look into Hai, a disciple of Liuli Sect, did you not?"
Xiaoling frowned immediately and looked at Weisheng for an explanation. Weisheng was caught off-guard. He didn't think the Arbiter would dare slander him in front of his master and ex-lover.
"I did," Weisheng muttered with frustration, "Why do you bring it up now?"
The Arbiter clasped his hands and bowed, "We meant no harm. We simply wanted to know why you asked us to look into him."
Weisheng cleared his throat, trying to keep his attention away from Xiaoling's furious expression.
