"Tell me who your master is, and I promise to protect you," Shen Li said to Mei Lan, with the same expression and a faint smile on her face, yet the feeling it gave Mei Lan was completely different from before.
With composed certainty and confidence conveyed by just one sentence, she found herself truly believing it a bit.
"It's..." Mei Lan hesitated subconsciously for a moment but then shivered and quickly said, "No, I don't have any secret master. I was selected by Mr. Situ after a thorough screening process. If I were problematic, wouldn't that imply Mr. Situ is problematic too?"
Shen Li let out a soft sigh, looking at Mei Lan with a touch of pity, "Mr. Huo will still listen to me. If I say I can protect you, I can certainly keep you safe. The master you serve is not easy to deal with; are you sure you want to tough it out to the end?"
