Lu Quan returned quickly this time, but his response was not what Cui Xian wanted to hear.
"You're undergoing training at the Imperial Military Academy's base, where all phones are required to be surrendered. How are you even making this call?"
The more Lu Quan questioned, the sterner his tone became, until it almost turned into an interrogation.
Cui Xian hadn't expected him to fixate on such a trivial point, and her frustration flared.
"It's just a phone. I can always buy a few more to keep on hand. Are you helping me or not?"
Instead of answering, Lu Quan countered, "I heard you've been stirring up trouble at the base for no reason. Is this true?"
Cui Xian immediately thought of Chi Yu, and a pang of guilt struck her.
Lu Quan despised those who abused power to bully others, especially among the privileged. Whenever such disgraceful behavior appeared in the Lu family, he dealt with it harshly.
