Ah Dai understood everything once those words were spoken. It had to be Long Qi. Long Qi was diligent and would report everything to him. Saying he was protecting her was more like he was surveilling her.
The young girl muttered, "Then you're really something."
Qin Yu heard the unhappiness in her voice, yet he didn't avoid it and directly said, "I had Long Qi follow you primarily to ensure your safety, and secondly, because I don't trust that friend of yours."
Ah Dai stopped in her tracks, "Why? Bronze Sword is my friend, and she has always been good to me."
Qin Yu countered, "What do you think?"
Ah Dai suddenly understood. He was afraid she would run away, but where could she possibly go? The incense burner was in his possession.
These were the thoughts Ah Dai dared not voice; she was somewhat afraid of Qin Yu. It was probably better not to continue on such a sensitive topic.
"So... why did you call me?"
