Gu Liancheng smiled, seemingly undisturbed by the fact that she knew about him.
In his view, it didn't matter that Xiao Man knew, as she was preparing to have a frank discussion with him.
"Who are you, and why are you around Li Sinian? Are you here to talk to me about these things?"
"Sort of." Xiao Man coughed a few times.
She really shouldn't drink alcohol.
"I'm feeling a bit stuffy and wanted to talk to someone. I can't discuss these things with Qianxun, so I had to come to you. I'm sorry for dragging you into this mess, but I couldn't find anyone else at the time. It's been too long since I left the organization, and Li Sinian has protected me so tightly that I no longer have any trustworthy peers."
"Why did you choose to trust me then? You should know that there aren't many people in this world that we can trust."
"I don't know, maybe it was a gamble. But in fact, my choice proved to be correct."
