Jian Shichu patted her back and signaled her to be calm.
He glanced at Qian Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, and said indifferently, "Stand up, if you have done nothing wrong, why kneel?"
"Thank you, Young Master!" Qian Yuan kowtowed to Jian Shichu before retreating to the side, feeling somewhat more at ease.
Ever since the incident occurred, his heart had been suspended in midair.
He feared becoming a scapegoat.
A sacrifice in the struggle for power between two factions.
But hearing the certain tone in Jian Shichu's voice just now, his heart had finally settled.
His new master was different from his former masters.
He had fulfilled his promise to his new master, bringing Ye Qingci back unharmed; he was now a bodyguard of the Jian family.
His new master would take him under his wing, protecting him, and not let him become a casualty of power struggles.
