Grandmaster Liu was slightly startled; he clearly hadn't expected her to initiate a conversation.
He neither agreed nor disagreed with the proposal and after pondering for a moment, he said to Qi Yu, "The Princess's friend must also be no ordinary person; how could I possibly refuse to meet him?"
Qi Yu smiled, half in earnest, half in jest, and said, "Indeed, my friend is quite exceptional; I only hope that when the Grandmaster meets him, you won't be startled."
Upon hearing this, Grandmaster Liu's gaze flickered slightly, and he chuckled before replying, "With the Princess speaking so, it certainly arouses my curiosity about this person."
Qi Yu smiled without saying a word, yet she thought to herself that sometimes curiosity did kill the cat, old Grandmaster.
With Qiu Lian and Liu Yan involved, this matter truly didn't fall to the Capital Governor Mansion to investigate.
