After a long while, he looked over from behind the bowl, his eyes cold as he stared at Fu Zhen: "Why did you so casually speak of such a secret matter?"
"I am not casual. I only spoke of it to the General." Fu Zhen answered earnestly.
Pei Zhan narrowed his eyes: "Then why did you only tell me?"
Fu Zhen replied calmly: "Of course, it's to clear up the misunderstanding from that night outside the Liang Mansion. After explaining this matter, it should prove sufficiently that I have no ill intentions towards the Liang Family.
"My mother is just a frail woman, and she even extended a helping hand to Miss Liang that night, protecting her. From that point of view, the Liang Family owes my mother a favor.
"As the daughter of such a kind-hearted woman, isn't it reasonable for me to care for the brave yet unfortunate Miss Liang and visit her family?"
This child is truly not easy to fool.
One wrong move and he'd spot the flaw.
