Cui Zhaoye felt a bit aggrieved: "No, I'm protecting you, Mr. Pei."
Pei Ye looked confused: "Protect me from what?"
Cui Zhaoye said earnestly: "Do you remember our first conversation at Huanlou, in Xunfang Garden?"
"..."
"I said back then, in my eyes, Mr. Pei, you were like a bird trapped in a cage." Cui Zhaoye sighed lightly, looking at him with eyes full of belief, "I said I would protect you."
Pei Ye remained silent, still puzzled: "Protect me from what?"
Cui Zhaoye took a deep breath and pulled him closer, as three heads came together—Qu Xin looked down at the booklet and squeezed forward, forming four heads.
"Can't you see," Cui Zhaoye whispered seriously to him, "Li Xizhou definitely has ill intentions towards you! In the past, I was insignificant and unheard, but today, with Chief Ming, Li Piaoqing, and Qu Xin all present, we can unite and exert pressure to rescue you from the cage, Mr. Pei."
