Zhang Lu's words were straightforward, but they were all facts and made some sense.
She stared intently at Mengyao and said seriously, "I told you so much for one purpose: to consult with me when making decisions. Don't you trust me? I even know Ye Fan's identity, so what if I know about other things?"
"It's not that I don't trust you. After all, your identity and position are different, and I'm afraid of putting you in a difficult spot. I also want someone to discuss things with, so I don't act unilaterally since I might overlook something," Mengyao explained.
"Your thoughts are just like Ye Fan's; no wonder you two make a pair," Zhang Lu said with a bitter smile.
Mengyao didn't argue on this point, but asked with concern, "Is Gu Qiong in any danger?"
"Certainly not. Gu Qiong made a mistake on the Tang Family's territory. All the Tang Family wants is an apology; they won't resort to drastic actions," Zhang Lu said confidently.
