"Xiao Lu..."
Song Ci arrived at the depths of the alley.
The dim lighting illuminated the woman's serene face.
He wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but he always felt that this time seeing Lu Nanjin, her face appeared much softer than before... Ever since following Gu Nanfeng to Changye to cultivate sword skills, Nan Jin's entire aura had changed.
At this moment, she stood quietly with her sword, as solid as a mountain and as deep as an abyss, much more composed than before.
"You refused Qingzhong's invitation because you want to stay in Da Du to protect my sister?"
Lu Nanjin got straight to the point.
Such directness was unexpected for Song Ci.
"Yes."
Song Ci took a light breath and answered without hesitation, "Da Du is deep water, with dangerous undercurrents... I'm staying here naturally to protect Madam!"
"If you really want to protect my sister,"
Nan Jin said calmly, "Then you shouldn't have refused Qingzhong."
Song Ci was stunned.
