As she curiously scrutinized him, Xiaobei heard him speak softly.
"Some people look at the surface, but I look straight into the heart. That's why I can see a lot of things that others can't."
Upon hearing such a frank response, Xiaobei's eyes lit up, "Oh, that's really impressive."
"It's alright, but sometimes seeing too much isn't necessarily good."
Hearing such a forlorn remark, Xiaobei knew this person had truly experienced many things in the past.
Many of those experiences must have been quite unhappy for him.
Realizing she still didn't know who he was, Xiaobei quickly and directly asked, "By the way, may I ask who you are?"
"I'm just a gatekeeper, so it's not important! This place used to be very bustling, and I've witnessed life's various facets here. But now, it's completely silent. Since you have connections with the Cao Family, you should know what this place is."
