"This..." Ji Lianxing hesitated for a moment and said quietly, "Let me think about it."
"Suit yourself." Chen Mo didn't dwell on it any longer, stood up, and said, "I'll go check on Shuishui. She doesn't seem quite herself, let's not have any mishaps."
With that, he donned his robe and left the room.
Only Gu Manzhi and Ji Lianxing remained in the room, and the air became quiet.
Without a word, Gu Manzhi knelt down with a thud, bowed her head, and said, "Disciple deserves death a thousand times over, I beg Master for forgiveness!"
After all, the contract was her decision alone, signed while Ji Lianxing was in a muddled state, forcing her to hand over control of the sect. It was indeed a treacherous act.
