"After we get to the capital, the Xu Group's situation will be hanging by a thread, and a lot of people are eyeing the seats you and I are sitting in. They'll think of every possible way to hurt us. I don't want you to be in any danger, do you understand?"
Hearing Xu Ke say this, Xiao Keyi finally understood: the man in front of her was doing all this so she wouldn't suffer any harm. But since she'd chosen to face everything with him, she would protect herself, and she would also protect Xu Ke.
Her heart suddenly felt incredibly warm. So this is what a sense of security feels like—having someone by your side at any moment who can share the burden for you. She'd finally found the person her mother had always hoped she would.
"Don't worry, I definitely won't fail to protect myself. Besides, we haven't even arrived at the Xu Group yet, right? And we've got Grandpa to testify for us. Anyway, I'll trust you."
