"Captain Lan, for what reason does Leader Lei wish to see me?"
Xiao Mu asked as he followed Lan Cai out of the ancient palace.
Lan Cai explained, "It's about your assignment. Leader Lei has something to tell you."
Recalling how Lan Cai's timely arrival had thwarted Jiang Mu's accusations against him, Xiao Mu said gratefully, "Captain Lan, thank you for coming just in time, otherwise I might have really been framed by Jiang Mu."
Lan Cai waved her hand dismissively, "Don't overthink it, I just happened to be passing by. I never thought that Jiang Mu would try to frame you at this time. Speaking of which, Xiao Mu..."
She suddenly turned to face him, "When will you fulfill your promise and let me borrow that magic treasure?"
"Magic treasure?"
After a brief pause, Xiao Mu said, "I could lend it to you now, but as we agreed, I can only lend it to you for seven days, not a day more."
"What? You actually got the magic treasure?"
