Once back in her room, Yun Xi read through the information that Quan Zongrui had given her as she spoke to Mu Feichi over the phone.

"How dare he do that? I'll have him hanged!" the man at the other end of the line scolded.

"Oh? You sure sound cute when you're jealous."

The man at the other end of the line sighed and finally said, "Fine. Be careful."
