Avina clenched her mouth and grind her teeth. She wasn't an idiot and could see what kind of scheme Minister Ji had in mind.
Unfortunately, 5025 was not so smart and focused on Avina's cussing. 'It's not good to cuss!'
'It's also not good to lie yet the man did it right in front of me,' Avina grumbled. She folded her arms and slammed herself into the chair. 'What am I? Gullible?'
5025 was confused. 'What did he lie about? I thought he cared deeply about Ji Fanyin.'
'He cares about what secret Ji Fanyin is carrying,' Avina corrected it. She pointed out, 'Ji Fanyin warned me that her father would visit me soon. And then, he really did. She already spilled her motive - and if they are true - Minister Ji is well-aware of them. He wants her to go home so he can properly shut her mouth.'
'Really?' 5025 exclaimed in shock. It didn't think the truth would be so complex.
Avina stood up. 'I need to see Ji Fanyin and ask some more questions.'
