Familiar Look

Qianji hadn't anticipated that the truth would differ from his initial expectations.

Gu Chaoyan was seeking justice for that foolish Duke North!

How absurd!

That imbecile had drugged her and caused her harm.

"It's his own problem that he died. Why should it be our concern?" Zhao Dier shouted, clearly displeased with Gu Chaoyan's involvement. "D was…"

Zhao Dier was about to reveal that Duke North had deserved his fate when Qianji swiftly interrupted her. His voice carried a dark tone as he interjected, "Duke North did approach us, seeking collaboration. However, we had nothing to offer him, so we turned him away. We never anticipated that he would encounter such an unfortunate incident. It's possible that someone from Piaomiao Pavilion is responsible. I will investigate this matter thoroughly. Please grant us some time."

Taking charge of the situation, Qianji assumed responsibility.
