Night Time Discussions

Hui Yue said nothing as he observed every change on the City Lord’s face. The relationship between himself and the City Lord was currently not the best.

The reason Hui Yue dared speak like this to the City Lord was partly because of what he had heard about this older man from Gao Yan, and also because he could not afford to be an enemy of the City Lord. Becoming his enemy was not an option.
