"I want to ask for your help!" Blood Trace said.
Xiang Yixiu slowly lifted the teacup in his hand: "Sorry, I am a professor. My contribution to the country is to teach, explain, and clarify. Helping Qianlong complete special tasks is neither my specialty nor my duty."
"Is it that you don't want to help, or that... you can't help?" Blood Trace's eyes squinted into a slit; his voice was very light but very heavy.
"Interpret it as you wish!" Xiang Yixiu smiled faintly: "If I haven't broken any laws, may I leave to attend that idle meeting?"
The atmosphere froze...
Lin Xiaosu slowly lifted his gaze: "Professor Xiang, is it inconvenient for you to help because of your sect?"
Before Blood Trace entered, he had a relaxed conversation with Xiang Yixiu.
Once Blood Trace arrived, the atmosphere became somewhat unusual.
Lin Xiaosu had not spoken at all during this time.
Only now did he speak.
Xiang Yixiu looked towards him, with obvious displeasure in his eyes...
