"Do you dare let me speak to the Commandery Princess?" Lü Qi gazed up and down at Chen Ji, seemingly surprised that Chen Ji actually dared to let him talk to Bai Li.
Chen Ji slowly withdrew the Whale Blade: "She is free, whoever she wishes to speak to is her choice, I will not stop her."
Lü Qi's expression flickered unpredictably: "Do you know what I want to say to the Commandery Princess? How do you think she'd react when she finds out about your dirty deeds?"
Chen Ji didn't immediately answer.
He turned his head and glanced back, only to see Bai Li standing in front of the tomb, looking over, her cheeks softened by the sunlight.
Chen Ji withdrew his gaze, and after a long silence, replied: "I cannot silence the murmurs of the world; since it is done, I must be prepared for others to know."
