"They report potential threats. A private investigator falls within that category." He wanted Weiwei to understand that he did everything out of concern for her safety, not for any selfish reasons.
Weiwei understood the distinction, but it still unsettled her.
"I need to know where protection ends and surveillance begins."
"That is fair."
Mo Shian did not dismiss her discomfort.
"I will have the security team provide you with their reporting rules. You can object to anything unreasonable."
"And if I say I don't want a harmless meeting reported?"
"Then it will not be reported."
"What if they believe it is dangerous?"
"They will tell you first unless there is an immediate threat."
Weiwei nodded slowly.
That gave her more control without removing the protection entirely.
Mo Shian returned his attention to the folders.
"The security issue is separate from why you did not tell me."
"I know."
"Do you believe I would take over the investigation?"
"Partly."
