Listening to the siblings talk, Mo Yanchi revealed a benevolent smile.
He sat next to Bai Zhi'er.
"My little apprentice, remember, if you encounter anything in the future, you can always tell your master."
"No matter when, your master will always believe in you and won't allow others to slander you."
Bai Zhi'er blinked her big eyes.
She softly asked, "Master, but was it not considered cheating by Zhi'er?"
Mo Yanchi smiled at her words, "My little apprentice has already acknowledged her mistake, how could it be considered cheating? Integrity is especially important throughout one's life."
"As for why I didn't mention it in front of Lord Wang, it's because no matter what happens in the future, when the doors are closed, we are family, and naturally can speak freely."
"But with outsiders present, the first thing I must do is protect you."
Bai Zhi'er seemed to understand.
She put down the plate and took a handkerchief to wipe the crumbs from her lips.
