"Father." Wang Zixi squinted:
"Do you know someone wants to make a move on me?"
"Who is it?"
"Of course, it's your 'brother'." Wang Qi sneered, seemingly smiling, but his smile was full of disdain and contempt:
"He always thinks he's smart, but in reality, he's just a fool!"
"If he could really get rid of you, that would be one thing. But if he can't, then what he did today becomes a hold you have over him. Acting hastily without absolute certainty is something only he would do."
Turning sideways, Wang Qi was half-teaching, half-warning:
"Remember!"
"The noble families have no personal grudges. Even if your 'brother' wants to kill you, you cannot kill him, at least not now."
"Use the leverage you have over him to make him work for you; that's how to maximize benefits."
Wang Zixi's face darkened.
She knew her father was right. She even set a trap with her own body to lure the mercenaries to act, just to gain leverage over Wang Jun.
But,
her heart was uncomfortable.
