Mu Wanjun and Chen Ping'an spoke for a long time. She learned a great deal about his situation and asked if there was anything he needed help with.
Chen Ping'an expressed his gratitude but said that for now, there was nothing that required troubling the Lord Chief of the Patrol Office. He thanked her for her concern.
Mu Wanjun's esteem for Chen Ping'an grew, and as he was also intent on leveraging her influence, the two had a very pleasant conversation.
"Well, if there is nothing else, let's leave it at that for today. I will handle things with Fu Yuanming, so you don't need to worry."
Recalling the scene of Fu Yuanming's earlier outburst, the smile vanished from Mu Wanjun's face as she spoke coolly.
"Thank you, my lady."
Chen Ping'an said with solemnity.
"Alright, you may go. Seize this opportunity to establish your authority. I expect you to bring the entire South City Prison firmly under your control."
Mu Wanjun instructed.
"Yes, it shall be done."
