On the way back, Bai Yan also told Xia Yue about her ex-boyfriend's background.
That man was named Mo Xiao, the number one pirate in the borderless ocean, with immense power.
Even on land, he wields considerable influence.
Xia Yue finally understood why Qin Yeting, a man of such great background, was somewhat wary of Mo Xiao when they first met.

No sooner had she finished speaking than there was a knock on her door!
"Young Miss, something terrible has happened! There's been an accident!" A bodyguard rushed over to report.
