"promise."
Five years ago, Qiao Yu might still be afraid that there were spies from Yan Fu or Yan Qu around her, but now, as long as she didn't want any news about her to reach the ears of those two men.
The servants retreated ten meters away to keep watch, and the two men remained in a stalemate without saying a word. Qiao Yu was not in a hurry, after all, it was not him who had something to say.
