"To meet or not to meet?" asked the clansman.
"Let him come over."
Li Xia nodded. Although she didn't know what Gu An wanted, she understood that the Gu Family always wanted the National Preceptor's position, so they probably wouldn't come to interfere.
After a while, Gu An appeared, accompanied only by Ji Ru. As soon as they met, he said, "Miss Li Xia, am I late? Has the Beast Fighting Conference ended?"
"Couldn't I have arrived before the Beast Fighting Conference?" Li Xia smiled.
Gu An didn't play dumb and said, "Everyone says the Lee Family is most loyal to Zhong Nan. I'm really curious, what is your purpose?"
"Can't I be here to protect her?" Li Xia replied.
At this point, there was no need to hide anything.
Gu An smiled and said,
"If I'm not mistaken, you have no intention of betraying Zhong Nan. However, the Lee Family's top candidate for National Preceptor is not Bai Ling, which doesn't align with your interests."
