Xie Ming'an's eyes darkened. After a moment, he said, "Have your wolves leave the city first. I'll have my men take the injured to a clinic."
Shen Ningning didn't trust him.
When she was locked in the Sunlight Tower, Ye Shangyi had pleaded with Xie Ming'an to report to Consort Rong.
But Xie Ming'an hadn't gone.
At a moment when a life was on the line, she couldn't bring herself to entrust Grandpa Xu to Xie Ming'an alone.
The little one clenched her fists. Her voice was soft, yet incredibly resolute. "And what if I say no?"
Xie Ming'an narrowed his eyes. "Then don't blame me for being merciless and resorting to force."
The Black Wolf King bared its fangs, its eyes gleaming menacingly. The wolf pack's fur bristled as they took a battle stance.
Suddenly!
Xu Jingxi charged forward and yanked Xie Ming'an right off his horse.
"What kind of official are you?! With a life on the line, you protect scoundrels. You're a corrupt official!"
