He thought it would be fine, but to his surprise, she ended up falling into a trap anyway.

"I actually had a master once, too."
Bai Ling's eyes filled with sorrow as she listened to Qing Lian. "That was my true master.

"Then what about your master? Did he pass away from old age, too?"
Qing Lian said, "Ah, I'm sorry. From your tone, I'm sure that's what happened. I spoke without thinking.
