Please Carry Me

"Did something happen?" Meixiu asked her.

"That's what I want to ask you. What happened? Did you offend the Chairman? Why would someone like him be searching for you?" Meifeng asked her.

"Well…" Meixiu proceeded to explain to her mother what had occurred at the Cultivators' Association today.

Meifeng remained silent for a good moment after hearing Meixiu's story, and all she said at the end was—

"Just be careful and refrain from going outside for a while. Chairman Zhao is a powerful man who is at the top of the Cultivators' Association. He may not be a powerful cultivator, but he has plenty of influence and more than enough people to suppress you."

"I understand. Thank you for the warning."

"Don't you get it, Meixiu? If you're in danger, the Young Master will also be in danger. Whatever you do, just make sure you protect him."

"You don't need to tell me that," Meixiu said.

Meifeng hung up the phone shortly after.
