Capítulo 200: Backing

Wu Zhen's voice softened as he spoke, "Miss, you were once very kind-hearted, but showing too much softness now could make you vulnerable to others."

Gu Dai responded softly, "Hmm."

Relieved that his words had reached her, Wu Zhen finally exhaled.

Although he had been standing outside the door earlier, he had still been able to hear the conversation inside the room, leaving him puzzled about one particular issue.

After pondering for a moment and coming up with no answers, Wu Zhen felt compelled to ask Gu Dai, "Miss, Gu Zhi used to be afraid of you. Why did she suddenly gather the courage to confront you?"

Gu Dai lowered her eyes briefly before lifting them again, "I suspect someone is backing Gu Zhi."

Wu Zhen immediately tensed up and blurted out, "Could the person behind Gu Zhi harm you? No, I must arrange for more bodyguards to protect you; we can't risk you getting hurt!"
