Mu Qingyin looked at Gu Shi's expression; his heart sank slightly as he felt that Gu Shi was like entrusting an orphan to other's care.
He felt uneasy.
"Master Gu, I will use my life to protect Yiyi, but... What Yiyi needs more is for us to protect her together, not by me alone."
Others might think that Gu Yiyi was a rebellious and disobedient daughter, but in fact, Gu Shi was the most important person in her life. She would rather give up everything than lose him.
Gu Shi said with a bitter smile, "I'm already glad as you are willing to promise me. I have always felt that some changes will happen in this mainland. I am the head of Tian Shen Manor, and I've many responsibilities. But Yiyi is different, so I hope that no matter what happens, she will be able to live well."
Mu Qingyin raised his head and stared at Gu Shi's face for half a second before finally nodding slightly.
"Don't worry. I will protect her."
