Fang Hong ignored her sarcasm. "I would like to ask you to help request Lord Earl to search the coast near Antuo. Miss Affia is still on the 'Dawood' ship, and I guess he will surely agree."
Lavali looked at him for a long time.
Finally, she asked solemnly, "...so Miss Gita is on that ship too, right?"
Fang Hong nodded, feeling amused. Since he made this request, he was confident the other party would agree.
The Earl's daughter gritted her teeth and looked at him.
After a while, she replied word by word, "I will consider it."
If looks could kill, Fang Hong felt he had already died more than ten times. But seeing his objective accomplished, he didn't mind much, as with Governor Bain's involvement, finding the 'Dawood' ship would be much easier—he believed that Lord Earl would go all out.
...
Having settled things with Lavali, when confronting Nulman again, Fang Hong didn't mention this matter.
