Liang Wan thought for a moment, then decided to explain. "Saving the Grandmaster wasn't about showing off, seeking credit, or asking for anything in return. It's that if you later found out I was there but did nothing, I wouldn't just be unable to account for my actions—I fear my life would have been in danger.
Previously, because of Wang Su, I intentionally spread a rumor that did damage your reputation. But rest assured, sir. I will take what you said that day to heart and do my best to keep my distance from you in public from now on.
As for Young Master Zhou's misunderstanding, sir?"
Liang Wan looked up at him. 'It wasn't her place to be the one explaining things to Zhou Yun.'
"You don't have to worry about that," he said, giving her a cool glance before preparing to leave.
'Just as I thought.'
"Alright," Liang Wan said, bowing to him.
