Shang Yu paused his action of picking up food and slowly turned his eyes to Li Qiao.
Her tone was firm, more of an announcement than a discussion.
"Where are you going?" The man put down his chopsticks, his gaze deep and focused on her.
Li Qiao replied without hesitation, "There's something I need to discuss face-to-face with Bai Yan. It won't take long, two or three days at most."
"I'll go with you," Shang Yu's tone was equally uncompromising.
Li Qiao sighed with slight frustration, "I'm only going for two days, and I'll be taking Luoyu with me. You've already missed a lot of time on your previous trip to the British Imperial. I can't possibly have you accompany me every time I go out, like I'm a big baby."
Though the words were harsh, they were true.
Going to Scarlet City this time, she couldn't take Shang Yu along no matter what.
The man was silent for a while, eyes dark as he looked at Li Qiao. After a moment, he sighed, "Take Liuyun with you then."
