Shen Tang came back to her senses, gently shook her head, "Sister is fine, I came here to find someone, but now... I don’t really know if I should continue searching."
Little Snake didn’t understand her complex thoughts, only saw that she seemed very sad, tilted its head and said, "If sister wants to find him, then find him, I’ll accompany you."
Shen Tang was comforted by its words, pressed her lips, and nodded, "Hmm, no matter what, I have to find him! At least... to ask face to face."
However, with her current identity, wanting to reach the high-ups of Sky City is almost impossible, she probably can’t even enter the Royal City.
The Royal City of Sky City is different from other places, even the spies from Star Veil Secret Place can’t infiltrate, you can imagine how strict the security is, she simply has no way to get the information she wants, she might even bring greater trouble upon herself.
But...
Isn’t there a ready-made breakthrough right in front of her?
And that is Baron.
If Baron really was ordered to protect her, then every time she’s in danger, he should appear, this is just the right opportunity to verify.
So in the next few days, Shen Tang started using all kinds of "seek death" tricks.
Whether it was encountering thugs in an alley, accidentally provoking a gang, or hunting outside the city into danger, Baron would always "just happen" to appear with his team.
Baron was almost in tears.
He’s not stupid, he could see that this lady was testing him.
It’s also his fault for being careless and let it slip.
However, it also shows that this female is indeed smart, realizing something was wrong so quickly left him defenseless.
But he had no choice, the task given by that lord was to ensure her safety.
Saving her wasn’t right, not saving her wasn’t right, in the end, he really had no solution, simply decided to "admit frankly".
"Miss, please stop torturing me! If you have any questions, just ask directly, my position can’t take this kind of trouble..." At the last moment, Baron had all his men leave, finding a remote, unpopulated corner.
Shen Tang grinned slightly, "Not avoiding me this time?"
Baron helplessly said, "I’ve indeed been protecting in the shadows, since you’ve discovered it, there’s no point in hiding it."
Shen Tang spoke calmly, "Don’t be nervous, I’m grateful for your protection these days, I only want to ask one thing."
"... Please, go ahead."
"Who sent you to protect me?" Shen Tang asked teasingly, "We are neither relatives nor acquaintances, it wouldn’t be that you fell for me at first sight and came to protect me voluntarily, would it?"
Baron lightly coughed a couple of times, a thin layer of red appeared on his handsome face, not sure if it was from choking or something else.
He quickly shook his head, "I absolutely dare not have such thoughts, I... am indeed acting on orders."
Then he said with difficulty, "But Miss, I really can’t disclose this, please don’t make it difficult for me."
"..."
Baron continued, "This should be my last appearance, in the future, if you’re in danger, I’m afraid I won’t appear, so you needn’t test anymore."
He looked at her with meaningful eyes, "If you trust me, then please leave here as soon as possible, this is also for your safety."
Shen Tang frowned deeply hearing what he said.
She could also see that no matter how she asked, she couldn’t get anything out.
