Once Shen Xi returned, she went straight to find Meng Yu and asked directly, "Meng Yu, did you once rescue a girl in a red-light district in C Nation and release all the girls there?"
Meng Yu was taken aback and instinctively glanced in the direction of the living room, where Li Zhe was still busy in the kitchen. He breathed a sigh of relief because he did not want Li Zhe to know about his past where he had walked on the edge of a blade, fearing that it would worry him.
"How did you know?" Meng Yu asked.
"Gu Chen told me," Shen Xi replied and proceeded to recount the things Gu Chen had mentioned earlier.
In response to what he heard, Meng Yu admitted, "Yes, I took on that mission to stay in the alliance. My abilities were limited, so I chose to cooperate with the local government. After rescuing my mission target, I also helped the local police save the girls in the red-light district. I never expected that the red-light district was owned by the Gu family."
