Betrayal is her reverse dragon scale

Jiang Yue sighed. She understood perfectly his sentiments, but that does not mean she's willing to risk everything, "I cannot afford to become too entangled in this. I have people who rely on me, people I need to protect. I... I hope you can understand." Her words hung in the air, heavy with the weight of her conflicting emotions.

Gu Tai remained silent. After a long pause, he finally nodded. "I understand. Your help will be more than enough. I will meticulously plan every step and make sure they do not escape justice."

The weight on Jiang Yue's shoulders seemed to lighten as she heard Gu Tai's response. "As for Xiao An, I know a doctor. Although I cannot guarantee her ability to help him, any improvement would be a blessing. He is still too young to endure such suffering."

Exhaling, Gu Tai expressed his gratitude. "Thank you."

Jiang Yue shook her head, dismissing his gratitude. "It's nothing, as long as you keep your end of the deal."
