Chapter 445: Jade Pendant 445 Reappears
Before accepting Sikong Mo, Ye Jiu had cautioned him, "Alright, you can go in, but you must not touch my belongings. If you promise you can abide by this, I will let you in. If not, then I will..." ignore you.
Although he didn’t say it explicitly, that was exactly what Ye Jiu’s eyes conveyed.
Therefore, Sikong Mo nodded, "Okay."
Knowing that Ye Jiu was highly cautious and wouldn’t let her guard down before she trusted someone, Sikong Mo wouldn’t do anything to push her away either.
Moreover, he had never intended to take any advantage from her.
Even though he had suggested she help him prepare food supplies, it was with a plan aiming for mutual benefit.
