At this moment, she stood beside the dining table. Although there were two guards watching her, they obviously didn't take her, a weak woman, seriously. Their gazes frequently drifted out the window, evidently wanting to know what enemy their team had encountered.
Seizing the moment they turned their heads, Xie Wanqing quickly hid a metal spoon inside her sleeve. The handle of the spoon was not sharp enough, but if she were to use all her strength, it was enough to seek death.
The spoon had just slipped into her sleeve when Jin Wuji hurriedly entered from outside, no longer composed and carefree as before. He stared at her intently, appearing both puzzled and shocked.
Xie Wanqing felt a chill down her spine under his gaze, and her arm was suddenly pulled tight, dragging her outside.
"Lu Ziyuan would disregard the frontier affairs for a woman, traveling thousands of miles to this place!" he said quickly as they walked. "Miss Xie, you're more important than we imagined."
