From that perspective, it was better not to overreact. Otherwise, they'd be waving a bright red flag in front of An Jing Shizhi and the others, and might even force them to make a move.

"Okay."

Though Su Gao didn't understand why Fu Qian's plans had changed after he'd been gone for just a few minutes, she nodded to show she understood.

For instance, perhaps more leaks had actually occurred than he'd seen, but his actions in his capacity as a Messenger might have influenced which one appeared before him.

If that was true, then the way the Warehouse existed was certainly
