Looking at Gongsun Zan's indignant face, Sheni Pei found himself unable to say the words he had prepared.
"It's just that simple, I don't trust him." After Gongsun Zan had spelled it all out, it seemed as though he had let go of a heavy weight, his expression returning to its usual calm as he just watched Sheni Pei.

"I simply can't trust Yuan Benchu. Just that simple. His valor and prowess always come out when facing opponents stronger than him, whether it was against the former Dong Zhuo, the once me, or now Xuande. His valor is only because his opponents are stronger than him," Gongsun Zan said, scoffing.
Sheni Pei gave Gongsun Zan an unsatisfied look, such denigration of his lord, but considering previous events, Sheni Pei wasn't inclined to explain further.
