Xiao Jinxing nodded, genuinely acknowledging An Ning's abilities.
He had recognized them five years ago.
Otherwise, with his initial aversion to An Ning, no matter how well An Ning could protect herself, she would have died at his hands.
And he had to admit, it seemed as though this was the best way for them to coexist.
No talk of emotions, only business!
Once the matter was settled, they would part ways.
"Alright, go ahead and busy yourself." An Ning didn't care about Xiao Jinxing's mood.
After saying what she needed to, she didn't want to delay him further.
After all, as a ruler of the kingdom, besides dealing with the Bai Family, Xiao Jinxing had many other state affairs to handle.
She also needed to carefully think through the details to more successfully lure Bai Mowan into the trap.
Xiao Jinxing nodded.
He turned to leave.
He glanced down again at the ink on the inkstone.
An Ning didn't notice at that moment; she was still thinking about her own matters.
