Father and son both had the same suspicion in their hearts: Could it be that the person who really knew the truth was Xia Lan?
And Xia Lan had inadvertently told Cao Guihua about the situation?
Soon after, Ou ZhenTing pondered for a moment and said, "Junjun, you just mentioned you wanted to go to Ling County, is it to investigate the matter?"
"Yes," Ou Jun replied with a nod upon hearing this.
He had no intention of keeping his father in the dark.
Seeing this, Ou ZhenTing pondered a bit more, then said to his son, "Junjun, all this while, you've had one foot in the military, and the other in searching for Jiao Jiao."
"You haven't paid much attention to the political situation."
Fearing his son might not grasp his meaning, Ou ZhenTing directly explained, "Recently, someone from above wants us to take sides, but we have maintained neutrality."
"In such circumstances, to prevent us from switching to the opposition, they might, possibly, take action against us…"
