Shen Yinning idly adjusted the golden hairpin. "Cousin, what do you mean by this? Not to mention how a mere woman like me could hide someone, but Second Cousin has already perished in the sea of flames—how could the dead return to life? If your purpose in coming here tonight is to interrogate me on this matter, then isn't it far too absurd and sinister? Forgive me, but I cannot oblige."
With that, she turned to leave.
But Shen Xinghan stayed close behind her, stepping into the Gao Mansion with her. "If you wish to keep something hidden, the only way is not to do it at all. Shen Yinning, tonight you've shown far too many flaws. You intend to kill us all, but because of my suspicious nature, you were forced to use Second Brother's jade pendant to bait me. Yet, in the end, you miscalculated—what you didn't foresee was that it would rain tonight."
Shen Yinning walked through the corridor. "I don't understand what Cousin is talking about."
