In the face of the situation, Jiang Nan ultimately did not mention the matter of Zhang Gaoqiu and the Little Princess.
Meanwhile, Zhang Gaoqiu was also caught in a dilemma. He stood alone in the pavilion, silently gazing at the distant sea of clouds.
"If I propose to annul the marriage with Shen Ling now, once the matter of Shen Ling's pregnancy is exposed, the Shen Family won't spare me. The Shen Family is already in a dire situation, a trapped beast on the verge of desperation. If I dare to stand out now, I'll surely be marked as a fool and get killed. The Shen Family is currently in a precarious position in Jinling City, with undercurrents surging, and they need to assert dominance." Zhang Gaoqiu grappled in his heart:
"The Shen Family has reached such a point, they surely wouldn't care about old familial ties, nor would they consider the support I have from Kyoto's Zhang Family. If I run into the Shen Family's gunpoint, I'm afraid I'll die without a proper burial."
