As he entered the Prime Minister Mansion, it was clear that someone like Xiong Er, usually a playboy, wouldn't normally be invited into such an illustrious residence; yet today, it felt like stepping into a den of thieves.
Xiong Er approached Qin Liuxi with hesitation and unease, stuttering as he asked, "Junior Temple Master, have I caused you trouble?"
He wholeheartedly thought that Madam Lin was a good person and didn't deserve to die like this, and therefore, he voluntarily tried to tie a good fate with Qin Liuxi for her sake. Good intentions, yet now the situation has become such that they all felt like hostages held by the Lin Family. Only then did he realize something was amiss, realizing that he might have forced Qin Liuxi to help by leveraging his closeness, fearing that his good intentions might have backfired.
What if Madam Lin was truly fated to die and perished during the treatment? Whose fault would it be?
