Ah Jiu was fixated on finding out whether his Imperial Brother and Royal Mother were truly as he imagined, but he hadn't considered what Wufu had said—that once the veil of shame was removed and the truth was laid bare before him, what would the consequences be?
What could he do to Emperor Yan, and more importantly, how would his Royal Mother face him?
When the truth is exposed, the most embarrassed person would not be himself, but the Royal Mother!
Ah Jiu's heart felt as if it had been hammered heavily, a burden weighing down on him. He looked at Wufu, his eyes filled with confusion and hesitation.
"Wufu, what should I do?" Ah Jiu couldn't help but ask.
Suspicion made everything seem amiss, yet the pursuit of truth carried the fear of hurting the most important people.
"Leave it to Heaven, let things take their course." Wufu intertwined her fingers tightly with his, saying, "Just remember that whatever happens, I will bear it with you. I'm by your side."
Ah Jiu nodded.
