Seeing her so serious, he let out another enigmatic laugh. "Ziyin is a clever man. He knows he can't afford to lose his composure right now."
'Judging by his tone, he must be the one who understands Zhou Junlin best.'
Song Lianhe stared at him and suddenly said, "You helped Zhou Gaosuo become Crown Prince to intensify the conflict between him and Zhou Junlin, balancing their power."
Zhou Cangyan pursed his lips, a hint of an appreciative smile on his face. He lowered his gaze and said unhurriedly, "After doing so many wicked things, he thinks he can just retreat unscathed and live out his days in peace? I don't recall him asking for my permission."
'That's true,' she thought. 'Compared to confronting Emperor Cheng Xiao head-on, there's nothing more vexing than domestic turmoil and fraternal strife.'
Song Lianhe turned to look at him again. 'A villain is a villain, after all. So deviously wicked.'
Amused, Zhou Cangyan reached out and pinched her chin. "What's with that look?"
