Shi Yan continued. "I understand that I have no evidence of what I'm telling you, so you can't believe me," he said. "But I have a request if you don't mind fulfilling it."
"What is it?" Yuan Shun question sharply. He hoped it wasn't one of Shi Yan's schemes to put him off his guard by fabricating lies.
Shi Yan sighed. "I have two daughters. I don't think you've met them, but they mean everything to me as well as my wife," he admitted.
Yuan Shun listened.
Shi Yan pulled out a photo of his daughters. One of them smiled, while the other looked as reserved as her father. Yuan Shun widened his eyes. "How old are they?"
"My eldest is 19, and my second is 18. You see, Mr. Yuan, I wouldn't do anything reckless to compromise the future of my daughters."
Yuan Shun rubbed the space between his brows.
