She felt a sense of accomplishment in her covert operations, having successfully infiltrated her third brother's vicinity to keep tabs on him for her family. Now, being dispatched back by her third brother, she saw an opportunity to continue her surveillance on her own family.

"It's about sister-in-law and the Song family," Zhou Nini responded, aware that Song Zishan was brewing something unsettling even after her return to the capital.
Zhou Hengguang's smirk hinted at his anticipation. "Seems like Song Zishan still has some tricks up her sleeve."
