Suo Lun's heart skipped a beat. What did Zhi Li mean by that?
What did it mean by saying that if he delayed further, it would be too late?
Zhi Li offered no explanation and simply ended the meeting, rising to leave.
As he reached the door, Zhi Li turned back and said, "And don't try to search for your mother and daughter by yourself; it's impossible to find them."
Suo Lun stood rooted to the spot, his mind in turmoil, as he watched Prince Zili walk away.
It took him a good while to regain his composure and immediately went to find his sister, Suo Ningbing.
…
Inside the attic of the Tianshui City Lord's mansion.
Only Suo Lun and Suo Ningbing were present.
As usual, Suo Ningbing sat on Suo Lun's lap, gently nestling in his arms.
Their moments of intimacy were always brief and precious, and as the Tianshui City Lord's mansion grew more crowded, their opportunities to be together became rarer.
