Ye Zao, sensing something off in his tone, remained silent.
She felt somewhat uneasy.
After a little while, Fourth Master released her, "Alright, don't overthink it. I can't bear to see you wronged. Be a good girl."
Having said that, Fourth Master remembered something from a few days ago and quickly added, "Do take something with you."
He was extremely afraid that Ye Zao would call out 'father' again, which would be just too...
Ye Zao hummed in acknowledgment, and the matter was seemingly put to rest.
Within a few days, Fourth Master received letters sent by the guards from the mansion, including one from Sister Jiang.
After reading the letters from the guards and from Su Wanfu, who was left at Fujin's place, Fourth Master scoffed.
Seeing Sister Jiang's letter, which read quite similarly, he scoffed even louder.
Was Fujin really so relentless? Not favored herself, she tried to push her own cousin to bear children?
