"You don't like Shen Shuci?"
"She almost killed me before! And then Jiang Jinsang came over, and I had to apologize to her — I never settled that score with her properly."
"I can help you vent your anger."
"You?" Having benefited from framing someone before, You Shenming knew she had some tricks up her sleeve, but he wasn't stupid. "Why are you helping me? What do you want?"
Xiang Xiaoyuan wasn't shy. They were colluding, after all, neither of them good people, so no need to pretend.
She opened her mouth and spoke plainly, "I want to enter high society."
You Shenming laughed, "Deal, as long as this works."
"But I don't have resources or connections, by myself I probably can't..."
"Just tell me what you need."
...
Then a rumor surfaced again in Beijing:
Old Shen originally wanted to leave all the inheritance to Tang Wan, which displeased Shen Shuci. She deliberately set up a scheme to frame and slander, aiming to get rid of Tang Wan.
