"Go back, we'll meet again if fate allows."
Chu Heng didn't linger, quickly walked away.
Xie Zhao went to the corner, squatted down, opened his mouth, and stuffed the pineapple cake into it. He chewed expressionlessly, yet his gaze slightly wavered. Upon closer inspection, one could see the shimmer in his eyes.

"Sir, Xie Zhao met Chu Heng on the street today." Although Hu Hua had reached an understanding with Xiang City to deal with Chu Heng, he didn't give up on finding other ways to trouble Chu Heng.
In the past, he wouldn't have dared to entertain such thoughts against Chu Heng.
But now, everyone in the court knew that Emperor Xuanming had personally stated that Chu Heng was not to be trusted, causing Chu Heng's status to plummet. If Hu Hua didn't seize this opportunity to trouble him, there might never be another chance.
He's been having people watch Chu Heng, trying to catch him in a vulnerable moment.
