Sheng Lin: "Wh-what..."
"This indicates that Ruan Qi's status in the Xi Family has reached a point where she can command Gong Qi at will!" Old Master Sheng glared at her with red eyes, "In the whole Imperial Capital, how many people can order Gong Qi around? Ruan Qi having such sway over him suggests that her becoming the Lady of the head of the Xi Family is already certain!"
"Now Old Xi is still alive, and Ruan Qi considers his face, so she won't make things difficult for the Sheng Family. But what about after that? When Ruan Qi really marries in and gains control of the Xi Family's power, do you think she won't do something to the Sheng Family? To you and Qingqing!"
Old Master Sheng's words were like a heavy blow, hitting Sheng Lin hard on the head.
Sheng Lin's mind buzzed and went blank.
She always focused on petty gains and could not see as far as Old Master Sheng. Now, with a slight nudge, she panicked like a headless fly.
