Shen Yinning gently shook her head.
Lu Ying continued to gaze at her. "Do you know that was embezzled money?"
Shen Yinning raised her eyes and enunciated each word clearly. "I have never heard him mention it."
The room fell into a heavy silence.
No one knew how much time had passed before Xue Ling suddenly barged in. "Didn't you say the twenty million taels of patterned silver might be with Shen Yinning? I personally searched every corner of Zhaoyue Tower, and I found not a single clue—"
His words abruptly stopped when he saw that Shen Yinning was also present.
He sneered. "Oh, I was wondering why I couldn't find you at Zhaoyue Tower despite all the commotion. Turns out, you had already slipped away. What's this—seeing that Luo Xibai has fallen from power, you now want to cling to the Crown Prince? Miss Shen, if you ask me, you're too fickle-minded."
Lu Ying ordered coldly, "Get out."
"Fine, I'll go."
