Capítulo 1282: I Want to Make You Stay (160)

"Wasn't there anyone to look after the tomb?"

"No."

"Did you tell anyone about this? Your mother?"

"My mother is the only one who knows about this. However, I found out a few days later that He Yi had trespassed on my family's ancestral burial ground. If he hadn't mentioned that he was friends with you and Jin Qingyan, I wouldn't have guessed that you guys were associated with him. Hence, I decided to use him to my advantage. However, I was afraid that you guys will hold it against me if my plan were to backfire. Should that happen, I would be punished by the law. Hence, I decided to tell him that the owner of the tomb was a member of the Pei family."

Everything seemed to be starting to make sense.

An Xiaoning did not expect him to be so honest with her. If what he had said was true, he would have proven himself to be sincere enough. However, she was afraid that he was lying.
