Bab 706: Her or Tong Yan

Furthermore, Elder Shen had only just decided to accept Tong Yan, reneging on his words now would appear to be very cruel, wouldn't it?

Elder Shen started to hesitate. Xinghe was quiet; she waited patiently for his answer. She didn't force him because the decision laid with him. No matter his decision, she would honor it.

However, if he chose to side with Tong Yan then she would have to find another way to search for her mother. She wouldn't even tell the Shen family the truth because it was no longer necessary. The Lin family had caused such suffering to her mother, she wouldn't forgive them no matter what.
