Jinrong was astonished by Ye Xinyan's explanation and forgot many things. He asked, "How do you know all this? You grew up in the capital and haven't been out for long; how could you know about raising livestock?"
Upon hearing Jinrong's unreliable questioning, Ye Xinyan immediately clamped her mouth shut and stopped talking.
It wasn't that the question was hard to answer; she might not have seen livestock raising in Clear Water Village, but she did come and go through the village daily and could have easily made up an excuse.
The crucial point was that Jinrong had brought up her identity, a very sensitive, even potentially fatal issue. Even if everyone present knew what she was about, it was a tacit understanding not to be disclosed carelessly. His way of speaking... was too careless.
Ye Xinyan's eyes drifted up to the ceiling. With such a lack of tact, it was a good thing he wasn't involved in the competition for the throne; otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died.
