Li Hongyuan sternly said, "If the Jiang family is innocent, they have nothing to fear from even the longest of shadows."
"Your Highness, save those words to fool others, don't say them in front of me," said Jiang Ning coldly. "There are some things that everyone knows and understands clearly. Why do you have to force it out, risking hurting our feelings?"
Li Hongyuan's fingertips lightly tapped on the table as he asked softly, "Do you care about me?"
"Of course I do."
"What kind of feelings?" Li Hongyuan pressed on, "Is it the admiration you have for Wenren Zong, or the childhood friendship you had with He Tang?"
Jiang Ning replied with a smile, "We are husband and wife."
"A husband and wife who scheme against each other?"
