Chapter Summaries

Yunxi received Su Jing and Su Miao, who claimed they had come to reunite her with Feng Jiayun, but she exposed Su Miao’s earlier conduct and deduced they wanted her to remove an Evil Seed from someone important to them. She left the brothers facing her accusation, with Su Jing’s true request still to be confirmed.
