Qi glanced at his brother and sister-in-law, nodding firmly. "You're right, Fifth Brother. I'll handle this myself. I'll go find her now."
"Let's accompany you," Shao Yunduan suggested. "We can also bring Miss Yuan Mi and General Qin along."
The more people involved, the better. Tang Fanghua's audacity warranted no privacy.
Upon hearing Qi's invitation, Tang Fanghua felt a surge of elation. Lvmei chimed in, playing up Shao Yunduan's supposed guilt. "I knew it. General Shao has a kind heart. After all, you saved him. Surely he regrets his earlier treatment of you. His invitation is a sign of his regard for relationships. It's not a bad thing…"
Tang Fanghua beamed with satisfaction, feigning humility. "I seek only a clear conscience. General Shao is truly compassionate. He will come to understand me in time…"
"You're absolutely right!"
Master and servant conveniently overlooked the fact that Tang Fanghua wasn't Qi's savior at all.
