Shen Roujia looked at the living person in front of her. “Xu Zening, how could you be the Alliance Leader of the Martial Alliance? What’s really going on?”
Before Shen Roujia could react, Xu Zening gently took her hand and led her to the large platform. The sky outside was a clear blue, perfectly complementing the peaceful mood.
Shen Roujia smiled softly, suddenly feeling as if a burden had been lifted. So, someone else had broken free from the plot’s control too.
And that person wasn’t just anyone—it was someone with whom she had the most complicated relationship.
Her ex-husband? Or something else? How should she address him?
In her daze, Shen Roujia hesitated over this question.
Shen Roujia didn’t really know what she wanted, but the moment she saw Xu Zening, she realized that what she desired most was freedom.
For a fleeting moment, she even envied Xu Zening’s carefree nature. 𝔫𝔬𝖛𝖕𝔲𝖇.𝖈𝖔𝖒
Tentatively, Shen Roujia asked Xu Zening, “Have you already found out who was responsible for harming your mother?”
Xu Zening didn’t hesitate to reply, “Yes.”
Shen Roujia’s eyes widened. “Did you know from the very beginning? Were you just playing me for a fool?”
Xu Zening chuckled softly. “Didn’t you ever consider another possibility?”
Frowning, Shen Roujia couldn’t help but ask, “What do you mean?”
Xu Zening slowly said, “I never intended to let you leave.”
