Song Xizhi waved his hand: "It's nothing. We've already found this room and confirmed that it's where Zhao Qianlan was."
“We were certain there was an adulterer, and we were also certain that this person was connected to the Western Rong. That’s when we heard footsteps, so we decided to conceal our identities and leave first.”
Siqin nodded, then shifted her gaze to the man's face, her tone carrying a deeper meaning: "Then, Master, can we confirm the identity of the adulterer?"
