"The situation in this town is very complicated, far more complex than it appears to be."
Seeing that Mu Wanting didn't speak, Shen Xinglan pulled Mu Wanting up to the roof.
Before, when she was in the market, all she could see was right in front of her, but once she was on the roof, she could see much more.
