A sense of unease rose in Shen Huaixu's heart. Where did these people come from?
What use is it?
He was filled with questions, but ultimately didn't ask them.
Because he knew that the situation was now completely out of his control, and everything was in Shen Jintang's hands.
She's been setting up this scheme for so long, and now it's finally time to reap the rewards.

A slight warmth filled his heart as he looked at Shen Jintang's retreating figure ahead, his eyes filled with a somewhat obscure and unfathomable expression.
