That's why he saw things clearly even before the crown prince.
He closed his eyes briefly. "The New Year's money was also prepared by the Crown Prince. He's shy, so he asked me to pass it on to you."
Lin Qingwan's broken sobs escaped her throat, her shoulders heaving violently with each sob. She lay beside Tong Di's bed, crying like a child.
