"So you really do know everything." Wan Qiqi gave a self-deprecating laugh, her eyes flashing. "Brother Xie, I know you have your own ambitions for becoming an official, but are you truly worthy of your position?"
Xie Xing didn't look into Wan Qiqi's eyes.
He turned around and said, "Qiqi, some things are not as simple as you think. You can't rush anything."
"Weren't you ever worried? Do you dare say that Lord Fang's death really had nothing to do with you?" Wan Qiqi questioned.
