Summary: He trusts her.



When Xiao Heng heard that Jiang Li confessed to framing Shen Yurong, he knew immediately what had happened. Not the details, but enough: they offered her something she needed more than her own life.

There were few things on that list.

Once he was sure the magistrate was safe at his manor, Xiao Heng deliberately put his worries aside. He’d never played this game with a partner before, but he trusted Jiang Li to choose her placements wisely. Setbacks were potential opportunities, they both knew.

Whatever this cost her, Xiao Heng vowed, he would make their enemies pay in blood.
