Ning Yuchen linked the events together and gritted his teeth. "So Gu Wenheng is the real adulterer in this whole affair, and I've been taking the fall for him."
"What are you muttering about over here?" Liu Shijiang asked as he walked past, his face full of impatience. "Have you sorted out the materials I asked you to organize yesterday? I still have to deliver them to Lord Gong later."
Ning Yuchen replied, "Mr. Liu, I'll go sort them out right away."
"Stop keeping your eyes glued to others all day long and focus on handling your own work." After saying this, Liu Shijiang brushed past and left, entirely missing the twisted expression on Ning Yuchen's face.
「Later, outside the office.」
Gu Wenheng was just about to board his carriage to return to his manor when Ning Yuchen suddenly darted out and grabbed his arm. Hong Da and Ming Feng, who were standing nearby, immediately moved to shield Gu Wenheng behind them, but Ning Yuchen still refused to let go.
