Lin Shi had just been struck by a terrible calamity, and now someone was prodding at her most vulnerable spot.
In her panic and confusion, hearing Tang Wen's comforting voice was like listening to heavenly music.
She lifted her tear-filled, almond-shaped eyes, shot Tang Wen a grateful look, and hastily said, "Those are my family members from my mother's side. They truly have nothing to do with this. Lady Shui Yun, please see the truth!"
A beauty in tears, looking utterly pitiable.
Shui Yun was completely unmoved. "Cut the damsel in distress act you use to fool men. I'll find out the truth as soon as I investigate."
Feeling Shui Yun's hostility, Lin Shi couldn't possibly relax.
Her heart was in her throat. She wanted to look to Tang Wen for help, but she held herself back, words caught in her throat.
Shui Yun pressed her. "First, if the people in the photo are your family, why was it hidden in a secret room?"
