Not only was she suspicious now, but she had been suspicious all along! Wasn't the incident at Qingsong Monastery evidence enough?
Ha, that wife of the dog official was certainly audacious. Despite knowing the risk, she dared to venture forth… Perhaps her standing in the official's esteem wasn't as high as assumed.
The second-in-command declared, "Seek out Deputy Prefect Guan's wife and devise a plan to ensnare her alongside you!"
Fan Ruyin was caught off guard.
With a sneer, the second-in-command taunted, "Unwilling? If not, then swiftly concoct a scheme to lure the dog official's wife out of the city!"
"I am willing, truly!" Fan Ruyin desired to avoid further entanglement with Qiao Xuan. She asserted without hesitation, "Mrs. Guan harbors immense disdain for that foolish couple; she'll undoubtedly assist us."
The second-in-command remained silent. Whether she was willing or not might not be within her control.
"You'll meet with her tomorrow."
"Understood…"
