Huangfu Hengjing forced a bitter smile, "Brother Long, if only you sought to unravel everything like I do. Honor, power, status, authority—all lose their meaning in the face of death."
Long Hengtian gazed at Huangfu Hengjing.
Huangfu Hengjing continued, "As the saying goes, one wishes for a peaceful death. I've harbored this doubt for centuries, and now that I'm nearing death, I feel an urge to know."
"Does this involve your suspicion regarding me?" Long Hengtian asked, having some inkling of what Huangfu Hengjing was seeking. Their relationship had always been rather limited.
Huangfu Hengjing nodded solemnly and said, "I want to ask you, back when my elder brother married my sister-in-law and he committed murders in Huangfu City that stirred a great sensation, later persuaded by my sister-in-law, I let go of the matter. But after that, did you ever meet with her again? I mean, did you have private meetings?"
"Huh?" Long Hengtian furrowed his brows suddenly.
