Zhang Liao had been rather anxious lately.
Especially after Wang Jian was transferred up to Fengri City.
They had both once been Lord Shen's trusted followers. Now that Wang Jian hadn't been forgotten by Lord Shen, naturally Zhang Liao wouldn't be either. Perhaps he'd be next in line?
So when he received a sudden inquiry order, Zhang Liao's first reaction was: Lord Shen remembered me this quickly?
Then he was notified to bring "The Xiaoshan Tielu Manor False Accusation Accompaniment Case (Conclusion)" to the Thousand Households Station, and not only that, but even Chen Tianwen had to go along. Zhang Liao's newly rising delight instantly plummeted to rock bottom.
Chen Tianwen didn't look too good either. He'd warned Zhang Liao before, told him not to touch something as tough as Xiaoshan Tielu Manor, but Zhang Liao wouldn't listen. The result was predictable—the case was found to be groundless and simply closed. And now, Lord Shen had personally summoned them for questioning.
