Jin Qianqian noticed it too. "I think I just saw my former sixth brother-in-law. Do you think he knows Sixth Sister gave birth?"

"But don't people in this era value blood ties above all else?" Jin Qianqian's expression instantly soured. "What a devious plan."
Ancient Wen Heng glanced at the patch of tall grass. "No matter how devious their plans are, it's all a waste of effort as long as we don't fall for it.
