541 The Looming Dark Days

"Come up with a punishment I'll approve if you don't want your precious daughter imprisoned. Also, don't even think about approaching Liliana to feign begging for her forgiveness."

Thomas was greatly dismayed by the turn of events. Old Master Ding's direct involvement in this matter forced him to be stuck between defending his daughter and protecting the interests of the Xin family as a whole.
