Chapter 656 You've all led me astray_1

Shen Zhou extended his hand, gently patted her shoulder, and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, I respect you because of Doudou. You're also not bad—I might barely accept you."

"I can barely accept that—and you don't need to wallow in self-pity, although what you think is indeed quite reasonable."

This infuriated Xue Lixue so much that she was ready to claw at Shen Zhou with full force.

Suddenly, Shen Zhou said, "This Tang Zixiang has a rather complicated background. I suspect he has something to do with the assassination attempts Doudou faced before."

That single sentence stopped Xue Lixue in her tracks.

She looked at Doudou, then at Shen Zhou, her expression turning serious.

"Who exactly is behind the scenes, trying to take Doudou's life? At first, we thought it was Xue Chang, but it has already been proven not to be him. I remember you saying it's very likely some powerful figure from the Northeast region who wants Doudou dead."
