Can't escape punishment

The meeting with the old man went as Bei Sangyun expected. Perhaps the old man felt guilty for not pursuing the matter with the Simon family after Lin Xiaoni's engagement was settled; he did not mention or question Bei Sangyun about her leaving the mansion and disappearing without notice.

However, there was a matter that Old Master Lin couldn't let go. He keenly asked her if she knew anything about the aphrodisiac drugs and their source. But Bei Sangyun denied it calmly.

Old Master Lin observed her expression carefully. Finding no trace of apprehension or guilt on her face, he sighed.
