A chill swept over Ming Mei's heart: "Isn't he afraid that if he kills me, Kang Chen will kill him?"
The steward sneered, "Because, he believes that Mr. Chen would not abandon his power and military authority for a woman. Having sat on the throne for decades, he has long forgotten that love, family bonds, and friendships exist."
For the first time, Ming Mei felt the terror of this world. Power was simply a horrifying monster.
In her heart, she suddenly wasn't sure what Kang Chen would choose if she died. Would he seek revenge for her, or would he choose to continue his path to glory?
Ming Mei dared not think too much. She feared that if she did, she would lose hope in the world and in life itself.
Ming Mei looked up at the steward, "So... now it's time to tell me, who do you really work for? What is your purpose in the Kang family?"
