Shao Xingbang listened silently, his heart not as calm as he appeared.
It should be said, what Ji Man told him had some discrepancies compared to what Lin Xia had revealed.
But it's normal for stories to differ depending on the perspective of the person telling them.
Shao Xingbang needed to think it over carefully. He stood up and waved his hand, "Alright! I'm going back to my room! You all get some rest!"
"Okay! Uncle, you should also get some rest early!"
Lu Zheng and Lin Xia saw him off at the door, neither of them able to guess what Shao Xingbang would ultimately decide to do.
Lin Xia felt, up to now, that while Ji Man's experience deserved sympathy, her actions afterwards had been very improper.
Furthermore, she had not yet brought up how Ji Man had incited Lu Qing and her cousin Song Zhiya against each other.
