Shen Ruoxi recalled that when she mentioned Tai as the Young Master of the Demon Sect, Xing Yuan, Old Mrs. Xu showed obvious astonishment, seemingly unaware of this.
This raises a question: how does Manager Yan, under her employment, know about the Demon Sect's internal affairs?
She had asked Manager Yan, and he said he wasn't part of the Demon Sect, merely working for them. Was he previously Old Mrs. Xu's lover?
Even something Old Mrs. Xu was unaware of, he knew. Could he be lying?
This thought startled Shen Ruoxi. Could there be an even more complex conspiracy hidden within? No, she must investigate this at the Capital Governor Mansion herself.
As Shen Ruoxi got up intending to wash up and dress, her three maids were immediately flustered.
"Miss, you cannot go out; you need to recuperate well now," the maids advised one after another.
But Shen Ruoxi insisted, "I'm fine now. There's an important matter I must handle personally."
