Hu Zhongtian's words were heartless, but Luo Qingtong seemed to catch something from them.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at Hu Zhongtian, and suddenly said, "Is it because of the object the Bai Family wants?"
With Yu Sihuang beside her, Luo Qingtong wasn't afraid of the Second Elder's people eavesdropping on their conversation.
Upon hearing Luo Qingtong's words, Hu Zhongtian suddenly froze, then erupted into a heart-wrenching cough.
He stared at Luo Qingtong, his expression shocked to the extreme.
"How... how do you know?"
His gaze shifted between Luo Qingtong and Chu Lingfeng, unsure if Luo Qingtong's closeness to Chu Lingfeng held any ulterior motives.
The latter's nature was simple and foolish, making it not impossible to be manipulated.
Seeing his gaze, Luo Qingtong smiled lightly.
She tapped the folded fan in her hand, then leisurely said, "Naturally, it's because..."
The corners of her lips lifted slightly, "I killed Bai Jintang and learned it from him."
