Chapter 961: Chapter 961: Borrowing a Knife to Kill Someone _1

Jiang Ning cast him doubtful glances.

Jiang Yi looked composed and clear-eyed, showing absolutely no signs of guilt.

Jiang Ning, however, was still skeptical.

She knew Huang Ren, an absolute villain through and through. Given his nature, he wouldn't let go of even the slightest chance of survival. If Jiang Yi had taken money to spare Huang Ren, he wouldn't have taken his own life.

Most likely, Jiang Yi took the money and killed the man.

Jiang Ning breathed a silent sigh deep within.

Though Huang Ren deserved to die, she harbored a faint hope that Jiang Yi hadn't committed such an act.

In her heart, Jiang Yi held the prestigious status of an Imperial Academy Scholar, reading and writing in the grandeur of the Imperial Academy each day, spending jovial moments with his wife at home. Such an elegant and relaxed life suited him.

But, Jiang Ning knew this was impossible.

In politics, one simply couldn't survive by being innocent and harmless.
