Love Comes Like The Southern Breeze (168)

Qin Xuming stared at her with his dark eyes and remained silent.

He could not tell her the truth. He did not want to talk about it. It was the greatest shame of his life that left him with immense misery.

There was indeed a grudge between him and the Qiao family that could not be disclosed to outsiders.

"You've been by my side all these years," Qiao Ruoxi said again after realizing that he wasn't answering. "You were the one who protected me during the most difficult time of my life. If it weren't for you, I don't know if I would've survived. Qin Xuming, I've always been very grateful to you…"

"Shut up!"

He did not want to hear anything touching.

He cut her off.

His expression became a little strange. There was a hint of pain between his eyebrows. He seemed to have thought of something and his lips curved into a sinister smile.
