Smash What They're Holding

"There's no need." Before she could finish, Gong Zeli interrupted her. The mockery in his eyes deepened. "I've said it before, it's nothing. I'd help out if it was someone else too.

"So, you don't have to bother about it."

She almost said it out loud.

Gong Zeli knew that she was trying to avoid suspicion.

They'd had so many scandals in the past.

Even if she didn't care about what others said, she cared about Mo Yesi's feelings.

Hence, she had to keep a distance from him.

He could understand her actions.

But seeing how she was avoiding him, his heart ached again.

The sharp pain spread from his heart to his limbs and bones. The color on his face faded at a visible rate, and his handsome face was paler than before.

Even his lips paled.
