She looked up with a startled expression, her eyes bright and pure like stars inked across the night sky, and said, "Li Shengxiao, I really think there's no need for you to feel aggrieved for my sake or to want to stand up for me, to hold the fort."

Rong Yan beat him to it, "I'm not saying this because I'm complaining about what you did; I'm not stupid, of course, I'm happy that you defend me."
"The reason I say you don't have to be aggrieved for me is that when your uncle and the others asked me those questions, it was just out of concern for you, certainly not intentionally to make things difficult for me."
With her status, if it wasn't for Li Shengxiao, Lin Teng probably wouldn't even spare her a glance.
There was really no need to particularly make things difficult for her.
"There's another reason." Her eyes and brows were picturesque, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who feels inferior?"
