Jian Lianxi felt slightly uncomfortable inside, happy on one hand that Cheng Qi's display of jealousy meant she cared about him.
On the other hand, he wondered if her anger stemmed from not trusting him enough.
Cheng Qi, not one to keep her thoughts to herself, answered directly, "What bothers me is that you never told me about this, leaving me to face such a situation so suddenly."
If it had been a younger, more innocent girl, she would have already been scared to tears by Alice's attitude.
"An insignificant person— I rejected Mo Sefu right there and didn't take it to heart, which is why I didn't mention it, it wasn't intentional."
Jian Lianxi defended himself, feeling even more resentful towards Mo Sefu.
Knowing full well how much the Jian Family hated him, he still dared to send his daughter to Country C.
When Cheng Qi heard his last words, the anger in her heart had mostly dissipated.
But inexplicably, she felt that she couldn't forgive him so easily.
