Chapter 97: Joy_1

But, he couldn't tolerate others cursing Ye Qingci like that.

He knew Ye Qingci, she was clean, kind, pure, and even somewhat naive.

She took pride in her reputation and cherished her good name; being pointed at and cursed as a homewrecker or seductress pained her more than a physical beating.

Her self-respect and self-love were like that of a lotus on an icy mountain, unsullied, and that is why he respected and loved her.

If because of him she was sullied and insulted, even if Ye Qingci no longer blamed him, he couldn't forgive himself.

Only if he could produce evidence to prove it was Ye Qingci, not Luan Qingyuan who saved him back then, who had falsely claimed the debt of gratitude he owed Ye Qingci to secure his affection and become his fiancée, could he clear Ye Qingci's name.

Moreover, even without this reason, he wanted to uncover the truth.

He didn't want to be played for a fool, kept in the dark, misled.
