Chapter 263: You Are the Same Kind of Monster

Jiang Shouzhong's statement once again plunged the air into silence.

Ran Qingchen looked astonished, and then spat lightly, turning her head away, "Who has a child with you..."

A fiery breath gently spread between them, as if carrying an invisible warmth that not only warmed the air around them but also inadvertently brought them closer, suffusing a delicate and charming sentiment.

Jiang Shouzhong's words had ultimately crossed the line.

Perhaps it was an ill-timed joke, perhaps an inadvertent probe.

But for the two, who were already in a complex emotional phase, his words seemed to attempt piercing through the paper.

From initial mutual disregard, to friendship, to understanding, to the growth of obscure feelings.
