When Meng Qingshi spoke, her gaze was fixed intently on Mr. Yan. Although she was smiling, there was a hint of reproach in her eyes.
Yan Xi noticed the arrogance in Meng Qingshi's eyes, and her expression immediately darkened a little.
She couldn't understand where Meng Qingshi got the nerve to act this way toward her father, who had raised her and her sister all by himself.
Compared to Mr. Yan, Meng Qingshi hadn't contributed anything to her.
She should have felt guilty and awkward when seeing her father.
However, Yan Xi did not see any sense of shame in Meng Qingshi's eyes towards Mr. Yan.
Yan Xi furrowed her brows and looked at Meng Qingshi with a cold gaze.
"I told you."
Upon hearing this, Meng Qingshi's face broke into a smile, and she gazed at Yan Xi warmly, reaching out to hold her hand to try and close the distance between them.
However, Yan Xi retracted her hand, directly avoiding her contact.
