"You've become a silly fox. Do you think I'm afraid that you'll feel guilty and make up such a big story?" The careful look on her face hurt his heart deeply. His girl had suffered all kinds of hardships since she was young. Before she met Grandpa Gen and Uncle Chen, she didn't receive the love and care of her family, nor did she receive the protection that she deserved. Therefore, she was so afraid of losing her family, losing all her happiness, and even more afraid of implicating those who cared about her.
Holding her fingers tightly, Xia Jinyuan said in a low and gentle voice, "The matters between the two families can't be explained in a few words. If you're interested, I'll tell you about it another day."
Ye Jian finally believed him. Her expression relaxed. She smiled and said, "No wonder I didn't like Du Jiayi when she first spoke. It's because of you."
Xia Jinyuan's heart softened when he saw her smile.
