Chu Lingyang knew that Lan Ji must have been frightened by the fact that Chu Qianli would personally oversee the execution of her own grand uncle.
He softened his voice, "Lanlan, you've spent too little time with Little Lili, you don't understand her nature yet."
"If you have time in the future, interact with her more, and you'll see, she's an extremely kind girl."
He smiled, trying to ease the atmosphere a bit, "Trust me, she truly is a kind person, don't let her cold exterior deceive you."
"You say she is, so I believe you. As for interacting more..."
Lan Ji forced a slight smile, "You know I don't like these kinds of relationships, I just want to take care of my own little home; those things, I don't like to do."
"Alright, if you don't like it, don't do it. Lanlan, whatever you want is fine, just don't worry, relax."
"Hmm."
Lan Ji leaned against his embrace, lowering her lashes, not letting him see through her thoughts.
