Watching Lu Xinbai leave in a huff, Gu Qianqian grumbled, "Be careful, you might really upset her..."
"She's just meddling unnecessarily, this isn't something she can really handle."
Although his words were true, they were still too blunt. Gu Qianqian couldn't help but speak up for her, "She just wants the best for Lu Yebai."
"And I do too..."
Gu Qianqian rolled her eyes at him, "But who can understand your kind of 'wanting the best'?"
"If you could understand everything, how could I stay ahead?"
As he spoke, the man's hand was already around her waist, each word filled with warmth, making Gu Qianqian's face blush. Realizing he had no intention to continue, she pushed him slightly, discontented as she called him, "You manipulator..."
"I wouldn't dare call myself a manipulator."
With these words, his gaze sharpened instantly, "At least, compared to Ling Dawei, I'm willing to admit defeat..."
