Xi Jiu knew about Ruan Qi's relationship with the Cheng family, and upon hearing that Cheng Jinyan wanted to discuss something with her and Ruan Munan, he had some suspicions.
He protected Ruan Qi as he opened the car door for Ruan Munan. Just as Ruan Qi was about to get inside, she heard Xia Ying call out to Ruan Munan again.
Ruan Munan ignored it, opened the driver's door, and sat inside the car.
Xia Ying stomped her foot angrily, wanting to step forward, but was stopped by a sharp glance from Xi Jiu.
"If you keep bothering Xiao Qi and her brother, I'll have Cheng Qi deal with you personally," Xi Jiu said coldly.
Xia Ying's heart felt like it dropped into an icy pit.
She watched with a pale face as Ruan Munan's car slowly drove away, her hands and feet growing cold.
Beside her, Cheng Jinyan turned his head, his indifferent gaze landing on her.
