"Yan Qiu," Mr. Xie said helplessly. His wife was so fast she hadn't even said a word before yanking his jacket off. 'She was just defending Jing Wu a moment ago,' he thought. 'Isn't this a bit hypocritical?'
Qin Mei watched Mrs. Xie's maneuver in shock. 'She isn't wary of outsiders, but she's on guard against her own son. This is just ridiculous.'
"What's with the looks on your faces?" Jie Jingjue had a bad feeling. He felt like he shouldn't have come home.
