It was hard to say whether the allure of the Governor Mansion was too great, or the radiant Qiao Wei was simply too captivating. Or perhaps Gao Qiang was just overconfident. He had actually believed Qiao Wei's nonsense about falling for him at first sight, completely oblivious to her ulterior motives.
Recalling the cruel things Gao Qiang had said to Xu Jiali, even a vixen like Qiao Wei found him despicably low. Even if his love for Xu Jiali hadn't been genuine, he shouldn't have trampled all over her self-respect.
"Who let her drink?" Jie Jingchen's deep voice was laced with a terrifying menace.
"Drinking?" Qiao Wei looked completely lost. 'What did that have to with anything? Didn't she cough up blood because she was so furious at what Gao Qiang said?'
Qiao Wei suddenly remembered that Xu Jiali had stomach problems. Annoyed, she tapped her head and said remorsefully, "Cousin, I forgot. I forgot your aunt has a bad stomach."
