Chapter 49: Ignoring her

"Yep. You will never know just how much effort we put into chasing away those people who liked to gossip about you."

Li Caiyi never heard Li Chunhua and Meng Renshu mention this, even in her previous life. Although it resulted in her isolation, they did that to protect her. Li Caiyi knew that Meng Renshu always treated her like a little sister, but she never knew he did so much for her behind the scenes.
