Chapter 1048: Threat

It was no surprise that this individual dared to be so arrogant…

He Zhiqing clenched her teeth and decided to reveal half of the truth. Since Qiao Xuan wouldn't listen to her, she had no choice but to say something.

She couldn't risk whether or not Qiao Xuan would seek out her cousin.

"I didn't intend to harm her. I wanted to trip her up, but I had no intention of causing her harm. I would have jumped in to save her."

Qiao Xuan widened her eyes and regarded her as if she were a fool, as if to say, "Do you think I'll believe such nonsense?"

He Zhiqing felt a twinge of embarrassment.

Even if she were a bystander, she would find herself perplexed, let alone Qiao Xuan.

He Zhiqing took a deep breath and had no choice but to continue explaining.
