Chapter 171: I'm...Being Blackmailed

"My grandfather is calling me...Tangning, I will go take care of him," Long Jie no longer dared to act cool in front of Tangning; she knew how observant she was.

Tangning tightened her grip on her phone and nodded as she replied, "Have a good rest."

Long Jie hung up as she collapsed on the floor in exhaustion.

It seemed dealing with Lan Xi didn't even take this much energy.

Long Jie had considered telling Tangning everything straight away. But apart from dragging her into this mess, she couldn't think what benefit could come from it.

All along, Tangning had already suffered too much. If she was to tell Tangning about this incident, then Tangning and Lan Xi definitely wouldn't let the matter go.
