Chapter 445: Eavesdropping

"But why?" I teased her with a smile.

"If he marries me without loving me, then he'll regret it sooner or later. I can't have him sacrifice his whole life to me because of debt!" Mai Qi said.

"Mai Qi, you're worth the sacrifice. Trust me!" I said affirmatively.

Mai Qi shook her head violently. "Love doesn't work like that. It's true that I love him. I've looked deep inside my heart. My love for him hasn't changed. However, that also means I want him to have true happiness and not be bogged down by debt! That will be very sad."

I placed my hand on her knee and smiled. "Silly girl, he's not going to marry you for debt." I looked into the pavilion and raised my voice. "Mr. Tong Le, can you please come out to explain yourself?"

Mai Qi tightened her grip on my hand, and her face turned pale and then red.
