Chapter 40: Greedy

"It's not impolite if the gift came with the right intentions." He retorted, crossing his arms. Why was she so stubborn? Didn't women like receiving gifts? Especially ones that were expensive and classy?

Zhao Lifei blinked at his words. "Why are you so nice to me? I thought you hated me."

Her words surprised Yang Feng who also felt confused. She was right. Why was he so nice to her? The thought confused him.

"I don't hate you."

For once, Zhao Lifei didn't know what to say. She stared at him and studied his expression. With his firm eyes and unwavering posture, she could tell he wasn't lying.

"But I do." She quietly muttered, turning her back and beginning to tidy her things.

Yang Feng was taken back by her words. Did she hate him? Why?

He had been so nice and protective of her to the point where the people misunderstood him as her boyfriend.
