Chapitre 38: Listen Closely to This Part

"Ning Jin was momentarily blinded by her emotions, which led her to frame you. After her apology, can we let it go without further consequences?"

Jin Yao pursed his lips, adding three more words: "I beg you."

It was rare for Jin Yao to humble himself before Chi Yu.

Precisely because of this rarity, Chi Yu found it not only laughable but infuriating.

Rarity often implies value.

Even if Jin Yao, as usual, had acted arrogant and demanded that Chi Yu be magnanimous, she wouldn't have been biting her tongue, suppressing her anger.

Even a treacherous beast, after ten years, should be somewhat tamed.

Yet, Jin Yao was even more ungrateful than a beast.

Chi Yu believed she had treated Jin Yao fairly.

For the sake of their childhood bond, how many times had she sweet-talked her father into ignoring investment returns, practically throwing money at the Jin family as if it were charity?
