Kang Jichuan instantly came back to his senses. He seemed to have been hypnotized just now and almost told the truth. Did Xi Xi recover her memory?
At that instant just now, Kang Jichuan seemed to have returned to that day five years ago. At that time, Xi Xi's gaze was the same as now. It was cold, full of despair and resentment as well as a trace of determination.
At this moment, his mind was a mess. For the first time, he felt flustered. Everyone's eyes were filled with doubt as if they had already discovered the secret he had been hiding for many years.
He was the earl of Y Nation. If his past was exposed, not only would his reputation be ruined, but he would also lose his noble identity, money, and freedom.
Kang Jichuan's heart was filled with fear. He did not dare to raise his head to look at Qiao Xi and could only say in a low voice, "Xi Xi, I shouldn't have forced you. It's my fault. I… I'll take my leave first."
