章 1607: 1607. Not a precedent

This solemn apology didn't seem to mean much to the young man.

His eyes slightly closed, he appeared lost in thought, with his clear pupils gradually deepening at this moment.

Ji Yuchen didn't know if she could win back even the slightest bit of a chance this time, her heart filled with unspeakable apprehension and anticipation.

The next second, her lower jaw was gripped hard by a sudden force, tightening bit by bit.

Her eyes were forced to look directly into the young man's, his voice cold and light, asking, "Why did you treat Qiao Xu that way?"

He didn't seem to be questioning her; it was more like he was admonishing a child who had done something wrong.

For a moment, Ji Yuchen's eyes were lost in thought, she was also asking herself – why?

Despite the risk of being discovered by the young man, she couldn't suppress the unwillingness in her heart to deal with Qiao Xu.
