章 1036: We Are Strangers

"Why should I appreciate it?" Ye Leng'an scoffed. "You want to give me something. As the person involved, don't I have the right to say no?"

"We didn't mean it like that!" Lian Mengzhu rushed to explain. "We... we just wanted to do something nice for you. Why can't you accept it?"
