บท 1916: I Call the Shots

Zi Beiying continued, "Also, Charles Cretan brazenly said that if I married him, he would help put an end to the ambushing. He blatantly pretended that he was not behind them."

He was certainly shameless.

"Since you know that the Cretans were behind it, why didn't you spill on them? I'm sure no one appreciates this exploitation and slander!" asked Gu Ning.

My family is in really deep water now," said Zi Beiying. She sounded deeply regretful and worried. If she had not gone to Country Y, none of this would have happened.
