章節 107: Mysterious Woman And Old Man

"Don't put yourself down," Rongmei said softly, fidgeting with her fingers "My environment was far more conducive to growth than yours."

Xiao Chen sighed, a faint smile tugging at his lips. "If you put it that way, Mei, you weren't exactly in the most suitable environment either," he replied, his tone gentle.

He reached out and pulled her closer, his embrace radiating warmth despite the cold resolve in his eyes.

"Mei, I will use the Immortal Ye family to their fullest," Xiao Chen said, his voice dropping to a chilling tone.

"And when the time comes, I'll be the reason for their downfall." His expression turned cold and a murderous intent flickered in his gaze, sharp as a blade.

"Xiao Chen, don't put yourself in danger because of me," Rongmei pleaded, shaking her head vehemently. "It's my revenge. I'll handle it on my own—"

"I've already made my decision," Xiao Chen interrupted, placing a finger gently on her lips.
