"What if she'd been able to tell or she suspected that the two of us ganged up to coax her into this? It's fine for me, but if she knew that as her biological daughter, you still wanted to deceive her and set her up, how do you think she would feel?"
Lu Qi's heart sank. She hesitated and did not speak.
"So that's why I deliberately appeared to hesitate, as if I didn't have time to consider this problem. If I considered it in front of her face, she would then wholeheartedly choose to believe it," He Zhengbai said in the end.
Lu Qi retracted her gaze from He Zhengbai and heard He Zhengbai say in a somber voice, "Lu Qi, the two of us will get married. And from the start, when we were still dating until now, we have come so far and for so long. We should trust each other more and more. But the exact opposite happened. You're more and more distrustful of me and keep being suspicious of me.
