Qiao Mu's anger flared uncontrollably.
At first, she didn't want to dwell on the matter too much and simply brushed off the repugnant Baron before her. Who would have guessed that, in his pursuit of reconciliation, he would persistently push the boundaries?

Su Xihua noticed an instant shift in the girl's demeanor. Her previous nonchalance gave way to an aura of prickly determination. Her cold, menacing gaze locked onto him with unwavering intensity.
This sudden change sent a shiver down his spine. For some reason, he felt a subtle but undeniable fear in the face of that intense gaze.
Simultaneously, he couldn't believe that he, a grown man, was rattled by a young lady's glare. It was almost unbearable.
