He put his phone down, stared deep into her eyes, and asked, "Do you believe her explanation?"
"Me?"
The man spoke in a light tone, "Yes, if you believe her, I'll keep her. If you don't, I'll let her go."
Chi Huan's eyes widened slightly as she looked up at him.
But the man's expression was flat, clearly he would do as he said.
"She's your subordinate. Whether what she says is true or false, shouldn't you know better than I do?"
Mo Shiqian lifted her chin with his finger, his voice cool, "I don't care whether it's true or false. What I care about is whether she becomes a thorn in your heart."
Chi Huan's mind spun before she grasped his meaning.
If she minded, he would let that woman go, even if the reality was just coincidence and misunderstanding.
If she didn't care, even if that woman was scheming and playing mind games... he wouldn't mind.
