Although she had some suspicions, when Qiao Yanjue admitted it himself, Liu Manhong was still shocked.
He liked Xia Xibei?!
"Wait a minute, is that why you asked me to be her guardian?" Liu Manhong looked at Qiao Yanjue in shock and confusion.
She had wondered. Qiao Yanjue was not a warm person, so why had he suddenly asked her to help out as a guardian? This was out of character for him!
Now she knew. He wanted closer access to her!
"No," Qiao Yanjue shook his head, "I just wanted to repay her for saving my life."
"Saving your life?!" Liu Manhong drew back another breath.
Only then did Qiao Yanjue realize that he had said too much and couldn't help but feel a little chagrined.
"Tell me, what happened exactly?"
Liu Manhong did not think too much about it before. When Qiao Yanjue asked her to help, she did. It was not a difficult task.
Why was there a life-saving favor involved here?
