"Later on, it so happened that her father became my mentor. Her father watched me grow up as well and he was quite close with my father, so he spoke to my father about an engagement…" Xia Zhe's voice became softer and softer as he spoke.

Xia Zhe reached out helplessly and flicked her head as he said, "What's in that little head of yours, I'm not finished yet."
Qiao Mei rubbed her head without saying anything.
