Ji Gao paused in his action of picking up food, then very naturally retracted his chopsticks.
He looked at Li Wen with confusion in his eyes. "Where did you hear that from? Yaoyao is our daughter. How could we send her away?"
Towards the end, there was a hint of anger in Ji Gao's tone, as if he was very dissatisfied with the person who spread such rumors.
Gu Xiao looked at Ji Gao having his own words thrown back at him and laughed in her heart. However, the coldness in her eyes deepened.
Ji Gao was such a person. As long as it was profitable, he would not care about anything else. Not to mention, it was just a plan that had yet to be implemented.
As long as he could build a relationship with the Li family, Ji Yao would be useful. He would not give up on Ji Yao.
Gu Xiao clenched the chopsticks in her hand tightly, but she quickly relaxed and continued eating as if nothing had happened.
