Could it be because she brought Cheng Yanqing to the meeting?
Of course, Shen Lan would not accept this reasoning.
She wanted to confront Ji Changhe and clarify things, but she had never imagined that Cheng Yanqing would obstruct her this blatantly!
Shen Lan was immediately irritated, "Cheng Yanqing, does having money make you so arrogant? This is my job. I accepted this work before because I needed the money! Now, we haven't created any major issue, on what ground he can demand compensation from me? I told you not to come, but you didn't listen. What possible issue could Ji Changhe and I have now?"
She and Ji Changhe couldn't go back to the way they were. If she hadn't been firm, she would have long been involved with Ji Changhe.
But she didn't.
Because her conscience wouldn't let her.
And look at Cheng Yanqing! Is he that afraid of her rekindling things with Ji Changhe?
