Zhou Ziqing finally managed to stop her tears, gaining a bit of consolation.
However, her gaze towards Qin Muchuan was still filled with reproach.
Qin Muchuan was unmoved, steadfast in his beliefs. Until all the answers were clear, he was determined to seek the truth.
This was his fundamental right, otherwise everything else was off the table.
He pulled Lin Xiangwan towards him, speaking in a reluctant whisper near her ear. "What right do you have to answer for me? I didn't ask you to apologize for me!"
Lin Xiangwan didn't know what to make of this man any more. Despite her efforts to resolve the issue for him, she had gained nothing in return, right?
However, he did make some sense. Perhaps, she had been meddling too much earlier!
She pursed her lips and took a deep breath, choosing not to argue with him.
Given the tense situation, it was much better to offer him comfort and support than to engage him in futile debates.
