What was outrageous was that this young Commander, not yet betrothed, had already been the subject of scandalous rumors with others...
This was not good at all.
Sneering glances fell on Lu Tong, who slightly furrowed her brows.
Qi Yutai had already gone mad suddenly because of Qi Huaying's incident; Pei Yunmeng's actions undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. For him, it was very bad news indeed.

Lu Tong was taken aback.

He said calmly, "She is my creditor."

What started as a fine hunt came to an abrupt end.
