Su Jingyi's smile froze at the corner of her mouth.
Feeling guilty as if having been a thief, she picked up on Xu Songzhi's implications.
"What do you mean by that?" Ye Mubei was completely confused.
Xu Songzhi let out a cold laugh. The woman before her seemed innocent, like a harmless little rabbit, but in reality, she had been playing Ye Mubei like a fool.
However, compared to Shen Ruoxi, she still found Su Jingyi more pleasing to the eye, at least she held no leverage over her.
Xu Songzhi waived her hand dismissively and said indifferently, "It means nothing. Since you like her, you should treat her well."
Su Jingyi secretly let out a sigh of relief.
"I know, Mother, I will treat Jingyi well." Ye Mubei stroked her waist-length hair, and his gaze upon her grew ever more tender.
The two of them enjoyed several sweet days together, while Shen Ruoxi, on the other hand, was so anxious she couldn't sleep for days.
