Mu Lan looked at Lin Yize, her eyes filled with bleak coolness.
"I'm doing this for myself, it has nothing to do with Huo Tingxiao.
Lin Yize, I have no romantic feelings for you, this is between you and me, do you understand?"
Lin Yize, struck as if by lightning, could no longer maintain his usual gentle demeanor.
With both hands, he grabbed Mu Lan's shoulders and fiercely pinned her against the wall; the sudden impact caused Mu Lan to wince in pain.
"Lin Yize, have you lost your mind?"
Lin Yize's eyes were filled with pain, unable to accept the words she had just uttered.
"Are you the one who's lost your mind? What kind of person is Huo Tingxiao, don't you know?
Mu Lan, you've forgotten how he treated you before; that's why you are deceived by him today!"
Mu Lan looked at Lin Yize in shock.
"How... how do you know..."
Lin Yize gave a sorrowful smile, softening his tone.
