"Mingzhu, Mingzhu! I couldn't even make it to the preliminaries, and there are people plotting against me from behind. You have to help me! I can't explain this to my family when I get home!"
Li Songwen was clearly treating Xiang Mingzhu as his last hope.
He was in love with Xiang Mingzhu too!
If it weren't for Xiang Mingzhu's hints, he wouldn't have targeted Qiao Xi.
It must have been Qiao Xi's people who beat him up.
Xiang Mingzhu, failing to extricate herself from his embrace, said, "Li Songwen, let's go inside and talk!"
It wouldn't look good if they were seen pulling and tugging at each other in the hotel corridor.
Li Songwen immediately agreed.
He followed Xiang Mingzhu into the room and watched as she closed the door, then said, "Mingzhu, what should I do? Ten years ago, I was ninth in the Needle Trial Competition, and my family was hoping I would make the top three this time. But I didn't even make it to the final round..."
