In the face of external interference, Chi Yu and Qi Chao tacitly chose to conceal the truth from each other.
Chi Yu thought she could handle Mo Ru on her own; there was no need to put Qi Chao in an awkward position.
Though Qi Chao made no effort to hide his disdain for Mo Ru, the ties of blood were not something easily severed.
Until the day their relationship completely fractured, Chi Yu silently acknowledged that there was still a chance for reconciliation between Qi Chao and Mo Ru.
As for Qi Chao, he kept things from Chi Yu because he believed Qi Chongming would not dare act against her for the time being.
And should tensions truly reach a breaking point, he had complete confidence in his ability to protect Chi Yu from harm.
Both maintained a façade of normalcy, dining and dating as though nothing had happened.
Privately, however, things were far from peaceful.
