Listening to Lin Xu comforting him with her words, Ji Zeqiu muttered resentfully, "I already know now, everything you said was just to deceive me."
Last time at home, their mother hadn't acknowledged in front of Ji Tingyang that her favorite son was him.
As a result, Ji Tingyang later mocked him for being overemotional.
Ji Zeqiu was infuriated.
"Don't be mad," Lin Xu said with a gentle smile as she squeezed Ji Zeqiu's annoyed cheeks with both hands.
Lin Xu's palms were warm, heating his cheeks soothingly, and Ji Zeqiu's anger dissipated in an instant.
He suppressed the upward curve of his lips and huffed.
The next moment, a hand encircled Lin Xu's waist and pulled her away, and she stumbled into a sturdy chest.
He took her back from Ji Zeqiu's side.
As if declaring sovereignty, Xie Changyan tightened his hold around her body and glanced at Ji Zeqiu indifferently, "What were you talking about?"
Before she knew it, the person beside Lin Xu had changed to Xie Changyan.
