Xiao Ji was seated beside Su Hongxing. When the scene of Ye Qilan and Du Qingyu surrounded by entertainment reporters appeared on the TV screen, his words were laced with sarcasm.
Su Hongxing withdrew her gaze and didn't respond.
Ye Qilan had already reported to her about approaching Du Qingyu. Perhaps the business about being surrounded by paparazzi was prearranged, with Ye Qilan tipping off the reporters beforehand.
Even though she had known that his "date" with Du Qingyu would eventually be exposed by the media, seeing him protecting Du Qingyu in person still felt piercing.
"Amou, you should see his true character clearly now. A man like him is unstable; at the very least, he doesn't respect you…"
"That's enough," Su Hongxing interrupted Xiao Ji.
She was already unhappy, and now Xiao Ji was badmouthing Ye Qilan. Listening to him only made her feel worse.
