"Chen Mo!!"
Xu Qingyi was already feeling uncomfortable from being restrained, and seeing the "culprit" only fueled her embarrassment and anger. Without a word, she raised her palm and struck.
?!
Chen Mo dodged swiftly, grabbed Xu Qingyi's wrist, pinned her arm behind her, and frowned, saying,
"Director Xu, what is the meaning of this? Why are you hitting people the moment we meet?"
"Let me go!"
Xu Qingyi struggled fiercely.
*Their posture, with one in front and one behind, was somewhat indecent.*
*There could be palace servants passing by at any moment, getting caught like this would not be great.*
"I can let you go, but you have to promise not to make a move."
"Let me go first, then we'll talk!"
As soon as Chen Mo released her hand, Xu Qingyi began performing a spell, intending to go all out.
*Seeing her relentless approach, Chen Mo's eyebrows shot up, and a trace of anger bubbled up inside him.*
