Since Du Beiye didn't seek protection, then the reason she stayed close to her was to protect her. But they were strangers who had just met for a few days, and she had no reason to protect her at all.
After a while, an absurd thought flashed in Jiao Lizhi's mind as she stared at her fiancée. "Brother Yan, maybe she treats me as her stepmother."
As soon as she said these words, Jin Xuyan flicked her forehead and replied with a hint of helplessness and annoyance in his voice, "What nonsense are you saying? Don't tell me you really believe her words."
Rubbing her forehead, Jiao Lizhi shrugged and replied, "Who knows? Maybe she comes from the future and is indeed your daughter?"
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan shook his head and said, "If she is my daughter from the future, then her mother will only be you. Beside you, I will never like another person, let alone have a child with another woman. So, stop overthinking."
