"Why would I like you? I've already told you, there's no love between us. Since you want me to stay by your side, you must already realize this. You only use my father to threaten me, which is the only reason I'm staying."
Ji Yu was crystal clear on this matter, understanding her own thoughts entirely.
"I've never cared whether you like me or not. I don't even care if I have any feelings for you. The only thing I care about is my father's well-being."
As those words left her lips, Jiang Huai's expression contorted to an unrecognizable degree.
"Yu, do you know what you're saying? Do you realize the consequences of hurting me like this? Right now, you're entirely dependent on me, yet you choose to say such cutting words. Do you think your father can survive this way?"
"So all you ever do is use my father to threaten me. If my father can live, then I'm willing to die. Why don't you just kill me right now?" Ji Yu snapped, choosing to completely give up on pretense.
