Qiao Yuxiao took a deep breath. "I was presumptuous."
She had thought her personal matters had complicated the cooperation between the two families.
She stood up and apologized sincerely, "I'm sorry, I was too presumptuous today."
Wen Jiang waved her hand. "You don't need to apologize. On the contrary, I quite admire you for speaking up about matters directly. I like people like you."
Wen Jiang even clicked her tongue. Could such a girl really be the vicious female rival I'll confront later on? I think your System has a problem with its selection.
Zero Egg by now had learned to quibble. It's the result calculated by the Heart of the World, not me.
Qiao Yuxiao was stunned.
She looked towards Wen Jiang. The admiration in her eyes didn't seem feigned. She was accustomed to circuitous ways of speaking. Since childhood, her parents had taught people of their standing to conceal their preferences, never allowing anyone to discern even a hint of them.
