Qin Qingnan ignored Mother Qin's shocked questions. Today, after being urged by the Queen, he was determined to come back and thoroughly negotiate with his parents.
If he kept dawdling, the Queen would no longer support him being together with Lin Ziran. Without the Queen's blessing, Lin Ziran's resolve to walk down this path with him would be halved.
Now he felt like he was being pushed forward by a whip, unable to retreat a step. Even retreating half a step might mean losing the woman he loves most in this lifetime.
Seeing Qin Qingnan not speaking, Mother Qin felt frustrated with unanswered questions and immediately sat next to him, asking, "You should speak, is the Queen's punishment of Baili Yen really related to Lin Ziran?"
Qin Qingnan chuckled softly, "Actually, the answer is already in your heart. You've understood it, so you needn't ask me. You're not questioning but afraid you didn't expect the Queen to treat Xiao Ran so well, right?"
