Jerry said disdainfully, having finally understood.
Joliton's smile froze on his face.
He suddenly realized he'd completely misunderstood Jerry's intentions.
He had originally thought that Jerry had reviewed some information on the Great Jing Empire before his arrival, recognized the member of the Time Girl Group, and was merely venting his frustration at not being properly greeted earlier. That was why he had so eagerly gone straight for the jugular, mocking the sore spot in Ji Shengyue's heart.
But now, it seemed that wasn't the case at all.
"What do you mean by that?"
Ji Shengyue frowned.
She could also tell there was a hidden meaning behind Jerry's words.
Jerry's smile was like a spider lily blooming in the moonlight—mysterious and unsettling.
His fingers traced the silky fabric of his black tuxedo, as if playing a silent melody.
