Xie Jinbai swallowed the bitterness in his throat and looked at her. "It was because I liked you that you were able to 'handle' me. Don't even think about teaching Shen Hanyue your methods to come and 'handle me' again."
He was a person.
Not a marionette she could manipulate.
He wouldn't just offer his love, completely unchanged, to a different person repeating the same experience.
'Don't even think about teaching Shen Hanyue your methods to come and 'handle me' again...'
Cui Lingyao was in disbelief.
She had only told Shen Hanyue once that she would help her "handle" Xie Jinbai.
And that was on the very day she had been reborn.
To this day, she hadn't even acted on it.
"You..."
"Curious how I know?" Xie Jinbai's lips quirked into a smile. "It was just a coincidence. I was leaving the palace that day and happened to pass by your carriage. I heard the entire conversation."
