Jiang Jianian remained unmoved, looking at Ye Zhiwei without any emotional fluctuation, and said coolly, "Is that so?"

Still angry.

Ye Zhiwei: A pitiful little thing who takes the blame for the scheming girl's anger. I hope the scheming girl can make money to support her.

You don't seem to be in a good mood.

Jiang Jianian showed no intention of letting Ye Zhiwei get in the car. His long index finger was pressed against the car door, and his long legs showed no sign of moving. Instead, he said expressionlessly, "So you knew."

No, she didn't want to know.

Ye Zhiwei took a deep breath. "The situation was urgent at the time, and there was a reason for it. When I arrived, I saw that the scene was a mess, and Yingying was crying so pitifully. I couldn't help but make a judgment and sided with Yingying. Although I said a few bad things to you, I was just impatient and spoke without thinking, which is understandable."

Jiang Jianian chickened out as soon as he was confronted, but Miss Ye was very good at talking back.

“The Criminal Procedure Law has a principle of presumption of innocence. Before a trial proves guilt, the accused is presumed innocent. Just because Ye Yingying cried a few times, does that make it my fault? So, is this the kind of judicial spirit we future law students have?” Jiang Jianian simply went along with Ye Zhiwei’s defense and played along with her: “Even in the absence of guilt, there is a principle of innocence. You are quite arbitrary and decisive.”

Ye Zhiwei was speechless for a long while before looking at Jiang Jianian in disbelief, "You read the book I gave you?"

"I've seen a bit," Jiang Jianian said calmly. "Didn't you give it to me so I could see it?"

Is this what they mean by striking a snake at its vital spot?

The accusations were extremely harsh, targeting areas where Ye Zhiwei excelled. Ye Zhiwei now realized that she had been quite reckless and completely lacked the rigor expected of a legal professional.

Ye Zhiwei pondered for a moment: I'm sorry, my adorable little green tea sister, I can only choose to betray her temporarily in order to protect myself.

"Yes, I admit I was wrong about this. I may not have been able to objectively ascertain the truth, and my findings may have contradicted some facts. But there is still room for maneuver. Since it was a misunderstanding that upset you, it can be resolved. You can keep a note of it for now and let it go. Once you've won her over, you can settle the score later and give her a little teasing."

After Ye Zhiwei finished speaking, she carefully looked at Jiang Jianian. Seeing that Jiang Jianian seemed to be thinking, she continued, "When you're with a girl, if you can't get the upper hand in this situation, you can get back at her in other ways."

Jiang Jianian moved her long legs away.

Ye Zhiwei sensed that the big boss had calmed down, and got into the car smoothly. She checked the time and thankfully, she wouldn't be late and would still have time.

That was a close call!

“I’m in a really bad mood, so I might bully you pretty badly in the future,” Jiang Jianian suddenly said.

Ye Zhiwei felt incredibly guilty: she really was selfish, she was sorry, scheming girl, but this was probably... fate after all. QAQ

Actually, Jiang Jianian is also very good. He is good-looking, has a good figure, and is intelligent. He will be very rich in the future. Except for his bad personality, he is good in every way and is developing in an even better direction. Look, he did not stop the green tea girl from entering the entertainment industry and even discovered her talent in cooking.

After mentally preparing herself, Ye Zhiwei nodded and said, "But we still need to restrain ourselves."

This exchange was indeed effective; the temperature inside the car seemed to rise considerably, and Jiang Jianian no longer appeared as cold and unapproachable as she had in the morning.

Ye Zhiwei sacrificed a little bit of the green tea girl's future freedom in exchange for a temporary harmonious relationship between the two.

Just as Ye Zhiwei breathed a slight sigh of relief, Jiang Jianian looked at her and continued, "There are still many things about her that I don't like."

Is this an emotional counseling session with her?

It seems today's conversation was particularly effective; the male protagonist couldn't help but seek emotional counseling.

Since things had come to this point, in order to keep the male lead calm, Ye Zhiwei had to say, "Girls should be more accommodating. Although the score should be settled, you should at least restrain yourself from bullying him, so as not to scare him away."

After Ye Zhiwei finished answering, Jiang Jianian slowly pressed the pause button on his phone's recording function.
