"I love you both equally. Whether it's you or Luo'er, I'll be sad if either of you gets hurt. So Zhao'er, promise your father that you will never be an enemy of your sister, okay?"
Ming Zhao initially wanted to playfully say no, but seeing the seriousness in Ming Yi's eyes, he swallowed his words and simply nodded slightly.
She didn't know what she was hoping for. Even Wu Zhaoliang knew she was the one who was most hurt, so how could Ming Yi not know?
