Sometimes she envied Xiao Qingxue, who could say whatever she wanted and do whatever she wanted without any scruples, without having to consider other people's feelings or the consequences of her actions.
This is the kind of girl who grew up pampered and cherished.
There was a time when Yi Yi was in the jungle, where she could be carefree and do whatever she wanted without any restraint.
She didn't speak, and Xiao Qingxue wasn't annoyed. Perhaps because she no longer considered Yi Yi a rival in love, her attitude towards her became much kinder.
"I don't care whose young mistress you are, as long as you don't try to take Jinyan away from me, you can do whatever you want! I apologize for what I did to you before."
Xiao Qingxue reached out her hand, looking at her earnestly.
This surprised Yi Yi quite a bit.
Xiao Qingxue, such an arrogant and domineering person, actually apologized? Did the sun rise in the west today?
If she was genuinely apologizing, then Yi Yi felt that Xiao Qingxue could be considered to have a true character. It's much better than those who smile at you to your face but stab you in the back.
"I'm sorry, I don't accept your apology."
It's okay to apologize for doing something wrong, but that doesn't mean others have to accept your apology. If every mistake could be made up for with an apology, how would the harm done to others be repaired?
There's a saying that goes, "If apologies were enough, what would we need the police for?"
“You…” Xiao Qingxue stomped her foot angrily and looked at Xiao Jinyan for help. But the latter remained unmoved, seemingly ignoring her hint.
Xiao Qingxue snorted and said, "Fine, if you don't want to accept it, then forget it. I've already apologized, so I don't owe you anything anymore."
After saying that, he raised his chin and walked away without looking back.
For a moment, only Xiao Jinyan and Yi Yi remained in the corridor.
"Your name?"
Xiao Jinyan asked.
He never believed from the beginning that her name was "Muguo".
Since he already knew her true identity, Yi Yi felt there was nothing left to hide.
“My name is Yi Yi. Mu Guo, Mu as in Mu Nanxun, and Guo as in fruit, that’s my daughter’s name.”
Although he already knew that this woman had been married and had children, Xiao Jinyan still felt uncomfortable hearing it come from her mouth again.
"So that's why you asked me to borrow those things."
Xiao Jinyan's lips curled into a smile.
He wasn't mistaken; this woman was indeed extraordinary. Calm, intelligent, and patient.
He simply didn't know that her current composure, intelligence, and forbearance were all forged through bloodshed and turmoil.
"I haven't thanked Mr. Xiao yet."
"How do you plan to thank me?" Xiao Jinyan leaned closer, towering over her, a flirtatious smile playing on his lips. "How about repaying me with your body?"
Yi instinctively took a step back. "Mr. Xiao, I have never forgotten my identity as a married woman. You rescued me from the savage village and helped me successfully send the person who harmed me to prison. I am very grateful. However, gratitude is gratitude, but I will not betray my family and my children because of gratitude."
Although it was an expected answer, it still sounded jarring to Xiao Jinyan.
What an ungrateful woman, cutting ties with him so quickly. I should never have saved her!
"Xiao Jinyan..." Yi called his name.
She called him "Xiao Jinyan" instead of "President Xiao," which made Xiao Jinyan feel more at ease.
"Is there anything else you want to say?"
