"No."
His cold tone left no room for argument, a rejection that didn't even offer the slightest chance.
"Someone will take care of you, so you don't need to worry about it."
Mo Sangyu pursed her lips, feeling somewhat aggrieved, her eyes welling up with tears, and blurted out in a fit of pique,
"Is the person you want to see... Miss Chu?"
She bit her lip, her voice trembling as she couldn't help but ask,

Jing Min lowered his eyelashes, a hint of weariness lurking at the corners of his eyes. His handsome features were sharp, his thin lips slightly pursed.
She was as calm as a polished block of ice, chillingly cold, yet captivating.
His style of doing things has never been one of concealment or explanation.
Whether he likes it or not, he has never needed to explain to anyone.
Mo Sangyu's problems had already gone far beyond the bounds; normally, he wouldn't have even given her a second glance.
