It was even more shocking than the whip marks on his body.
It's hard to imagine how she got through it.
Qin Wenjun noticed the gaze and instinctively hid her hand in her sleeve.
After hiding it, I felt that I had been too deliberate.
She changed the subject, saying, "Why doesn't Lord Bai accept my gift of gratitude?"
Bai Yanzhang turned his face away and said calmly, "I never accept bribes."
Qin Wenjun: "???"
