"This morning, Zhao Ji gave gifts to everyone in the Su family, saying he was thanking them for taking care of Su Yihui. But the gift for me was the most valuable. Just now at Fanjinlou, we ran into Zhao Ji by chance, and he was very attentive to me."
"They said we met by chance, but I always felt that Su Yihui did it on purpose, deliberately getting close to me in front of Zhao Ji."
