It was more than half a minute before he spoke.
"You have really changed."
“…”
Mu Zeyu looked down at his coffee cup, as if reminiscing about the past, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly. "I remember when you were fifteen, you were very smart and already a college student. You said you were the youngest student in the class and had nothing in common with them. You always felt lonely."
"I told you back then, don't be afraid, I'm here for you. Do you remember?"
"I don't remember."
“…”
Ji Zhinan looked at him: "I have a bad memory and never remember meaningless things."
Mu Zeyu showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, and his arrogance as a young master came out.
He said with a stern face, "Nannan, it's okay for girls to have a temper, but you also have to know when to stop. Having a temper is cute, but if it's too much, it's just pretentious."
"So what?"
Ji Zhinan took a sip of coffee, leaned back in his chair, and crossed his legs.
"No matter how hypocritical you are, it's not Master Mu's turn to favor you. Why is Master Mu worrying so much?"
“…”
Mu Zeyu's expression froze, and after a long while he spoke: "You really still hate me."
“???”
"I knew that my engagement with Xia Xia would be a shadow you'd never be able to get over, because you knew I wouldn't belong to you anymore..."
Ji Zhinan twitched his lips speechlessly.
Mu Zeyu gritted his teeth and looked at Ji Zhinan with agitated emotions: "But even so, you can't hurt yourself to avenge me. Is there any point in doing so? Even if you fall, I can't give up Ji Zhixia for you. Don't you understand?!"
Seeing that Ji Zhinan didn't understand, Mu Zeyu laughed.
"Don't pretend, I know everything."
"You became Gu Yibei's mistress, right? Minmin was fired because of you whispering in Gu Yibei's ear."
Ji Zhinan was amused: "Master, your sister won't die if she doesn't do anything wrong, what does it have to do with others?"
"But if it weren't for you, how could Gu Yibei deliberately target the Mu family and Minmin?"
"That might be because you have a problem with your character. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he wanted to get rid of this evil for the people."
“…”
Seeing that Ji Zhinan still "refuses to repent", Mu Zeyu has an expression of disappointment.
“That’s enough!”
He growled, shaking his head in disappointment.
"You've truly disappointed me. You've even destroyed yourself just to get revenge on me. Do you really think I'll come back to you? Give up! Your sister Ji Zhixia and I are already engaged. She and I are husband and wife, the ones who will spend our lives together. You're just my sister-in-law, my wife's younger sister. We don't have any other identities."
“…”
"I hope you can calm down and not hurt others just because I don't want you to. Minmin is innocent. I hope you can forgive her and let Gu Yibei stop."
"Forgive?" Ji Zhinan smiled: "It's God's business to forgive her. If she commits suicide again, I don't mind sending her to see God!"
"You're so arrogant!" Mu Zeyu gritted his teeth. "Ji Zhinan, you should know when to stop. It's just a small matter. Do you have to make such a big fuss? Minmin was wrong. If she apologizes to you, can't you just forgive her?!"
"If saying sorry works, why do we need the police?"
“…”
