Lan Xi's face was expressionless, showing no emotion. "We are just solving each other's needs. There is no question of responsibility!"
Although Cheng Chiyan had expected Lan Xi to have this attitude, he still felt uncomfortable. It was not because of rejection, but because of real sadness.
My father said that only those who have never experienced positive emotional feedback can be insensitive or even incompetent in this regard...
A long time ago, he discovered that when Lan Xi was surrounded by an atmosphere that she had never experienced, she would show doubt or confusion.
For example, the atmosphere between Bai Yun and Bai Xingtang, and when Li Qian came to him for Lan Sisi, the most obvious thing was the seemingly tough words that Bai Yun said when she cared about her.
Not hearing Cheng Chiyan say anything else, Lan Xi turned to look at him and found that he seemed to be filled with sadness?

Cheng Chiyan felt that Lan Xi had misunderstood his meaning. He did not ask her to support his family...
Lan Xi knew what he was going to say and raised her hand to signal him to listen to her: "Finally! I personally hate this kind of relationship, so don't mention it again in the future! I will find a solution to my sleep disorder as soon as possible and won't let our deal last long!"
