"I told you to get lost!"
It would have been better if she hadn't stopped it; the more she sided with Tong Di, the more the fire in Jiang Zhenlin's eyes burned. Provoked by Lin Qingwan's cold indifference, he immediately questioned, "Are you siding with him because you want to repay his life-saving grace with your body?"
"Didn't you like that guy surnamed Ruan last time? You let him hurt my sister and even turned her away from you?"
