Seeing this, Jin Linlin and Cao Jiao rushed behind them like the wind, gently patting their backs and massaging them carefully, and asked flatteringly if anyone else knew that it was they who set the fire?
Jiang Shuyan was so angry that he cried and laughed at the same time, not knowing what to do:
"Are you scared now? Don't worry, no one knows. We've already cleaned up the mess. Don't be so impulsive again. No matter what happens, don't do it yourself. Ask the people below to handle it. Do you understand?"
