Chapter 44: Easy Prey
The moment she spoke, Lan Qiaoyan was startled. What in the world? She had been so careful to prevent it, so how did that brat get in touch with her daughter? To actually run into him here, it was simply unbelievable, a damned ill-fated connection?
Hearing that the boy refused to join Far-Gazing Tower and wanted to make his own way, she breathed a sigh of relief, then felt both annoyed and amused.
She had been worrying for nothing; that boy truly wasn't pretending after leaving the Living Prison. If he really liked her daughter, he wouldn't miss such an opportunity.
If he truly liked her daughter, with his shameless persistence and considerable means, she would be worried and afraid.
After realizing his affection was fake, she gnashed her teeth in frustration.
Is my daughter not good enough? That brat couldn't even be bothered to pretend.
Miao Yilan said wistfully, “I’ve become an accomplice.
I shouldn’t have lent him that money. Without it, he wouldn’t have been able to pull off something like this.”
“Haha.” Lan Qiaoyan burst into laughter.
