Gu Dongxing didn’t allow her to back down: "How is it not possible? Just as one observes children from a young age or horses by their hooves, the Ye Family just liked what they saw in me, so they kept me as a backup plan.

If they truly cared about me, wouldn’t they have been concerned?
You know how well they have lived in the large compounds, as relatives, they sit on high, and just a little help from them could have made our lives easier.
