Chapter 637: Counter the Scheme with a Scheme
Li Qiao raised her eyebrows slightly and answered crisply, "Of course not."
"I killed her, and you don’t hate me?" The man’s Adam’s apple moved as a rich, soft light appeared in his eyes.
Li Qiao gave Shang Yu a sidelong glance, folded the note, and tucked it into her pocket. "How could I be so irrational!
