Cheng Qing'er, upon hearing the first part of the sentence, revealed a shy smile, but Di Jinye's last three words jolted her back to reality.
Humiliation, but more so anger.
She instantly widened her eyes in disbelief and raised her voice to question, "I'm not worthy? How am I inferior to Cheng Ruowei? Is she worthy?!"
Di Jinye's narrowed eyes were a dark and dangerous warning.
"In my eyes, you don't even have the qualifications to compare yourself to Cheng Ruowei. To continue asking why would be to disgrace yourself."
He felt he must have been out of his mind to have agreed to meet Cheng Qing'er.
Jealousy can make people lose their reason.
But he would not admit that he was jealous of the wild man Ruowei was hiding.
The futile encounter with no gains made Di Jinye even more irritable due to the wasted time.
"Miss Cheng, I won't see you out."
