"With the way you were talking and then hanging up that time, who knew what you were up to when you came to chat with me? For safety and self-protection, I had to act like that," she explained.

Chen Qiaoqiao smiled innocently, and Wang Jie really felt foolish, remaining silent with his chin propped on his hand, gazing out the window with dissatisfaction in his eyes.
