"..."
Jiang Ni's spine stiffened as she realized what he was talking about.
"Not at all." Her raven-feather-like long lashes trembled. She looked up, as if afraid he wouldn't believe her, and answered while looking directly into his eyes, "Grandpa is still over there. If Grandpa asks me to go back, I might not be able to refuse right away."
"But I don't want to go back."
Her expression did not seem deceitful, nor was she being perfunctory.
Qin Jijing asked her why.
She hesitated for a moment, "I originally asked Jiang Cheng this to test his thoughts. In fact, I'd rather we both stay in China than him going abroad."
"I don't really like the environment abroad. I don't like feeling constrained, and I also know that Grandpa will still reject Jiang Cheng at heart."
"You have quite a few complaints about the old gentleman," he stated calmly.
Jiang Ni didn't argue; she just looked down and hummed in a muffled tone.
