Lin Jiage was too choked up to speak for a long while before he managed to squeeze out some words: "That belongs to Liang Jiusi, it's not mine…"
Thinking back, it seemed like he had never explained himself so meekly to others before... But the main point was that he was speaking the truth, so why did he feel so unconfident?
Lin Jiage tried to keep himself composed before continuing, "... Just a few days ago, he came to my house and brought that over, and then forgot to take it with him when he left."
The red-faced Shi Yao replied with an "Mm" before falling silent. She had no idea what to say in a situation like this.
And to Lin Jiage, Shi Yao's response sounded like she didn't believe his words.
This left him feeling even less confident. While 'greeting' the eighteen generations of Liang Jiusi's ancestors, he turned to Shi Yao and explained himself, "I'm not interested in that woman in the manga."
