Gu Mei was taken aback.
All her passion for Qi Shaoze vanished.
Anger.
She really wanted to slap Qi Shaoze twice.
He pushed her away?
Pushed her away?
How was she inferior to Gu Qingcheng?
He was so nervous about Gu Qingcheng that he pushed her away.
She threw herself at him, yet he rejected her and instead pursued Gu Qingcheng, who didn't want him. How despicable!
Endure.
She endured!
"You misunderstand," she said, heart exploding with anger but face showing weakness as she looked at Qi Shaoze, "How could I wish for my own sister's death? I told you, I've already brought a doctor to examine her."
Before Qi Shaoze could speak, she continued, "Shaoze, I know you care about my sister, but please calm down. Your anxiety about my sister is unhelpful for our collaboration."
Chu He also tried to soothe Qi Shaoze, "Yes, please calm down, Qi Shaoze. The bigger picture is more important."
