Shen Qiang lowered her head, her lips trembling as though she wanted to say something but couldn't find the words.
Pei Jingchuan, standing next to Jiang Yuzhu, coldly interjected, "Dare you ever do such a thing again?"
As if struck hard, Shen Qiang took a step back.
Jiang Yuzhu understood his intention with a sigh. Rather than disliking Shen Qiang, it was more accurate to say that he was overly protective of her, afraid that Shen Qiang would hurt her again.
Jiang Xianmei looked at Shen Qiang, her tone softened a bit.
"Shen Qiang, go home. I know there are many things you want to say, but this is not the right time. We'll talk when we get home."
Shen Qiang swallowed, raising her head, her gaze filled with deep remorse.
Her slightly trembling voice was tinged with a hint of unnoticeable fear.
"Sister, I…I am really sorry for my previous actions. I have no right, and don't dare to hope for your forgiveness, I only hope… you know that my remorse is sincere."
