"Oh, are you threatening me?" Zhong Niangyao's smile remained unchanged. "If so, there's no need to continue, I already understand."
"Lady Zhong, that's not what I meant," Kong Fangming's face changed slightly. "But don't you think you've gone a bit too far? Although what my bodyguard did was inappropriate, weren't your actions a bit too ruthless?"
"So, Mr. Kong, you've come today to stand up for your bodyguard?" Zhong Niangyao deliberately misconstrued Kong Fangming's words. "However, I think I've been quite merciful! I didn't even take his life, how can I be considered ruthless?"
She naturally understood that what Kong Fangming was really talking about were his own troubles and not the matter with the bodyguard. But since the other party was unwilling to clarify, she felt even less need to guess and ponder deeply.
