Looking at Lu Yilei who was pleading for Meng Rou, Zhong Nianyao spoke with a smile that was not quite a smile, "Lu Yilei, I'm actually curious. Do you really love Meng Rou that much? Do you even know what kind of person she is?"
"I know what kind of person Xiao Rou is better than you do." Lu Yilei firmly stood on Meng Rou's side, "This time, let's say I owe you a favor. No matter what she did wrong, I'll take the consequences for her."
"Take the consequences?" Zhong Nianyao let out a cold laugh, and continued, "She wanted my life. How do you plan to take responsibility for that? Are you going to exchange lives, using your life for hers?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked. All eyes were focused on Meng Rou, filled with disbelief as well as suspicion and surprise. Who could have imagined that the seemingly gentle and fragile Meng Rou could do such a thing?
Was this all a misunderstanding, or was it true that one shouldn't judge a book by its cover?
