Chapter 17: Chapter 17 She’s Just a Poor Little Thing

Yun Shifei turned her head to look at Cheng Lie.

Meeting those pitch-black, deep eyes.

Cold, harsh, sinister, with not a trace of light.

Was it Cheng Lie who just spoke?

"You told me not to meddle in other people’s business?" Yun Shifei couldn’t help but murmur as she repeated his words.
