"As long as Amou accepts me, this is my home!" Xiao Ji said, looking at Su Hongxing. "Amou, you should say something fair."
Su Hongxing glanced at Xiao Ji, then at Ye Qilan, and in the end, decided to side with Xiao Ji.
She said to Ye Qilan, "This is Qingmu Garden. Xiao Ji isn't an outsider—there's no need to assign people to follow him, is there?"
What's the use of monitoring Xiao Ji? Isn't Ye Qilan just making a fuss over nothing?
"How is he not an outsider? Let's get this straight: I allowed Xiao Ji to stay at Qingmu Garden purely out of consideration for the fact that you once lived with the Xiao Family. I've already been incredibly generous by not kicking him out. Since I've let him stay, I have to keep a close watch on him, just to make sure he doesn't steal anything valuable from Qingmu Garden." Ye Qilan's words mercilessly left no room for Xiao Ji's dignity—they were downright venomous.
