He wanted to say that the notebook had been thrown into the trash can and was now too dirty to look at.
But Cheng Lie couldn't bring himself to say it.
Yun Shifei was so smart, she'd definitely figure it out, and maybe even start another conflict with the Cheng Family.
He was afraid Cheng Guomin would notice her.
Since he couldn't give it to her, he could only fabricate a lie and tell Yun Shifei that he accidentally lost the notebook.
"Really lost it?" Yun Shifei's voice was no longer as impatient as before; she was trying hard to calm herself.
She couldn't lose her temper with Cheng Lie, after all, Cheng Lie was rather special.
Cheng Lie heard her tone soften a bit and looked up at her.
The girl's eyes were red, looking aggrieved, as if she wanted to get angry but didn't know how.
In the end, she could only keep the anger to herself.
That pitiful look made Cheng Lie's heart ache a little.
She was considering him, so she didn't get angry, right?
