Seeing his gentle expression towards Zhuo Ning made her jealous, and she resented her own lack of insight.
“Xiao Luo, let’s go,” Bin Zhengzheng stepped forward to rescue Luo Yaling. If this continued, she would get hurt. Better to take her away from this gloomy atmosphere, Bin Zhengzheng thought.

“But Miss Xiao…” Zhuo Ning hadn’t forgotten that Luo Yaling was still there.
