Ji Yao remained silent, avoiding Ji Yebai's icy gaze.
"The trust I have in you is no less than the trust I have in Brother Yemo," Ji Yebai said with a mocking smile, "but what have you done with my trust? Hmm?"
Ji Yao knew that Ji Yebai must have found out about the things he had done.
Knowing that defending himself was futile, he wore an expression as if resigning himself to fate, "Young Master, one day, you will understand my good intentions. You are a favored child of heaven, destined to be outstanding, someone who could become a king! Miss Ning will only hold you back. Before you were together with her, you had no weaknesses! But now, you do, and it's a fatal weakness! Being with her is nothing but harmful to you..."
"Ji Yao! Put away your presumptions!" Ji Yebai interrupted his long speech, his lips curling with a cold curvature, "I don't want to become a king. Between becoming a king and being with Xixi, I choose to be with Xixi. She is the most important to me."
