Shen Ningning saw the redness in Mo Lingwei's eyes and knew he wasn't joking.
She had her secrets, and she already felt she had wronged Mo Lingwei deeply. However, she couldn't let him harm Lu Shaoyuan and his family.
They hadn't done anything wrong. Lu Shaoyuan had only agreed to the ridiculous fake engagement to help her.
Shen Ningning could only ignore the dejection deep in Mo Lingwei's eyes.
She took a deep breath, her voice purposefully calm. "Brother, I like Lu Shaoyuan. I don't want to see you harm him or his family. Otherwise, we can't even be friends anymore."
Mo Lingwei's eyes flew wide, and it felt as if a heavy hammer had struck his heart.
He searched Shen Ningning's eyes, as if trying to confirm whether she truly meant what she said.
Mo Lingwei's fists clenched and then relaxed, the tips of his long fingers trembling uncontrollably.
