"No, don't talk nonsense." Xiao Zhu hurriedly said, "I just rented Brother Shen's house to live in, and now that my hand is healed, I am moving out."
Seeing Xiao Zhu so eager to explain, clearly worrying that Zhang Liangping might misunderstand, Shen Ming felt extremely annoyed. However, he couldn't tarnish the young girl's reputation and coldly said to Zhang Liangping, "Do you think I'm like you, harboring ill intentions even before getting married?"
Zhang Liangping's face turned pale from being rebuffed, "I...I did it out of affection, I truly like Xiao Zhu."
After finishing his words, he looked towards Xiao Zhu standing behind Shen Ming, "Xiao Zhu, I am sorry about yesterday, I took leave today especially to come and apologize to you, can you forgive me?"
Shen Ming turned to look at Xiao Zhu.
Xiao Zhu, upon meeting Shen Ming's gaze, immediately lowered her head and softly said, "I'm not mad at you."
