Mu Yiliang looked at him sharply: "You sided with him?"
"...Mu, I'm not..."
"You sided with him?"
Faced with Mu Yiliang's sharp questioning, Jason finally deflated: "If you insist on putting it that way, then, fine, yes, I sort of half-sided with him, but I can withdraw at any time, you needn't worry!"
Mu Yiliang bit her lip and said softly: "Jason, we've dealt with these gang leaders for so many years. Do you not know their ways? You think you can withdraw at any time, but they may not give you that chance! I don't understand how you could still do this?"
Jason's expression turned icy: "Although Qiao Yebai is ruthless, he's straightforward. Since he agreed not to force me, he certainly won't go back on his word!"
"...Even if he's reliable, why on earth would you get involved with these people?"
"I just don't want us to be easily manipulated like before!" Jason looked sullen, the last incident clearly cast a shadow over him, "I have to make myself stronger!"
