Lu Yixue knew Xiao Mo all too well.
"Would you think I was taking advantage of you?"
Lu Yixue could not help asking.
Given the circumstances, it really did look that way.
It felt as though Lu Yixue was taking advantage of him.
It also seemed as though she was clinging to Xiao Mo because his career was now at its peak.
