Liu Yao left, saying she needed to go and prepare something, while Gu Fan watched her go, seeming somewhat reluctant to part.
Gu Ling cast a dubious glance, "Brother, are you really that reluctant to let Sister Liu Yao go? From the looks of it, you're inviting her to live with us. It's already a big compromise having Sister Lin Xi. If you bring in another one, aren't you afraid of stirring up trouble at home?"
"No worries, I'm just testing a theory," Gu Fan laughed it off.
Gu Ling was still curious, "So, you've decided just like that without consulting Sister Su? Don't you know there were past issues between Sister Liu Yao and Sister Su? And what theory are you testing?"
"Want to know, huh?" Gu Fan cast a meaningful glance at Gu Ling, then said, "Xiaoling, you used to complain that we didn't tell you anything. Now that we do, what's your response?"
"My response? What response?" Gu Ling wore an expression of confusion, as if she didn't understand what Gu Fan was saying.
