"It was Zichen who lied to me. He said he was afraid to be alone and asked me to sleep with him in bed—just sleep, nothing more. But as soon as I lay down, he started to pull at my clothing. I was afraid to reject him, so..." Yan Xinyan explained, tears flowing even more fiercely as she became even more pitiful.
"Is that so, Gu Zichen?" Qiao Xiguan turned her gaze to him.
Gu Zichen's deep eyes flicked coldly, "What do you think?"
"Don't play tai chi with me!" Qiao Xiguan retorted fiercely, her tone commanding.
Was this the way Qiao Xiguan and Gu Zichen interacted with each other?!
Three years had been too long; had everyone become so forgetful?!
Wasn't Qiao Xiguan supposed to be very afraid of Gu Zichen, trembling in fear most of the time?
"No," Gu Zichen stated word by word.
Qiao Xiguan's eyes shifted, "So Yan Xinyan, when do you plan to stop lying?"
"Why should we take only the elder brother's word for it!" Yan Xintong complained dissatisfiedly.
