Mu Li muttered under her breath as she eyed the phone with contempt.

She rubbed her hair as she spoke.

"Xuxu, I really didn't call him." Mu Li spluttered as she explained, "He…"

Xuxu interjected, "Trying to explain means you are hiding something. You can't be trusted at all. How could our bond be so fragile?"
