Bab 339: Powerlessness

After finishing her meal, Gu Dai first dropped Auntie Zhen off at the hotel.

Before Gu Dai could drive away, Song Ling hurried out of his car and grabbed her, speaking in a serious tone, "Let's talk."

Gu Dai pulled her hand back, replying indifferently, "I don't think there's anything to discuss between us."

Ignoring her response, Song Ling continued, "I saw your Suzhou Embroidery work."

Gu Dai, unimpressed by his praise, simply responded with a casual "Oh" and proceeded to get into her car.

Blocking her way, Song Ling stood in front of her, not letting her open the car door, "I was injured saving you that day, sustaining many cuts on my arm."

He added, "It hurts quite a bit."

Gu Dai looked at him, and after a moment, said gently, "I'm thankful you saved me, but as I recall, your injuries weren't serious. It's been two days; they should be healing."
