Hua Lifang said what she had planned to say, turning herself into a victim.
As long as she was a victim, Ling Yiran's incident was not her fault. Ling Yiran was just unfortunate.
"Is everything you're telling me now the truth?" asked Gu Lichen as he stared at the person in front of him.
Hua Lifang immediately said, "Of course. Why would I lie to you, Lichen? You know what? The more I thought about it later, the more scared I became. If I had entered the lounge, and since I'm not as smart as Yiran, then I'd... have gotten myself into a scandal in Shen City and be laughed at by now!"
She wanted to throw herself into his arms and seek comfort as she spoke.
However, Gu Lichen pushed Hua Lifang out of his arms. "Lifang, I've told you that I only regard you as my childhood savior, so don't do anything inappropriate or say something inappropriate in case you mislead others."
Hua Lifang's expression immediately changed at that, and she bit her lower lip hard.
"Also, I hope you're telling the truth today. The police have started investigating this, and it won't be long before they have the results," said Gu Lichen.
Hua Lifang forced a smile. "Yes, I also hope... they'll have the results soon so that I'll know who's trying to hurt me!"
However, her heart was beating wildly and uncontrollably. It was almost as if it were about to burst out of her throat. Fear was welled up inside her.
'What if... they find out? What do I do then?'
Ling Yiran broke into a smile. "If you’re accompanying me here today, don't you need to accompany Bai Tingxin?"
"He has gone back to the Bai family’s house to deal with some things! He won't be in Shen City recently," said Qin Lianyi before blushing suddenly. She seemed like she was about to say something but stopped.
"What's the matter?" asked Ling Yiran.
"Well... Yiran, if I say I'm going to marry Bai Tingxin in three months and want you to be my maid of honor, will... Will you do it?" Qin Lianyi was in a dilemma when she said this.
After all, it would be the event of her life in three months, and she wanted her best friend to be her maid of honor. It was also a deal they had made when they were students. Whoever got married first, the other one would be the maid of honor.
