Gu Nianzhi grew silent. She knew exactly what it felt like, so she decided not to make any comments about the situation for now.
Song Jinning peered curiously at the Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng's exchange, but she recognized the familiar name, "Bai Jinyi," through the fog of confusion and blurted out, "Jinyi is my classmate; she's bright and capable. She also can work very hard!"
Gu Nianzhi looked at Huo Shaoheng and raised her brow while mouthing, "Really?"
Huo Shaoheng was quiet as he sat on the sofa and gave an noncommittal look. Gu Nianzhi knew he always made this expression when he didn't want to admit to something he also couldn't deny.
"Got it." The corners of Gu Nianzhi's red lips raised as she smirked and sent a knowing look at him.
