Perhaps, he should just stay in Pei Ge's office and not leave.
"Why should I lie to you? Go listen to what those girls are saying."
Qu Xiujie would definitely be suspicious if he said it like this. He had sharp eyes and noticed that the girls who had passed by him were speaking. Even though their words were not very clear, he could still hear Pei Ge's name.
"Why didn't I know?"
Although his friend was unwilling to believe it, Murong Cheng clearly heard those people saying that Qu Xiujie was daydreaming if he wanted to look for Pei Ge.
For the price that he had paid, he only managed to find out about Pei Ge's past. He did not manage to find out what had happened to her in those five years or what had happened during her time in America.
That was because when he investigated up to that point, Old Lady Qu happened to cut off all his sources of funds. If it were not for Murong Cheng taking him in, he would be like a homeless elderly man right now.
