He flapped his hands in front of his face, criss crossing them again and again in a panic. "Not in that way! We were practising martial arts late into the night. It must have been someone else..."

Mo Cheng disregarded the outburst from her, still staring at Li Meirong intently. It was painfully obvious that he was reigning in his embarrassment. "I'm simply stating the facts."
