"When I found you, you were lying by the pool, completely drenched and motionless. I was so afraid that you wouldn't wake up.
"I immediately went to look for someone else. When you were saved, I saw you looking at me with gratitude. Then, you asked if I saved you…" Shen Rou recalled what happened that night and cried even harder.
"We had fought, so I thought that you wouldn't be angry with me if I admitted it."
"So, you lied to me?"
Although he already knew that Shen Rou lied to him, Gong Zeli couldn't help but feel angry when she admitted it.
"Yes." Shen Rou wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and cried until her voice was hoarse. "I didn't think too much at that time. I just hoped that you could forgive me as soon as possible and not be angry with me anymore. The moment I nodded and saw the look in your eyes, I knew that you had forgiven me.
