Qin Zhiyou had originally thought that Lu Weixi would pull off her usual trick again, by locking the doors from the inside. He was already prepared to spend the night in the study room.
Unexpectedly, when he pushed the door, it was not locked. He tiptoed in, and it was pitch black inside, clearly, Lu Weixi had already gone to bed.
He knew, although he was completely unaware of what happened this time, everything wrong that Liu Yiyi had done would be pinned onto him. After all, Liu Yiyi was his female companion, and she had been coddled by him.
Even though he'd truly never laid his hands on her, in the end, it was still his fault.
Lu Weixi was wronged, and he felt even more heartache for her.
Perhaps Lu Weixi had temporarily been pacified now, but he could feel that the relationship which had just started to mend had once again tightened. It was highly possible that for a long period of time, she would not grow close to him again.
