Lu Ting's heart was beating fast, and she lowered her eyes to simply admit, "I'm sorry, I lied. The project has nothing to do with me."
Lu Jingzhi had thought that Lu Ting would argue, but unexpectedly she admitted it so straightforwardly, which made him feel a bit better inside—it meant she wasn't continuing to play him.

Lu Jingzhi's tone was very strong, "Was this matter so important that you had to lie? Whether you can help the family or not, we wouldn't say anything. You are still young and shouldn't meddle in family matters."
"I didn't intend to lie at first. That day I called my classmate, and he told me the matter was settled, and then when I called again, he told me it wasn't him who settled it."
