Having said his piece, Fang Zhi turned and rushed away frantically, as if he were being chased by a ferocious tiger.
Lin Shu did not try to stop him. She just quietly watched him leaving, standing dazedly until Su Jin snapped her out of her stupor with a click of her fingers.
"Told you so, your husband came looking for you." Su Jin joked, "You are already a radiant beauty. Your husband will surely cherish you. How could he let you leave so casually after you've been together for so many years?"
Lin Shu didn't want to pick up the thread of her conversation. All she said was, "Didn't you see? He's gone."
"But it was clearly you who drove him away." Su Jin spoke in disagreement, "I don't know what you were thinking. He ran away in a panic for fear of hearing something that could hurt the relationship. Otherwise, he definitely would have taken you home today."
Seeing that Su Jin still wanted to speak, Lin Shu stepped out and left with the bulk of the group.
