When I tried to snatch the bag, he instead lifted it high up.
As I tiptoed to reach it, something wrapped in a plastic bag fell straight out of the open bag.
It hit the concrete floor, emitting a crisp metallic sound…
Gu Yuanzhou directly handed the bag to me, then bent over to pick it up.
After tearing off the plastic bag's wrapping, there was a gleaming fruit knife inside.
The air instantly solidified.
He glanced at the knife, then turned his head to look at me,
"You came to see me with a knife?"
"I, uh... do you need me to explain? Do you want to hear my explanation?"
I bit my lower lip, striving to make myself appear calmer.
I had initially thought Gu Yuanzhou would blow up in anger.
Unexpectedly, he gave me a deep look,
"Speak! I'll give you a chance to explain!"
"Uh... This is a fruit knife. Ding Yinuo has been in the hospital, and he has recovered a lot recently. He wanted to eat an apple. I was planning to buy this knife to peel apples for him at the hospital."
