Gu Xiaonuan had the right to say no, but her phone had already been violently snatched away by Si Yuchen.
She wanted to find someone to ask for help, only to realize that Si Yuchen had brought her to an empty corridor.
There were not even any patients passing by in the corridor, so if Si Yuchen did anything to Gu Xiaonuan, probably nobody would know.
Gu Xijue was not surprised to receive a call from Si Yuchen; what was surprising was that Gu Xiaonuan was there, echoing him.
"Fine, the usual place."
The usual place mentioned by Si Yuchen was naturally the palace, although Gu Xijue had no fondness for it whatsoever.
Gu Xiaonuan didn't want to speak, but the way Si Yuchen kissed her left her breathless. She feared they might be discovered in the corridor, so she had to echo Si Yuchen, persuading Gu Xijue to agree to the appointment.
"Despicable and shameless."
Gu Xiaonuan managed to grab her phone back, but her brother had already hung up.
"The honor is mine."
