Not wanting to engage too deeply with Lou Yan or become mere acquaintances with her, Qin Youbei gave her a faint smile and prepared to leave.
But she was stopped by Lou Yan's call, "Sister Qin, where are you headed?"
"To find Gu Xiao," Qin Youbei didn't look back, continuing forward.
"Oh," Lou Yan realized with an expression of enlightenment, and added from behind, "Are you going to explain to Brother Gu?"
Explain what? Qin Youbei was puzzled. She paused, turned to look at Lou Yan, and waited for her to continue.
Lou Yan exclaimed in alarm, "Of course, it's about Mengmeng's incident! Sister Qin, I knew you wouldn't kill anyone. I've always said I believe you, and sure enough, now that the murderer has been found, but Brother Gu... at that time, I even told him you weren't the culprit, but he was still very angry. However, he also said that no matter if it was you or not, you wouldn't be the final perpetrator."
