"You lied to me again!" Qin Youbei accused angrily, her cat-like eyes wide with fury.
"Heh..." Gu Xiao chuckled, "I never said you couldn't go home. I'm someone who keeps his word…"
Qin Youbei was left speechless and deflated, only managing to weakly say, "I want to go home."
Gu Xiao made his point brief: "Then go."
He even gestured invitingly.
"You... cough, cough, cough..." Qin Youbei was so frustrated that she spoke too hastily and choked on her own saliva, her little face scrunching up with indignation.
With seeming kindness, Gu Xiao patted her back to help her catch her breath, "Take it easy, what's the rush? If you don't want to go back, I can graciously let you stay the night."
Qin Youbei snapped, "If you don't take me, I'll stick to you all night and make sure you can't get anything done."
"Really?" Gu Xiao looked incredulous.
"Of course it's true. I'll talk while you look at your documents; I'll watch videos while you sleep..."
"And what about when I take a bath?"
