Hearing those words gave me something of a headache too. I checked the online news, and it was flooded with photos of Gu Tingshen and me kissing, along with all sorts of speculation.
"Sister Su, it was just an accident, I'll handle it properly," I reassured her, Sister Su didn't say much more, just softly reminded me, "Cheng Yu is no soft-hearted guy, it'd be better for you not to provoke him."
I knew what Sister Su meant. Cheng Yu had become another Zhao Jihui. If I offended Cheng Yu at this time, I'd be basically roasting myself on an open flame.
After hanging up, I gathered myself and went downstairs. The villa was only staffed with servants; Cheng Yu had long disappeared without a trace.
I ate wearily, my legs feeling soft and sore as I descended the stairs. It took a day or two of rest at home before I started to recover.
