Shen Li's heart involuntarily tightened. Although the face was smiling gently, it made her unconsciously anxious.
Facing Han Mochen's gaze, she could only respond with a smile, trying to present herself as more dignified. It wasn't about saving face or maintaining her image, but that she felt she couldn't be impolite in front of Han Mochen.
There was no reason, she just couldn't.
After smiling, Shen Li immediately shifted her gaze away, not looking towards the gazebo at all. However, she could feel that Han Mochen's eyes seemed to follow her.
With a probing and measuring look, and seemingly a bit amused, he watched her continuously.
If he wanted to look, then let him look. She couldn't stop Han Mochen's scrutiny, she could only choose to ignore it.
"What happened?" Situ's voice came through.
He had been waiting outside for Shen Li, thinking she would come out by now, but instead, he got a call saying there was trouble inside.
