Qiao Leling, "I know."
"You know?" Sang Qian looked surprised. If you knew, why do you act as if nothing had happened?
"Mhm." Qiao Leling looked at herself in the mirror, turning it this way and that, assuring everything was perfect before snapping the compact shut and slipping it into her bag. Then she turned to Sang Qian and said, "I asked Shijing about this matter."
"What did he say?"
"He didn't say anything."
"Not a single explanation?"
"He would never explain. Haven't you heard the saying, 'To explain is to cover up, to cover up is to reveal the truth'? Since he said nothing, I believe him all the more."
Sang Qian, "..." Okay, she was the shallow one.
"Besides, I trust you too. You're already married. You couldn't possibly still have anything going on with Shijing, right?"
Sang Qian, "..." Yes, I do. I'm sorry, I've betrayed your trust.
"Moreover, Shijing is acquainted with your husband. How could he possibly have any inappropriate involvement with a friend's wife?"
