Chu Qiaoqiao's face became even redder, a mix of shame and distress painting her features as she wished she could just find a crack to crawl into.
"I...I understand."
Lu Yubai said coldly, "You may leave, I will pretend that today's incident never happened."
Chu Qiaoqiao nodded vigorously, pulling open the balcony door and rushing out.
After she left, Lu Yubai lifted his hand to pinch the painful spot between his brows, easing the indifferent expression on his face.
As he was about to enter the room, his cell phone rang from his pocket.
He took it out and saw that it was a call from his mother, who had gone abroad for a trip around the world early on.
Lu Yubai let out a silent sigh and answered the phone: "Mom..."
"Yubai, did you think about what mom told you a few days ago?"
Before Lu Yubai could speak, the woman's voice on the other end chattered on.
