Hearing her interrogation, my mind went blank, and I hung my head, not knowing how to respond.
"Oh, it's just that my shoulders were really sore, so I had Little Tian give me a massage."
Aunt Wu was the first to recover, "Xinru, why haven't you gone to bed? Don't you have work tomorrow?"
"Oh... a massage."
Wang Xiru glanced at me, that meaningful look making me feel even worse.
Perhaps, this is what they mean by a thief's guilty conscience.
I could tell from her eyes that she still had some doubts about Aunt Wu's words.
It was probably because Aunt Wu and I had such a big age difference, it was impossible for us to be doing that sort of thing together, so she didn't pry further.
Plus, now that she had me, no one would associate me with Aunt Wu anymore.
"Nothing much, just got up for a drink of water," said Wang Xiru with a smile.
