Hiding It from Pei Jingzhou

Li Xiwu looked around. There was no one else.

Pei Jingzhou was still waiting for her outside. Her rationality reminded her that she should end the call with Gu Lanshi now. Go out and find a chance to tell Pei Jingzhou that Gu Lanshi had called.

But…

Li Xiwu took a deep breath and lowered her voice. "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Gu Lanshi could hear the nervousness in Li Xiwu's tone. "I want to meet you alone."

Li Xiwu replied bluntly, "I don't want to see you."

Gu Lanshi asked her, "Are you worried that something like what happened last time will happen again? Last time, I was bewitched by Yu Hewei, so I did such an irrational thing. Now, I can promise you that what happened last time will never happen again."

Li Xiwu smiled when she heard this. "Are you shirking responsibility? Does Yu Hewei know that you sold her in front of me?"

There was silence on the other end of the line.
