She didn't know how much time had passed, but by the time Lin Chuxia tottered out of the study, she had decided that if she had to embarrass herself next time, so be it. Occasionally admitting defeat wasn't too bad, since she decided she would never do such thrilling things again.
Yes, thrilling.
Because she had been downstairs too long, Lin Xiaoran, who had been waiting for her on the rooftop, ran down to find her, and Fang Jiaxi, who had been practicing piano in her room, also came looking for her.
During that time, the study door was knocked on several times.
When Fang Jiaxi and Lin Xiaoran stood outside the study, discussing where she and Gu Yuheng might have gone, inside the study, she nearly lost her soul from nervousness.
Although she knew Lin Xiaoran and Fang Jiaxi couldn't come in, she was still panicked, worried that the door lock would suddenly break and her intimately close moment with Gu Yuheng would be seen by others.
