Xiao Yu really hadn't mentioned it to Gong Ting. Firstly, she felt her own matters didn't need to be shared with others, and secondly, she felt her relationship with Gong Ting hadn't become close enough to discuss such things.
She said, "I thought you had already investigated me."
Generally, a man of Gong Ting's status would not randomly pick a pleasant-looking woman on the street and keep her as a mistress; he would definitely investigate her family history thoroughly.
Gong Ting pressed his lips together, only then realizing he hadn't investigated her at all.
"Do you really think I'm so idle as to investigate people without any reward?"
Xiao Yu: "..."
Since when had he become so petty? However, upon hearing he hadn't investigated her, she felt inexplicably comforted. She said, "Actually, I'm not exactly an orphan; it's just my parents died early and left me some money."
