About twenty minutes after Gu Shaojun and Xiao Man had departed, Bai Junfan also came into the living room. He politely said his goodbyes to Tang Qingshan, then hurriedly left the Tang Mansion without waiting for his two sisters.
His mind was in turmoil over one thing: Tang Manman knew Yang Liu'er! 'Why didn't anyone tell me?'
'If I'd known, I wouldn't have had that falling out with Gu Shaojun and wasted all that effort.'
He had doggedly ignored Manman's rejections in an attempt to maintain his ties with the Tang family and with her, all so he could see her often in the future. He thought he had the perfect cover, but he never imagined Xiao Man would see right through him—she'd even brought up his fiancée, Yang Liu'er. Even someone as thick-skinned as him couldn't take it anymore.
'And seeing Xiao Man snuggled so demurely beside Gu Shaojun, the two of them exchanging loving glances, just made him miss Yang Liu'er!'
