Despite Gu Shaojun's obvious reluctance and disdain, Xia Qingting still came looking for Xiao Man bright and early the next morning. Gu Shaojun hadn't left for the day yet and was in the middle of enjoying his fiancée's attentive care. As Xiao Man helped him put on his jacket and straighten his appearance, he took the opportunity to sneak in some kisses and hugs. But then he heard Xiao Yu call out from outside that Xia Qingting had arrived, and his face instantly darkened.
Xiao Man hadn't planned on letting Xia Qingting into the bedroom, fearing the innocent girl wouldn't be able to handle the discovery that she and her fiancé were sharing a bed. But Gu Shaojun threw the door wide open and walked out, saying to Xia Qingting, "Xiao Man's inside. She can't go out today, so you two can just talk in here."
"Why can't she go out? I came to take her to my place for lunch. Is that not okay either?" Xia Qingting pressed. Gu Shaojun didn't answer her and simply walked out.
