Xu Siyao's heart was in a chokehold.
That night, if it wasn't for the fact that she had drunk a little, she would not have walked into Li Ci's room so easily.
She didn't want to admit that she fell for Li Ci's charms. That made her look foolish and naive. In reality, she was never the type of woman to be easily fooled by men.
