A single sentence fell to the ground, and the atmosphere grew heavier.
Gu Tong's counterattack was executed perfectly, forcing Lie She to the utmost and clearly stating her stance!
That is, she was new to the Provincial City, an outsider! Not trusting anyone was the right choice.
Blindly trusting others would not fit the role she was playing, and such an outcome was not what she wanted at all.
Gu Tong's attitude was clear, though her words were calm, her unwavering stance was evident.
Lie She realized he'd overstepped, after all, this was not his business, and even probing required less extreme measures.
If he aroused others' suspicion, wouldn't he have fallen into his own trap, bringing trouble upon himself!
"Sister, don't think this way! I'm just worried you'll cause trouble, after all, the Provincial City is different from other areas. If something happens by accident, it won't be easy to handle!"
