Zhuang Shuqing silently pursed her lips. Only after the crowd had dispersed did she make her way back to her seat, by which time Lin Xiaoxiao had already regained her composure.
"Shuqing, you're back," she said with poorly concealed joy. "Was it Jinyang who called you over just now?"
"Mhm."
Zhuang Shuqing didn't hide anything, since she was sure Mr. Gu would have said goodbye to them before leaving. Plus, there was no need to lie in front of Lin Xiaoxiao.
"So... have you two made up?"
Zhuang Shuqing glanced at her indifferently and sat down, nonchalantly saying, "Don't couples always make up at the bed's end after arguing at the bed's head?"
Lin Xiaoxiao's face stiffened and she laughed awkwardly twice. "Is... is that so? That's good then."
As an adult, how could she not understand the implication behind Zhuang Shuqing's words?
She pursed her lips and buried herself in work.
Without a word from Lin Xiaoxiao, Zhuang Shuqing naturally didn't initiate any conversation either.
