Li Peifeng had already lost hope in the effect of the aura.
Perhaps it had some effect? Would Zhao Qingge's attitude be worse without it?
He could only console himself this way and ignore the aura, trying to explain the cohabitation issue raised by Zhao Qingge according to his mental draft...
"The cohabitation started during the National Day holiday. At that time, Wu Wenyue's original apartment was sold by the landlord. She couldn't find a suitable place immediately, so she came to cohabit with me. The next day, somehow Xu Manning heard about it and wanted to move in with Wu Wenyue. They both lived in that side room and reconciled on the same day."
Starting cohabitation during the National Day holiday was particularly important because the teacher-student relationship hadn't yet evolved beyond its bounds. Li Peifeng felt it necessary to make this point clear, perhaps to reassure Old Zhao a bit.
"I see."
