If Zhang Lili was allowed to just run off like this, Li Zhi would never be able to clear his name. People would definitely assume he had done something to her. He was a man, after all, and many people were quick to assume that men take advantage of women.
Besides, after causing such a scene, did they think they could just run away before anything was settled? 'Not a chance.'
Without a second thought, Gu'er grabbed Zhang Lili's wrist. "Hold on." She knew that if she didn't physically stop her and just called out, Zhang Lili definitely wouldn't stop.
With her wrist caught in Gu'er's grasp, Zhang Lili couldn't run even if she wanted to. She had no choice but to stop. She understood Gu'er had seen through her intentions, but she wasn't the least bit embarrassed. Instead, she looked at Gu'er with reddened eyes, putting on a pitiful expression that would make anyone's heart ache.
However, Gu'er wasn't a man and felt no sympathy for her.
