Chapter 231: Where Did You Get That Hickey?
The two sat by the window in the corner, undisturbed by anyone.
Song Xiaozhi’s eyes were red, her voice barely audible, slowly recounting her past with Li Minghao.
When she finished, Song Xiaozhi suddenly transformed from her earlier despondency, her long, slanting eyes glancing at Gu Tiantian, smiling brightly.
"Tian Tian, am I foolish?"
Gu Tiantian wanted to nod, but for some reason, she just couldn’t bring herself to do it.
Even though she had never been in love, she’d heard that when someone truly falls in love, even the smartest person can act foolishly.
But that foolishness is reserved only for the person they love deep down.
The reason Song Xiaozhi appeared foolish is that she loved Li Minghao to the bone.
Otherwise... she should have woken up when she noticed signs of his infidelity two years ago.
Yet, not only did Song Xiaozhi not wake up, she fell deeper and deeper.
Lightly holding Song Xiaozhi’s hand, Gu Tiantian wanted to comfort her, but as the words came to her lips, she realized it might be better to say nothing at all.
Because, she couldn’t do it!
She wanted to tell Song Xiaozhi, "Xiao Zhi, even if you get heartbroken, you still have me, I’ll be there for you!"
However, she didn’t forget about Bai Chenyao!
With Bai Chenyao’s personality, he would never agree!
Even when she went to see her grandmother, Bai Chenyao’s attitude was unpredictable.
Moreover, even if she could accompany Xiao Zhi like she could now, at best she could be there temporarily. It was a knot in the heart that Xiao Zhi had to untangle herself.
Gu Tiantian felt a headache coming on and reached up to rub her forehead.
No matter how thick summer clothes are, they’re just a thin layer.
Plus, if it’s not short sleeves, it’s a dress. Gu Tiantian wore a long-sleeve chiffon blouse to cover the marks Bai Chenyao left on her arm.
But as she raised her arm, the glaring "strawberries" on her white and tender arm were exposed.
Coincidentally, Song Xiaozhi, who was staring at the dessert, looked up and saw the flash of red on the smooth arm.
Song Xiaozhi paused, the spoon trembling slightly in her hand and it fell into the coffee cup.
"Xiao Zhi, what’s wrong?"
Noticing Song Xiaozhi’s eyes fixed intently on her arm, Gu Tiantian frowned.
She put down the dessert in her hand and raised her hand to look, but didn’t notice anything.
"What’s wrong? Is there something?"
A hint of bewilderment flashed in Song Xiaozhi’s eyes, then she stood up, hands on her hips.
"Gu Tiantian, confess for leniency and resist for severity!"
Gu Tiantian was startled by Song Xiaozhi’s sudden actions and words and quickly stood up.
Fortunately, the restaurant wasn’t crowded; although Song Xiaozhi’s voice was loud, it was unlikely anyone noticed their side from afar.
"Xiao Zhi, what are you doing!"
Her eyes shifted from Gu Tiantian’s arm to her face, staring into her eyes as Song Xiaozhi gritted her teeth.
"Gu Tiantian, do you still consider me your friend?"
Gu Tiantian was even more confused!
How could she not see Song Xiaozhi as a friend, what was that supposed to mean!
"Song Xiaozhi, are you starting again"
"Gu Tiantian, tell me, where did that hickey come from?"
"And don’t tell me it came from accidentally brushing against something; I’m experienced, and though Li Minghao and I didn’t go that far, this hickey stuff..."
Suddenly, a hint of embarrassment flashed in Song Xiaozhi’s eyes as she glared at Gu Tiantian, her expression turning fierce.
"Quick, confess honestly! Otherwise... I’ll definitely cut ties with you!"
Gu Tiantian: ...
She quickly glanced at her arm and this time, she saw it clearly.
There was a red mark on the underside of her arm.
Looking closely, you could even make out its shape.
That... was definitely lip-shaped!
