"I didn't go anywhere," Xu Chaomu said weakly.
She walked toward the house with her backpack, not looking back, her whole being listless.
Old Cheng found it a bit odd. Had the girl been scolded by a teacher at school again? Impossible, her skin was so thick that it would be a stroke of luck not to have driven a teacher to tears.
As Xu Chaomu walked into the living room, she suddenly heard a burst of silvery laughter, like that of an oriole.
It was Bai Man.
How come she was at the Shen Family's house?
Xu Chaomu hesitated, wondering whether to go in or not. She stood at the door and soon heard Bai Man's conversation with Shen Chi.
"Do you think this dress is pretty?" Bai Man coquettishly asked Shen Chi.
"Hmm," Shen Chi seemed to hum in response.
"Ah, you didn't even look! Just take a glance, tell me, what's pretty about it?" Bai Man's voice was still sickly sweet.
"You look good in anything," Shen Chi replied indifferently.
