Now That Was Awkward (4)

Huo Mian looked at Gao Ran and Zhu Lingling with puppy-dog eyes, but they both remained silent.

What happened to brotherhood? And friendship?

"Um… girl, I think you'll be fine, haha. If we help you, we might overcomplicate things,"

Zhu Lingling laughed.

"Screw you… you're shirking from responsibility…" Huo Mian felt like crying.

"Huo Mian, I think Lingling has a point. You don't have to be scared, you're Qin Chu's pressure point… You're the only person in this world who can rein him in. So, don't worry, just go…" Gao Ran said as he waved goodbye at Huo Mian.

"Gao Ran… way to burn your bridges, I took Lingling's place to help you guys, you can't refuse to help me…" Huo Mian said, pitiful as ever.
