"Err... I--I-- h-heard it from Long Yue! Yes, h--he told me about it b-be--before."
Mu Lingxi said while stuttering. She had a sudden slip of a tongue at that split moment and so she had no choice but to made up an on the spot lie.
Pushing the blame under Long Yue's name.
"Me??? I told you about it????"
Long Yue was obviously stunned when he heard Su Yan shifting the blame to him. To be honest, he doesn't have any recollection of talking to Su Yan anything about it.
"Yes, of course. Whom should I learn about it if not from you???"
"Oh, well. You got a point there... It is just that---"
"You really told Su Yan about it????"
"Err... Brother, honestly I'm not too sure about it either since I can't recall doing it at all. But if Su Yan knows about it... Then I think, I probably.... really did. I'm sorry."
