"Could it be... aren't you worried about what might have happened between me and Gu Huai'an during the time we were together?"
"..." Lu Yebai fell silent for a while before shaking his head, "I don't care about those things. I just want you, as long as you stay by my side."
A slow relaxation washed over Meng Xi'er's expression. She lifted her arms and wrapped them around Lu Yebai's neck, "Nothing happened."
"Hmm?"
"He never did anything to me." She kissed his face.
Lu Yebai was stunned for a moment, before hugging her tightly, "You've been wronged."
During that time, he had been so caught up in his own displeasure that he had also forgotten the risks she faced by staying with Gu Huai'an.
Meng Xi'er gave him a deep look, then gently rested her face against his chest.
Talking it out made things better.
Some things, if kept bottled up inside forever, might never be resolved.
