Chapter 522: Complete Exposure Luo Liang didn't even look at the living room, and didn't even take off the coat that was stained with cold air. He walked straight through the living room and went to the kitchen.
The clattering sound of high heels on the floor was particularly harsh in the silent space, like a blunt knife scraping the hearts of the three women.
She walked to the head seat at the long dining table and sat down with one movement, her back straight, her hands folded on her knees, then slowly closed her eyes, without any sign of relaxation.
A sense of oppression emanated from his entire body, like an invisible net that instantly enveloped the entire apartment.
The chandelier in the kitchen emitted a cold white light, which fell on Luo Liang, making her already cold temperament even more distant.
Gu Ximan huddled at the door of the living room, her fingers tightly gripping the corner of her clothes, her nails almost digging into her flesh, her heart full of regret.
That sentence just now, “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t be back late?” was too annoying!
Christmas, couples’ date, Gu Luo didn’t go out with his girlfriend Luo Shuhe but brought his sister-in-law Luo Shuning with him... Putting all this information together, even a fool could see that something was wrong!
Although Gu Ximan usually has some thoughts and wants to stick to Gu Luo more, she definitely doesn't want to be the fuse that breaks this layer of window paper!
The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. Her shoulders trembled uncontrollably and even her breathing became very slow.
After an unknown amount of time, Luo Liang's eyelashes finally moved, and he slowly opened his eyes. His gaze swept over the three people huddled in the living room, and his voice was cold, as if it had been quenched with ice:
"Come here."
These three words were like an order, causing Gu Ximan's body to tremble violently.
She subconsciously looked at Luo Shuhe and Luo Shuling. Luo Shuhe's face remained calm, but he frowned slightly.
Luo Shuling looked innocent.
The three of them exchanged glances before Gu Ximan took the lead in moving her feet. As if the slow-motion button had been pressed, she moved towards the kitchen little by little. When she reached the dining table, she only dared to let her butt touch the chair halfway, her body still stretched straight. As soon as she sat down, she couldn't help but shiver.
Luo Shuhe and Luo Shuling also came over and sat down on the chairs next to her. Their backs were also straight, without any relaxation.
The atmosphere in the kitchen was even more depressing than before. Under the cold white light, no one dared to speak. All they could hear was each other's almost inaudible breathing.
Luo Liang's gaze fell on the wood grain of the dining table, and his fingers unconsciously stroked his cuffs, as if he was thinking about something, or as if he was brewing emotions.
After a while, she slowly raised her eyes, her gaze fixed precisely on Luo Shuhe. Her voice was still cold, but with a hint of inquiry:
"You know?"
Luo Shuhe met her gaze without any fluctuation in his expression, neither dodging nor panicking.
She knew that Luo Liang was asking about Gu Luo and Luo Shuning. There was no point in lying at this time. With her parents' abilities, as long as they wanted to investigate, they would soon know all the truth.
Thinking of this, Luo Shuhe nodded gently, his voice calm as if he was talking about something insignificant: "I know."
Luo Liang's eyes instantly turned colder, and his crossed hands tightened slightly.
She stared at Luo Shuhe, with a subtle hint of sharpness in her tone:
"You two broke up?"
"No."
Luo Shuhe continued to shake his head, his voice flat but with an unquestionable firmness.
She knew that this answer would make her father even more angry, but she didn't want to lie - the relationship between herself, Gu Luo, and Luo Shuning had never been defined by a "breakup", and there was no need to cover it up with lies.
"No?"
Luo Liang repeated the two words, with the ending tone rising slightly.
The temperature in the kitchen seemed to have dropped a few degrees. The cold white light fell on her face, making her expression look even more stern.
Gu Ximan shrank her neck and secretly glanced at Luo Liang. She saw that the corners of her mouth were pursed into a straight line, and the coldness in her eyes was almost overflowing. She was so scared that she quickly lowered her head and didn't even dare to breathe.
Lu Xuexue, who was watching the video, was also shocked. She listened blankly to the noise on the other side for a long time. It took her a long time to react. She quickly switched the screen and sent a message to Gu Luo.
