"Pfft, what inside story could there be? The first thing is that you think it's fun to mess with me! The second thing is that you want us to die off the cliff!"
Gu Tian crossed her arms and laughed dismissively, looking Xun Ting up and down with utter disdain.
Even if she gets a demerit and can't graduate for the time being, so what? Anyway, her family has a company, and even if she's down on her luck, she can still inherit the property. But what about Xun Ting?
He's a penniless wretch; he'll probably only be able to rely on studying for the rest of his life.
Thinking about this, she couldn't help but feel a sense of superiority. Her starting point was an end point that Xun Ting could never reach in his entire life. That's how big the gap is between people.
"XT is me. I didn't tell you because I didn't want to reveal my identity. As for why I didn't go back to save you that day, it's because something unexpected happened to me."
Xun Ting offered a calm explanation, not taking Gu Tian's sarcasm to heart.
"Your explanation is just empty words. Why should I believe you?" Gu Tian sneered. You think you can convince me with just a few words? No way!
"Well, I've said what I needed to say. Whether you believe it or not is up to you," Xun Ting said nonchalantly.
She walked past her without hesitation.
Gu Tian stared at Xun Ting's back and unconsciously clenched her fists. Although she said she didn't trust him, she was still wavering. Xun Ting didn't seem like the kind of person who would lie.
...

Xun Ting returned home early today, and when she arrived at the villa, it was empty except for a few servants. The villain hadn't returned yet, and she suddenly really wanted to see him; she couldn't wait even an hour.
But she didn't know the company address. She had just taken out her phone to call the villain when she hesitated, worried that he might be at work at that moment.
After much hesitation, she finally called Gu Zhu.
The call was answered after only a couple of rings, and Gu Zhu's unusually enthusiastic voice came through the phone: "Hello, Madam, what can I do for you?"
"Where is the company address?" Xun Ting asked in a low voice, afraid that Gu Zhu was also busy.
"Young Madam, are you coming over?" Assistant Gu was a genius in emotional intelligence. He immediately understood that if she wasn't coming, she wouldn't have asked for the company address.
"Uh-huh."
"Then I'll go back and pick you up."
"No need, I can go by myself. Just send me the address." Xun Ting immediately refused. Gu Zhu had been following the villain day and night, so he must have a lot of work to do.
It would be very inappropriate to delay work because of picking her up at this time.
"Oh well."
"By the way, don't tell Master Huo, I want to give him a surprise."
"Yes, young mistress."
After hanging up the phone, a message quickly popped up on my phone, showing the company address. I went out and took a taxi there according to the address.
The distance to the villa is not far, only about ten minutes.
As soon as Xun Ting entered, she was stopped by the receptionist, who said unhappily, "Who are you? Why are you barging in like that? Do you know where you are?"
"I'm looking for Huo Lin. I'm his wife," Xun Ting said deliberately. It was the first time she had encountered such a receptionist, who was so arrogant and looked down on her.
The receptionist burst out laughing upon hearing her explanation. These days, there are all sorts of people, and they'll do anything to climb the social ladder. No matter how much someone wants to seduce Master Huo, they wouldn't dare tell such a lie.
This woman is truly shameless.
"Pfft, don't be ridiculous. Everyone in the world knows that Master Huo is single. Even if you're going to lie, at least make up something that's believable."
