”Then tell me the truth. Is that Liang guy interested in you?”
”Even if he had meant it, I wouldn't have meant it either. As you know, I am the one who hates money the most. I would never fall for him. ”
Hearing how determined Tao Zi was, Sang Geya also did not hesitate anymore. She whispered, ”Hey, I'm going to tell you a secret.”
”What secret?” Tao Zi burst with curiosity and went over to ask.
Just as Sang Geya was about to speak, she suddenly turned her ears, as if she was listening for something outside.
Seeing Sang Geya's mysterious look, Tao Zi felt even weirder. Just as she was about to ask what was going on, she immediately pressed her finger to her lips, signalling him not to make a sound.
There really was something going on outside, as if someone was opening the door, the old wood door creaked, and although it wasn't loud, Tao Zi could hear it clearly.
Sang Geya and Tao Zi went over to the window and only lifted a corner of the curtain. Under the moonlight, they saw Shangguan Toong, who lived in the same room as Lv Rong, tiptoeing towards the courtyard entrance.
”What's wrong with Toong? She's not sleepwalking, is she? ” Tao Zi was stunned and could not help but ask Sang Geya who was beside him.
”You're the one sleepwalking!” Sang Geya whispered, ”Don't talk, be careful she might hear you.”
Shangguan Toong who was outside had already reached the main entrance, she turned and sneakily glanced behind him, then carefully opened the door and walked out.
”What is she doing? You're not sleeping in the middle of the night? ” The alley outside was so dark, there were no street lights, and Shangguan Toong was not afraid that something would happen.
Sang Geya laughed disdainfully: ”Why don't we go out and take a look?”
Then, Sang Geya lifted off her blanket, put on her clothes, got off the bed and walked around with her slippers on, then said to Tao Zi who was still in a daze: ”What are you waiting for, let's go?”
”...”
The two sisters did not turn on the lights as they tiptoed out the door. The alley outside was so dark that not even their fingers could be seen. Only Hu Tong's mouth was covered in the dim light.
Sang Geya held Tao Zi's hand and walked to the front of Hu Tong's mouth. The two of them acted like they were spies and peeked at the corner of the wall to look outside.
The scene that appeared before Tao Zi's eyes truly dumbfounded him.
Under the street lamp, Shangguan Toong hugged a man tightly and unemotionally kissed the man's lips.
And that man was none other than Ai Ken who came to look for Tao Zi last night.
