"What's wrong?" Qian asked Shi Tou.
"Nothing... Qian, I—" Shi Touyu looked at Qian for help. She desperately wanted to tell Qian that she was feeling strange, always thinking about odd things. Only through pain could she find some sanity. She almost mentioned borrowing money. It was through sheer willpower and pinching herself that she managed to stay calm.
What's happening to her...
She had made up her mind before coming; no matter how hard it was, she wouldn't ask Qian for money. But why did staying by Qian's side feel like being bewitched?
This look made Qian feel uneasy. Shi Touyu definitely had something going on, just as Qian wanted to ask, her elder brother called.
The investigation results came in.
Qian glanced at Shi Touyu. She couldn't take the call in front of her, "Shi Tou, wait for me a minute. I'll be right back."
She stood up and went outside to take the call.
