Gu Anjin tugged at the clothes on her body and sat down a little distance away from him. "You can go now."
Yue Siqing took a few strides toward her, his overwhelming presence making it clear he had no intention of letting her off.
"Weren't you about to get rough with me?"
Gu Anjin pressed her lips together, clutching her clothes. "I'm not joking. Go out. What I said just now was only because I didn't want him to get the wrong idea. But Yue Siqing, my stance hasn't changed. Don't treat me like I'm the old me anymore. I don't want to cling to you either. You think it's unsafe for me out there, fine, I can come back. But you can't keep me under soft house arrest. I've already spoken to the school. I'm going back to class tomorrow."
Emotions churned in Yue Siqing's chest; her cold and steady words landed like a heavy blow.
