Gu Jiaojiao didn't want to argue, but Zhou Mei refused to let it go. "Jiaojiao, why are you two back so late?"
Seeing how persistent Zhou Mei was, Gu Jiaojiao could only reply, "Shu Ci and I went shopping and ran into a friend of his. We had a meal together, and then his friend gave us some local specialties, so we got back a bit late."
After speaking, Gu Jiaojiao gave Zhou Mei a meaningful look and started pushing the wheelchair straight toward her own front door.
With a hurt and aggrieved expression, Zhou Mei looked at Su Shuochi and said, "Brother Su, I don't think I did anything to offend Jiaojiao, did I?"
"Jiaojiao and I don't even know you. How could we have possibly offended you?" Su Shuochi didn't even spare her a glance.
Zhou Mei's lips moved, but she couldn't utter a single word. She could only watch helplessly as Su Shuochi went inside.
Only then did she drop her pitiful, aggrieved act, the corners of her lips twisting into a vicious smirk.
