"I mean... after Judy left the ball, did you look for her?"
Having asked this question, Xicheng's gaze landed nervously on Gai Yu's face, holding his breath.
Ever since he was young, his sister had been the epitome of perfection in his eyes.
She was smart, capable, beautiful, kind... perfect in every way!
This was the first time in his life that he harbored such doubts about her.
Xicheng couldn't even imagine how to continue if Gai Yu denied it...
"I did call her, I simply wanted to have a proper talk with her," Gai Yu said, frowning slightly and looking at her brother apologetically, "I shouldn't have kept this from you..."
The tightly strung chord in Xicheng finally relaxed. Stepping forward, he extended his arms, gently embracing her, and his entire body relaxed.
"It's okay, I understand, I know you're doing this for me, I didn't mean anything else."
His sister hadn't lied to him; she must want to uncover the truth just as he did. How could she possibly be the instigator?
