Gu Tong's small face turned red in an instant, and her heart was in a flurry.
To try... or not to try...
This is a death sentence question...
"How's your relationship with her?"
Before Gu Tong could figure out how to answer, Li Yan's question echoed, interrupting her 'pure' thoughts.
The 'her' in his words, of course, didn't need further thinking and was undoubtedly Qiu Xue. But why would he ask that? Could it be he spotted some flaw...
"We lived close when we were young, grew up in the same Academy Courtyard, but after that, we didn't have much contact. She did come to me on the eve of our wedding."
Gu Tong didn't mention what Qiu Xue had said back then, nor the proposals like 'hidden marriage', 'indifference', 'probing'. Firstly, considering it wouldn't benefit their relationship, and secondly, she didn't know their real relationship now.
