Song Ling’s face flushed with anger as she coldly said, “Men are supposed to dress like this.”

A smile appeared on Gu Dai’s face, yet it didn’t reach her eyes. “Are you selectively blind then? Can’t you see that women also dress like this when they soak in hot springs?”

Song Ling’s expression froze, his mouth opening but no words coming out.

Gu Dai continued, “Moreover, regardless of how I dress, it’s not a reason for you to criticize me. As for seducing someone, that’s because your own thoughts are improper. I suggest you immediately go to the hospital to check your brain.”

Turning to Su Ting, Song Ling coldly questioned, “Can you tolerate the person you like dressing like this?”

Su Ting remained composed. “What my Sis chooses to wear is her freedom.”

Gu Dai, not wanting to engage further with Song Ling, took Su Ting’s hand and led him into the hot spring room.

Watching the departing figures of Gu Dai and Su Ting, Song Ling’s eyes darkened even further, reflecting on the recent exchange and belatedly realizing something.

Zhou Ci, observing Song Ling’s gloomy return, instantly understood that he had been rebuffed by Gu Dai again, a situation he had grown accustomed to, hence not surprised.

“Zhou Ci, do you think there’s something wrong with my brain?” Song Ling asked.

Zhou Ci’s eyes sparkled as he gazed at Song Ling. Although he was used to Song Ling’s setbacks with Gu Dai, he didn’t expect this question.

He regretted not following Song Ling earlier to witness what had transpired at the corner.

Zhou Ci asked, “Why do you suddenly ask this?”

Without responding, Song Ling persisted, “Do you think there’s a problem with my brain?”

Zhou Ci internally nodded vigorously, but replied, “I know a few good neurologists. I can introduce you to them.”

Song Ling stared intently at Zhou Ci. “You mean there’s something wrong with my brain.”

Coughing lightly, Zhou Ci explained, “Not at all. I’m just saying I know some people. Of course, I think there’s nothing wrong with your brain, just that your EQmight be a bit lower compared to your IQ.”

Closing his eyes, Song Ling said, “Send me the doctor’s contact information.”

Zhou Ci hurriedly replied, “Okay.”

Then he quickly sending the details to Song Ling as if fearing he would change his mind about seeing the doctor.

Su Ting, tense, followed Gu Dai to the hot spring room. Recalling Song Ling’s words, he awkwardly said, “Sis, don’t be troubled because of my feelings. I won’t disturb you. You can pretend you don’t know. I just ask that you don’t ignore me in the future, I…”

Gu Dai pursed her lips, looking down, and assured, “I won’t ignore you. Don’t think about this anymore.”

“Okay,” Su Ting replied.

Shi Nuan, noticing Gu Dai’s return, felt something was off. “Daidai, what’s wrong? You seem angry.”

Nodding, Gu Dai replied, “Yeah, I just ran into Song Ling.”

Hearing this, Shi Nuan immediately stood up, ready to defend Gu Dai. “Tell me where Song Ling is. I’ll go and get revenge for you. Wait, I need to find some more people to help me. I might not be able to beat him alone.”

Gu Dai, hearing Shi Nuan’s words, felt her anger dissipate. Smiling, she said, “No need, Nuannuan. Let’s continue soaking in the hot spring. Don’t let him affect our mood.”

After the hot spring, Gu Dai and Su Ting returned home. Entering her bedroom, Gu Dai received a call from Su Ci.

Su Ci spoke, “Daidai, I’ve finished my work in the studio. Are you still at the hot spring villa?”

Apologizing, Gu Dai replied, “We’ve already finished and come home…”

Su Ci continued cheerfully, “No problem. Next time you go to the hot springs, I’ll join you.”

Gu Dai quickly agreed, then added, “It’s getting late now. You should rest too.”

“Good night,” Su Ci said.

Staring at the hung-up phone, Su Ci looked up at the moon, softly murmuring, “Missed it again.”

Leaving the hot springs, Zhou Ci, beside Song Ling, exclaimed, “This hot spring is really nice. We must come again when we have time, right Song Ling?”

Song Ling replied noncommittally, “Mhmm.”

Hearing “Song Ling,” Su Ci looked over, watching his car drive away before withdrawing his gaze.

He had investigated Song Ling, knowing he filled the gap in Gu Dai’s life for these three years..
