Chapter 94

She blinked, and her mind was still full of these messy thoughts when she heard him lightly say as he wiped his hand, “Apologies, I have obsessive-compulsive disorder.”

After a pause, his voice carried a somewhat teasing tone as he glanced at the foam that was still stuck in her hair and slowly said, “I can’t stand seeing dirty things.”

After he finished speaking, he threw the tissues into the faraway wastebasket.

The explanation seemed to be given to prevent her from misunderstanding.

She blinked a few times, then took a few tissues as well to clean up the foam on her temple. She looked up at the foam and she tried to change the subject, “So, that day, it was you…it was you that sent me back?”

Xie Xinglin faintly nodded.

Su Qiuge seemed to internally collapse as she continued to ask, “The password to my house, did I tell you after you sent me back?”

Xie Xinglin noticed how Su Qiuge’s face was darkening one moment and turning pale the next. He knew that she probably remembered a little of what happened that day, more or less.

Then Xie Xinglin slowly said, “Mhm, after all, you refused to cooperate and it’s not like I can chop off your finger to get it scanned.”

When he said this, the tone was light as a feather, but Su Qiuge actually felt taken aback. Afterward, her gaze fell on her own fingers as she felt that she was really blessed and lucky to still have ten healthy fingers.

Then Xie Xinglin continued at a pace that wasn’t fast or slow, “Another reason I directly came in is because I wanted to let you know that if you don’t feel reassured with me knowing your password, you can change it.”

Su Qiuge was silent for a moment before she finally opened her mouth to tentatively ask in an exasperatingly slow manner, “When I wasn’t clear-headed, I didn’t say or do anything, right?”

Xie Xinglin paused, then raised his eyes to directly look at her, “There were a lot, actually.”

He hung his jacket on the chair and unhurriedly said, “Should I give you a summary?”

“……”

Su Qiuge: “No need, no need.”

She already felt incredibly suffocated just by remembering the tiniest bit of it, she absolutely cannot become aware of it any more.

Absolutely cannot recall any more.

She explained in some words, “That……you have to know I wasn’t clear-headed, so what I said or did can’t be taken seriously.”

Xie Xinglin’s pitch-black eyes stared at her for a long time, then his lips curled, “Then why do you look like you have a guilty conscience?”

Su Qiuge knew that she shouldn’t discuss the events of that day any further with him. If she were to remember everything, she would be done for.

She deliberately changed the subject, “Weren’t you helping out at that place before, why did you change jobs again……”

When work was mentioned, Xie Xinglin pursed his lips and then indifferently said, “There are several, but all along, there hasn’t been a fixed one.”

When he spoke halfway, he raised his eyes and flatly said, “It’s merely that you happened to run into it all recently.”

She seemed to have previously heard from Han Ming that Xie Xinglin’s circle was quite large. When their family conditions were still really good, they already knew a lot of people. It’s likely that these all became channels of social connections.

She suddenly remembered what Han Ming had previously said, full of melancholy, “As Brother Xing’s friend, of course we want to help him, but this person has never been willing to accept a single cent that wasn’t his.”

So last time was also due to this reason……

Su Qiuge still wanted to ask something, but Xie Xinglin looked down at his watch, then raised his eyes to look up at her, “Student, it’s time for class.”

His manner of speaking was rather dull, but Su Qiuge still seemed to have heard some type of malicious intentions from within his tone.

Sure enough, in the next second, she heard him say word-by-word, “Jia Hesheng said that if you don’t listen or aren’t obedient, it’s okay to assign a few more papers.”

“Up to me to decide.”

Su Qiuge：“……”

Great.
