"I..."
Chen Jue hadn't expected Su Qiao to have been serious at the time and grew anxious. She was just about to speak.
Su Qiao had already patted her on the shoulder and laughed heartily. "No need to thank me. What kind of relationship do we have?"
"We're both from the same town. From elementary school through high school, even university—we went to the same school.
"We've known each other for so many years. I was only helping you sound him out. It's no big deal."

"Luckily, I wasn't wearing pajamas when I came out today. Otherwise..."
