The Troubles of the Young Girl Lita
So you thought I didn't know that the main fuel for your anger was the fact that your nightlife had been disrupted?
Adults should learn to look for the cause in themselves. Would you have found a place without alcohol?
The tide had turned. Under Fu Qian's righteous, reproachful gaze, Lanaia could still feel the accusation, even though he said nothing.
"Neither place is very far. I'll take you there once we've finished eating."
But after years in a leadership position, she was clearly skilled at pretending not to understand. The next moment, she completely ignored the insinuation and said, perfectly seriously,
Hmph. I'll let this slide for the sake of the academy's reputation.
Professor Fu wasn't the sort to press his advantage once he'd made his point. Seeing that her temper had finally cooled, he didn't keep pushing and give the others a spectacle.
Including Jia Keke, the two onlookers were also considerate enough to keep their expressions neutral.
"The younger of the two, the one named Lita, didn't seem to be in a good mood. Is that because of you?"
Breakfast ended in a cheerful atmosphere, and before long, the three of them were on their way to the clinic.
As for Jia Keke, whose work schedule had been changed again and who'd been told she could head back and rest for now, she didn't seem to mind at all. If anything, she looked slightly relieved.
Given her earlier behavior, Fu Qian figured that, compared to making the trip for nothing, she was even less keen to discuss company secrets in front of a third party.
As for Lanaia, although her emotions had taken a beating along the way, she'd managed to hand the task back to the person involved.
