Shao Ya had woken up as soon as Fang Yao started gossiping about her in her head. Listening to it all, she spat out a mouthful of blood.

Fang Yao's eager gaze roamed over her, naked curiosity shining in her eyes. It made Shao Ya's heart ache. Now she finally knew how it felt to be the subject of someone else's gossip.

Clutching her chest, Shao Ya curled up on the bed and silently shed tears.
