"Of course I have to save her!" Xu Luo said, his voice ringing with conviction. "Qianqian is my friend, and she's your friend too. If I just stood by and let her die, you'd all look down on me!"
Huangfu Shishi had intended to tease Xu Luo, but she hadn't expected him to sound so self-righteous and noble.
Besides... he did have a point. Even though she knew deep down that wasn't the whole story, she found she had no grounds to argue.
"Hmph!" Huangfu Shishi rolled her eyes and gave a cold snort. Deciding not to bother with Xu Luo, she turned to Chu Xiaoya and started whispering with her.
Chu Xiaoya was breathtakingly beautiful and came from a prominent family. Her legendary experiences and worldliness were beyond compare to Huangfu Shishi and the others. As such, she had won everyone's affection not long after arriving at the Xu Family estate. She had grown especially close with Lianyi, Huangfu Shishi, and Phoenix, becoming like sisters.
