Chapter 196 Evidence
Xu Rou was sitting on the bed, chatting with Zhou Zeran.
Hearing the knock on the door, she hurriedly exited the chat window.
Thinking it was Gu Tingyu coming to see her, Xu Rou composed herself and immediately went to open the door.
As soon as she opened the door, Li Yan's cold and beautiful face came into her view.
Xu Rou's heart skipped a beat, and she wanted to close the door.
Fortunately, she still had some sense. She forced a smile and looked at Li Yan cautiously, asking, "Li Yan, is there something you need from me?"
Xu Rou knew that Li Yan disliked her, but she couldn't get anything good from Li Yan and didn't want to cause herself too much trouble.
Moreover, Li Yan knew too much about what she had done, so Xu Rou didn't dare to easily anger Li Yan.
Li Yan stared coldly at Xu Rou with her almond-shaped eyes.
She realized it was herself, a flash of shock crossed her eyes, followed by fear showing on her face.
Xu Rou avoided Li Yan's gaze, somewhat afraid to look at her.
Li Yan disliked Xu Rou and went straight to the point: "Xu Rou, I don't care what you want to do, I advise you to stay away from Gu Tingyu."
Xu Rou lowered her head, gently biting her lower lip, and said pitifully, "It was A-Yu who insisted on bringing me back..."
She then revealed her pitiful, innocent look.
Li Yan wasn't buying Xu Rou's act and sneered, "Don't try that on me. If anything happens to Gu Tingyu, I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"
Her last sentence, spoken slowly and deliberately, carried a threatening tone.
Xu Rou dared not speak, not even daring to breathe, standing timidly in front of Li Yan.
Seeing Xu Rou's cowardly expression, Li Yan abruptly withdrew her gaze and turned to leave.
Seeing Li Yan's figure leave, Xu Rou breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, watching Li Yan's departing figure, she clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her flesh.
She needed to remain calm and not reveal any weaknesses in front of Li Yan.
The next day.
As soon as Li Yan got out of bed, she saw Xu Rou and almost couldn't help but roll her eyes.
She glanced at Xu Rou with a mixture of speechlessness and displeasure: "How long do you plan to stay at Gu Tingyu's house?"
When Xu Rou faced Li Yan, she was terrified: "It was A Yu who asked me to come and stay here temporarily."
She brought up Gu Tingyu again, which provoked Li Yan.
Li Yan closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and suppressed her anger, not intending to have a direct confrontation with Xu Rou.
Now Gu Tingyu stood beside Xu Rou, his eyes fixed on the woman before him.
He even wanted to drive himself away for Xu Rou's sake.
Li Yan didn't say anything more to Xu Rou and went straight to the dining table.
Xu Rou has been staying at Gu Tingyu's house for the past few days, and the housekeeper makes three breakfasts every morning.
Although Li Yan disliked Xu Rou, she still restrained her displeasure in front of Gu Tingyu.
But Xu Rou ate timidly, as if Li Yan had bullied her.
Gu Tingyu thought so too, and unable to bear it any longer, he stared blankly at Li Yan and questioned, "Li Yan, did you scold Xu Rou while I was away?"
Li Yan paused in her act of picking up food.
Feeling wronged, Li Yan frowned slightly and said, "I didn't."
Gu Tingyu didn't believe Li Yan and slammed his chopsticks on the table: "If it wasn't you, why is Rou Rou afraid of you the moment she sees you?"
Li Yan withdrew her hand, a hint of anger in her eyes: "Gu Tingyu, before you falsely accuse me, can you at least provide some evidence?"
Seeing that Li Yan was arguing with him, Gu Tingyu could not control his anger and said in a harsh tone, "Isn't Xu Rou's behavior the best evidence?"
