Chen Fan didn't respond to her right away. It was only when she was almost at the hotel room that he replied, "Sorry, I just woke up."
He replied, but he didn't accept the money. He also responded, "This, this is too much. Sister Siyu, I can't accept it."

But when Chen Fan said, "I believe you," she really felt a surge of emotion, a bit touched, and a bit guilty.
