"Someone's coming?" Lian Manman immediately lowered her voice.
Listening to the sounds outside was heading towards this study. So, this should be the final part of Cai Xiu's scheme, having someone find her right in the study.
Lian Manman was very anxious; she couldn't be discovered here. Shen Liu seemed very composed, looking at Lian Manman with a smile on his face, as if he enjoyed watching Lian Manman in her panic.
Shen Liu being like this made Lian Manman quite exasperated. She hadn't expected Shen Liu to have such a side. But, thinking it through, perhaps it's not surprising. She had never fantasized about Shen Liu being a gentlemanly, easygoing man.
What to do now? If Shen Liu weren't here, Lian Manman intended to walk out confidently. But with Shen Liu here, things became complicated.
"You need to leave quickly." Listening to the footsteps and voices getting closer outside, Lian Manman urgently whispered to Shen Liu.
