When Xia Yinian went to find Gu Lingqian, he had just finished bathing and stepped out of the bathroom.
"What's with the sudden closeness to your older sister?"
That was his first sentence upon seeing her.
Xia Yinian was taken aback; indeed, there were things he could easily see through.
She fiddled with her fingers, "She..."
After a moment of thought, she said: "She agreed to give me money."
"Under what conditions?" Gu Lingqian narrowed his eyes, it was, unexpectedly, related to money.
"I agreed to help, to let her stay in the Gu Family's home for a few days."
She let out a breath, walked in, and casually closed the door behind her.
"So, may I ask you to let her stay, just temporarily for a few days?"
"You treat the Gu Family's home like a hotel, collecting your own money to have the Gu Family accept her?"
Gu Lingqian's expressionless face made it impossible for Xia Yinian to discern what he was thinking at that moment.
