After dinner, Lu Beiyuan casually wrapped his arm around Su Nanxing: "You guys take your time, we're heading home first."
The two left, and Dong Shanshan looked over at Gu Baichuan: "I'll head out too, bye."
"Wait." Gu Baichuan grabbed her uninjured hand: "I'll walk you home."
"No need." Dong Shanshan shook off his hand: "Stop being handsy."
Gu Baichuan chuckled helplessly: "You call this being handsy? Even if we're divorced, it's common courtesy to walk you home when you're injured, isn't it?"
Dong Shanshan said instead: "I just ate, I'd like to take a walk and digest. No need to trouble President Gu."
"Then let me walk with you."
Since he insisted, Dong Shanshan didn't argue further. The two walked in silence down the road.
As they walked, their arms brushed against each other occasionally.
Dong Shanshan silently moved a bit farther away from him.
Gu Baichuan felt annoyed but said nothing, deliberately stepping closer in her direction.
