Xia Xi rolled her eyes and said, "We're already exposed, but we can't just confess directly... If we do that, won't we be a little dumb?"
Gu Tong chimed in, saying, "Before, they couldn't find any clues, but now that they have, why can't we reveal the truth? Our perspective has to change from how it was in the past."
Before, they thought about playing dumb before the reveal, but now they're thinking about the response after the reveal.
Geez...
This really is a difficult problem.
Xia Xi was on the verge of tears, saying, "This happened at your house, you have to handle it..."
Gu Tong also changed clothes but ignored her, pushing open the dressing room door and said, "If I had a solution, I wouldn't drag you out to brainstorm ideas!"
Sometimes Xia Xi was smart, sometimes she was dumb. If not hoping for strength in numbers, Gu Tong would never consult her for ideas.
"..." Do you have to be so straightforward, huh? It really hurts!
