But she was feeling a little flustered right now.
The source was the young boy beside her, who was now showing so temper and responded to her with indifference, which was hard to accept all of a sudden.
Noticing the increasing gazes around her, Gu Jin sighed softly and reached out to hold the boy’s hand again.
She said gently, "Xiao An, are you upset?"
"Hmm—" The boy replied with a nasal tone.
He held up the ring to Gu Jin’s eyes: "I said I’d give it to you, so why are you giving it back to ? Do you not want it anymore, or do you not want anymore?"
"..." Gu Jin.
The boy in front of her looked like a bristling cat, with a pitiful look of accusation in his eyes, feeling greatly wronged.
She clutched her chest with one hand, really unable to resist An Mingji’s look.
Too unfair!
Just as Gu Jin was about to speak, she noticed that An Mingji’s eyes were slightly red and his lips were tightly pressed in grievance.
Gu Jin’s expression changed, initially feeling slightly flirted with, a spark flaring up in her heart.
However, An Mingji’s truly aggrieved appearance made her heart ache, like a dense prickling sensation, as if pierced by needles.
"Xiao An, don’t be like this, it pains to see."
Gu Jin held the hand with the jade ring offered to her.
"I’m not giving you up, unless you choose to leave, I’ll never give you up!"
"Then wear it and never take it off!"
An Mingji’s voice was hoarse, but his tone was tenderly fierce.
He reached out and lifted Gu Jin’s hand, putting the jade ring back on her right index finger, where the phoenix pattern was tattooed.
After putting on the ring, An Mingji gently stroked Gu Jin’s hand, pleading, "Promise never to take it off, alright?"
This ring was very important to him, and Ah Jin was even more important.
"Okay!" Gu Jin couldn’t refuse him.
She turned her hand to hold the boy’s hand and said smoothly, "Xiao An, co with to et soone, okay?"
An Mingji lifted his eyes, his dark pupils staring at her: "You want to et?"
Gu Jin’s thoughts were a little complicated, wanting him to et yet not wanting to.
In fact, she was reluctant for An Mingji to leave; just thinking about the possibility made her heart strongly opposed.
In these three years, she had gotten used to the boy’s presence.
In the end, Gu Jin nodded.
"Then I’ll go et."
An Mingji likewise couldn’t refuse Gu Jin’s request.
Mu Zifan, Wanqi Jingyi, Wanqi Yihai, and Qiu Qianghai had been watching the pair of siblings.
Even Kasi and others were paying attention to their every move.
Upon hearing the boy agree to go upstairs to et the Family Head, she couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Though Lady Darwin was known for her ruthless reputation, no one knew that she hated violence the most, simply because she disliked blood.
Gu Jin and An Mingji stood up hand in hand.
Gu Jin patted Wanqi Jingyi’s arm, smiling as she consoled him: "Thank you for your hard work."
Wanqi Jingyi shook his head lightly, knowing she was taking An Mingji upstairs, and asked, "Would you like to accompany you?"
Gu Jin refused.
She turned her head to look at Qiu Qianghai, eting his worried and confused gaze, she softly reassured him, "Brother Hai, don’t worry about , rember our purpose for coming here, our budget is forty million."
Knowing she was talking about Night Paradise, Qiu Qianghai nodded, "Got it, I’ll do my best."
Gu Jin then looked at Mu Zifan, honestly, for a first eting today, she had a good impression of him.
He was able to step up no matter what stance he took, and for that, she was grateful.
"Thank you—"
Mu Zifan nodded reservedly, his face still cold.
