Gu Yuan’s hand holding the phone slowly tightened, the knuckles turning white.
She had a premonition that Quan Jin’s phone call was not a coincidence.
Gu Yuan hid her emotions well and asked, a little nervously, "You... called suddenly, is there sothing you need?"
"It’s not sudden." He said on the other end of the phone, "I was supposed to pick you up at the airport today. I’m sorry, I missed it again."
His voice sounded very low.
But did he call because of this?
From what Gu Yuan knew, this was not his style. He had never inquired about Gu Yuan in the capacity of Quan Jin.
"Have you already gone to the old house?" he asked cautiously on the other end of the phone.
Gu Yuan did not lie and said truthfully, "Yes, I’m here. Thanks for your concern."
He replied, "I should."
Should?
Was he saying that caring for her was sothing he should do?
That’s a bit funny.
During the marriage, he never cared about her.
Now that they’re divorced, he’s suddenly concerned?
Is it out of guilt...?
"Gu Yuan."
The sound of Quan Jin calling her na ca from the other end of the line.
His voice was so calm.
But to Gu Yuan, it didn’t sound calm at all.
She maintained a steady attitude in response, "What’s up?"
He asked her, "Since I lost my mory after the car accident, haven’t we... t again?"
Gu Yuan: "..."
As she had suspected, this call was not a coincidence.
Since he beca Quan Jin, he had never called Gu Yuan in the identity of Quan Jin, nor even a word of greeting, as if she didn’t exist.
Today he called her with a reasonable excuse, after all, he had promised to pick her up at the airport, then missed it, and his conscience made him feel sorry about it.
But at this ti, wasn’t he supposed to be flying to Hai City?
How could he suddenly call her?
All of this indicated... he already knew.
Not hearing Gu Yuan’s response, Quan Jin’s voice on the other end sounded mocking: "You say you’re Gu Yuan, but why does your voice sound so familiar to , like the voice of soone I really, really liked..."
Gu Yuan’s heart sank.
His voice continued coming through the receiver: "Sorry, I might have misspoken, it’s not like, perhaps you are her, I wonder if I’m right, Miss Gu Xueli?"
Gu Yuan: "..."
He really knew.
When leaving Huaxie Garden, his expression looked a bit off, but Gu Yuan was in a hurry to get to the old house to pick up Suisui, so she didn’t think deeply, assuming he was displeased about suddenly being sent on a business trip to Hai City by his fifth uncle.
Looking back now, he must have sensed sothing, which is why his expression was like that, right?!
But at this ti, Gu Yuan wouldn’t admit, she just said, "I am Gu Yuan, as for this Gu Xueli you ntioned, she might be your lover or girlfriend, has nothing to do with . Also, I’ve already arrived at the old house, thank you for your caring call."
After finishing speaking, Gu Yuan hung up the phone first.
Her arm was gently touched, and Gu Yuan turned her gaze to Quan Yin. Quan Yin reminded her, "Quan Jin is on the other side of the pond."
Gu Yuan instantly froze.
She only thought he knew, but didn’t expect he had returned to the old house, making this call while watching her.
Gu Yuan followed Quan Yin’s direction and looked over to the other side of the pond.
Under the willow tree, Quan Jin was standing there, a hand holding his phone to his ear. Even though the call had ended, he still maintained the posture of talking, and his eyes were firmly fixed in her direction, firmly fixed on her.
It seems that this ti, without any psychological preparation, he knows everything.
She reached her hand towards Suisui, who was in Quan Yin’s arms, coaxing her daughter, "Co to Mommy."
Just as Suisui was about to obediently reach out, Quan Yin said, "Aren’t you going to talk to him?"
Gu Yuan: "It’s not sothing that can be explained in a few words, besides, this isn’t a good place for a conversation."
At that mont, Quan Jin was already walking over.
Yu Rujin also noticed Quan Jin, and his appearance full of anger left Yu Rujin confused, and as Quan Jin approached, she asked, "Why are you so late? You were supposed to pick up Yuanyuan, since when have you ever been reliable?"
Quan Jin lowered his eyes and said, "Sorry, Grandma."
"Why are you apologizing to ? Go apologize to Yuanyuan," Yu Rujin pushed Quan Jin.
He allowed himself to be pushed forward a few steps, glanced at his fifth uncle, who still held his daughter in his arms, and standing beside him was her mother.
His gaze finally landed on Gu Yuan.
She looked indifferent, without the panic and guilt of having her lie exposed.
Yes, she had no need to feel guilty, because it was he who was in the wrong.
