"Big brother, I promised Sister Xiao Yi that I wouldn’t tell you where she is." Gu Yan said with difficulty.
"You can tell . I won’t tell her you told ." Rong Sinan’s breathing was rough; his voice, usually deep and llow, now was hoarse and raspy.
Gu Yan felt particularly reluctant.
But recalling what Tang Yige had said to him before, Gu Yan gritted his teeth and forced himself to say, "Big brother, please don’t make it difficult for . I really can’t say. I’m sorry, big brother."
Leaving those words behind, Gu Yan turned around and walked away directly.
"Gu Yan!"
Rong Sinan’s roar echoed from behind.
Gu Yan clenched his jaw so tight that veins bulged at his temples.
Yet he still did not look back; he walked to his car, opened the door, and got in.
Without giving himself ti to hesitate, he drove away swiftly.
"Gu Yan!"
Rong Sinan stared at Gu Yan’s departing car, eyes red as if they might spill blood at any mont.
Xiao Nanqing saw this, and his phoenix eyes also showed a hint of reluctance.
His thin lips tightened, and his gaze dropped slightly.
...
Xiao Nanqing took Rong Sinan back to his apartnt, seeing him sitting on the sofa with his head hanging like a petrified statue, surrounded by a gloomy atmosphere.
A dark sigh crossed his mind.
Sitting beside him, Xiao Nanqing turned his head to look at Rong Sinan’s chin and lips, which seed to have suddenly sprouted stubble, and his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, "Big brother, given the current situation between you and Sister Xiao Yi, it’s actually not suitable for you two to be together. Sister Xiao Yi’s physical condition, as well as her ntal state, need a quiet environnt for recuperation and recovery. You might as well give her so ti, wait till she fully recovers, her eyes heal, and the trauma in her heart alleviates so, then it won’t be too late for you to find her again. What do you think?"
Rong Sinan’s eyelashes drooped, and it seed as if he had built an isolation barrier around him.
Xiao Nanqing’s voice couldn’t reach his ears, bounced back by this barrier.
He seed to have started rejecting outside voices indeed.
Xiao Nanqing clearly saw that Rong Sinan couldn’t listen to anyone right now, so he stopped talking but didn’t leave either.
He wasn’t sure if Rong Sinan’s condition was suited for being alone.
...
Qing She.
In a room on a strictly restricted floor without Xiao Nanqing’s permissions.
When Gu Yan opened the door and entered, Tang Yige had just reluctantly eaten sothing and fallen asleep again.
Lei Yicheng was keeping watch by Yige’s bedside.
Seeing Gu Yan enter with a defeated expression, Lei Yicheng’s deep eyes narrowed slightly.
Gu Yan glanced at the sleeping Yige on the bed, then at Lei Yicheng, with a doll-like face full of depression.
Lei Yicheng’s eyes tightened; he stood up from the chair and walked out of the private room’s lounge.
Gu Yan closed his eyes briefly, lowered his head, and followed him out.
As he went out, Gu Yan made sure to close the lounge door quietly.
Lei Yicheng sat on the sofa, raised one strong leg onto the coffee table, and lit a cigarette.
Gu Yan also sat on the sofa at one side, watching Lei Yicheng puffing smoke.
Lei Yicheng squinted through the smoke at Gu Yan, his rich voice carrying a hint of hoarseness, "Sorted?"
Gu Yan’s doll-like face twitched twice; he leaned forward, picked up the cigarette box and lighter from the coffee table, furrowed his brow, irritably lit a cigarette, took several harsh puffs before saying, "Sorted what? I’m stuck between you three, almost becoming the filling in a sandwich!"
Lei Yicheng’s mouth corner clenched coldly.
Gu Yan held the cigarette between his lips, squinted his eyes as he reclined back, his frustration written all over his face, "I tell you, you three are even more tangled than Boss Rong and Little Mo Mo."
Upon hearing this, Lei Yicheng raised the corner of his eye slightly to glance at Gu Yan but said nothing.
Gu Yan took a couple more puffs and said, "I bet if Sister Xiao Yi got married, you two would settle down and stop causing a stir. Sister Xiao Yi would also be better off, not stuck between you two, constantly in difficulty."
Lei Yicheng frowned tightly, took a deep drag of smoke, self-mocking, "When did Yige ever have difficulty? Between and Rong Sinan, she always chooses Rong Sinan."
Gu Yan froze for a mont, then said sothing that made Lei Yicheng want to strangle him on the spot, "True!"
Lei Yicheng’s deep eyes glared, coldly staring at Gu Yan.
Gu Yan acted as if he didn’t notice, sighing heavily while smoking.
He had never been so conflicted and at a loss.
Sotis deceiving Rong Sinan for Lei Yicheng, other tis keeping secrets from Rong Sinan for Yige.
Right now, Gu Yan genuinely felt a thousand apologies to Rong Sinan.
His heart was full of guilt.
Gu Yan rubbed his chest, sprang up from the sofa, extinguished his cigarette butt in the ashtray on the coffee table, and said, "I can’t take it anymore, I need to step away."
