35 He Actually Got Rejected! (2/2)

Nonetheless, he now respected her after he heard her reply.

He now felt even more committed to wanting to be her friend; the determination flashed through his eyes, ”Yes, you are right, but I do believe that we are going to be friends one day!”

Gu Xijiu smiled vaguely without a word.

The world of a killer is dark and friendless, with only clients, preys, and acquaintances…

She used to count only one friend as her true friend, who she was willing to sacrifice for and even wanted to marry, but, she got a nasty stab in return! What desperation and a reminder it was!

As the shadow of Long Xi flashed through her mind, the corner of her mouth turned slightly upwards as she took a cup of tea from the desk and gulped it down.

The murderer, Gu Xijiu had died. In this life, she wanted to live only for herself and would not let anyone be her burden.

When she was muttering while leaning against the guardrail, some noises from downstairs were heard, indicating that some guests had just arrived. She looked down and squinted her eyes!

There were three people - a man and two ladies.

Gu Xijiu knew the three of them, as they were her worthless husband-to-be, Rong Yan, and her two sisters, Gu Tianqing and Gu Tianyi.

As a group of pretty boys and girls always catches one's eye, they had attracted attention from most people as soon as they entered.

From an insignificant nobody, Rong Yan had just become a somebody. He was enjoying the limelight, hence, many VIPs and high-rank officials sitting on the first floor knew of him and greeted him.

Rong Yan looked worried at first, but he looked better and was pleased with himself when he was receiving much flattery from the people. The Gu sisters were standing by his side and felt honored too.
