Chapter 73: Chapter 073 Reflection

Perhaps because he had been caught in the rain, Gu Huai’s complexion seemed paler, as if shrouded in a layer of thin mist from the deep mountains in the morning.

The slightly damp strands of hair, his thin lips, and particularly those eyes that seemed boundlessly enchanting when filled with mirth—lacking the usual clear and refined aura of an immortal, instead gave him a more devilishly charming feel…

For a moment, Qi Yue felt almost as if her soul had been hooked away.

The intensity of her heartbeat reminded her of the time she had rushed into the rain with Gu Huai, sharing a coat and seeing his long eyelashes up close.

Back then she didn’t fully understand what that feeling was, but now, having experienced it once more, she suddenly realized that she was clearly…

Enthralled by his attractiveness…

What did Gu Huai mean by that?

All along, Qi Yue had never considered Gu Huai to be just a person.

She had regarded him as if he were a deity, never imagining that he could possess human desires.

She had never expected herself to say such things either…

Although he would often joke around, even calling her “girlfriend” from time to time, she vaguely felt that his words at this moment seemed a bit unusual.

Qi Yue instinctively laughed it off, “No way, God, I never thought of you as a person… No, that’s not what I mean… I’ve always seen you as a deity…”

Hearing Qi Yue say she had never thought of him as a person, Gu Huai’s brows lifted slightly, “I’ve let down President Qi’s trust, I’m just a normal man, afraid I can’t achieve detachment from all worldly things. It’s President Qi’s attitude that forces me to reflect.”

Qi Yue was puzzled, “Huh? What are you reflecting on?”

Gu Huai smiled, “In this situation, you have no inappropriate thoughts about me, shouldn’t I reflect on that?”

Qi Yue: “Er…”

Qi Yue asked herself honestly…

Actually, it seemed that… she didn’t completely lack inappropriate thoughts either…
