C51 (1/2)
Indeed, it was just as she had said. She had invited Gu Linxi for a meal the moment they got off the plane. Gu Linxi had initially thought she could agree to it, but Jiang Jiayi hadn't agreed. Although Gu Linxi didn't know why Jiang Jiayi would disagree, she still refused Zhu Yitong's offer, saying that she would make another appointment the next time she had a chance.
”It's such a pity, but since you've returned from Shanning, there will be a lot of opportunities for us to meet in the future. When that happens, you better not make an excuse and not come. ”
”Of course.” Gu Linxi nodded. She felt that Zhu Yi Tong was a very passionate person. However, this person seemed to be such a passionate person from high school to university. In high school, they were not in the same class or dorm room, so Gu Linxi didn't know much about Zhu Yi Tong.
However, when they were still in university, Gu Linxi and Zhu Yitong happened to be roommates and had come from the same high school, so their relationship was naturally much better. At that time, Zhu Yitong would frequently fetch water for him and occasionally help him with food. She seemed to be especially enthusiastic. However, at that time, Jiang Jiayi had said that it wasn't appropriate for Zhu Yitong to get to know him too well, but Jiang Jiayi hadn't said the specific reason.
On the way back, Gu Xiangxi had listened to Jiang Jiayi recount what he had heard on the plane. After hearing it, he merely smiled, shrugged his shoulders, and didn't take it to heart.
”You didn't like me having a close relationship with Zhu Yitong. Perhaps you thought Zhu Yitong was someone who didn't seem to be on the same side?”
Jiang Jiayi looked at Gu Linxi in astonishment. He hadn't expected that the unlucky Jiang Jiayi would have the same opinion as him at this point.
Gu Linxi could very calmly talk about the past, but Jiang Jiayi couldn't completely listen to Gu Linxi's words without a guilty conscience. Even a ghost would have a guilty side to them. Especially since he knew that he was the fake Jiang Jiayi, it was not natural for him to talk about the past.
”In terms of looking at people, you seem to always be much stronger than me. ”Mr. Jiang, you're really amazing.” Gu Linxi praised Jiang Jiayi without restraint. Even though Jiang Jiayi knew that he deserved this sort of praise, he still couldn't help but feel elated in his heart. Any man would feel a sense of satisfaction at hearing someone he loved say such words to him.
Although Gu Linxi took Jiang Jiayi's words to heart, she didn't think that she and Zhu Yi would have any sort of relationship. Gu Linxi didn't want to make any analysis on a person who wouldn't have too much contact with him, and what exactly was in that person's heart. What kind of person was Zhu Yitong? If she were to speak coldly, what did it have to do with her hiding? It had nothing to do with her at all.
All of his good mood abruptly stopped when he saw the person at his doorstep. It was as if the music had been forcefully cut off. Gu Linxi's expression turned extremely gloomy.
”What are you doing here?”
It was the first time that Jiang Jiayi had seen the tone in which Gu Linxi spoke. He looked at the woman at the door with a somewhat puzzled expression. It was an extremely unfamiliar woman, and beside her was a young man. This should be a mother and child. What was the relationship between mother and son? Jiang Jiayi seemed to have his own guesses, because that youth was rather similar to Gu Linxi. Coupled with the fact that he had seen Gu Linxi's father last time, Jiang Jiayi was able to deduce the relationship between these few people.
”Heaven's Altar! Hurry up and call me Big Sister!”
The youngster timidly hid beside the woman and called her elder sister.
