The moment Jiang Jiayi had returned, he had already noticed it. He couldn't think of anything that could cause Gu Linxi to be so troubled. Walking forward and patting Gu Linxi on the shoulder, Gu Linxi was so scared that her soul nearly flew out of her body. She patted her chest. She had been too preoccupied with her thoughts just now and hadn't taken any precautions.

Was it already night? Gu Linxi had completely forgotten about the time. When she saw Jiang Jiayi appear, he suddenly realized that it was already night.

”You're back?” Gu Linxi seemed to be still in a slightly panicked state. She absentmindedly asked Jiang Jiayi a question that was rather meaningless.

Jiang Jiayi smiled and nodded. He knocked on Gu Linxi's head, saying, ”What are you thinking about so absent-mindedly? You didn't even notice when I returned.”

Normally, before he even got close to Gu Linxi, he would be able to easily discover his existence. However, today, it seemed as if Gu Linxi hadn't sensed her return at all. Jiang Jiayi wanted to know the reason for his heavy heart.

”I'm thinking, is Liu Xiuyun really okay?” Gu Linxi was very sincere. She wanted to know if Jiang Jiayi was really sure that Liu Xiuyun was fine. Otherwise, she would always feel uneasy.

”You don't believe me?” Jiang Jiayi asked, narrowing his eyes.

Gu Linxi shook her head. It wasn't that she didn't believe in Jiang Jiayi; on the contrary, she believed in Jiang Jiayi. It was because she believed that Jiang Jiayi would choose to directly ask Jiang Jiayi. It was just that Liu Xiuyun didn't reply to him, which made her somewhat concerned. Even if Liu Xiuyun hated him, she wouldn't have ignored him until now.

”I was wondering if he was in some kind of accident.” Gu Linxi did not suspect that Jiang Jiayi had killed Liu Xiuyun. After all, in his heart, Jiang Jiayi would not kill someone so recklessly. However, Gu Linxi had overlooked one point. Jiang Jiayi had always been a ghost. Talking to a ghost about reason and law really made no sense.

Jiang Jiayi smiled in an unconcerned manner as he fiddled with Gu Linxi's hair and whispered into her ear.

”Aren't you afraid that I'll be jealous if you think about other men in front of me?”

Gu Linxi was stunned for a moment. Was Jiang Jiayi serious? She looked at Jiang Jiayi with a face full of black lines. She couldn't help but glare at him coquettishly.

”Are you jealous?” She actually wanted to know if Jiang Jiayi would really be jealous of something like this? Before Jiang Jiayi could reply, Gu Linxi smiled and said, ”If you're jealous of this, then aren't you the one who was reincarnated with vinegar?”

”I don't know if I was reincarnated in the vinegar vat in my previous life. But I know I've been a vinegar jar all my life. ”

Gu Linxi was clearly not used to Jiang Jiayi's words. She felt goosebumps all over her body. Although her mind was a little shaken by Jiang Jiayi's sugar-coated artillery shell, Gu Linxi didn't completely forget the question she wanted to ask. After reprimanding herself, Gu Linxi pushed Jiang Jiayi away. After all, Jiang Jiayi was so close to her that she found it difficult to speak.

”What's wrong?” Jiang Jiayi looked at Gu Linxi with a somewhat innocent expression. He wasn't very satisfied with their current two steps distance. He liked the feeling of hugging Gu Linxi in her arms.

Gu Linxi didn't reply. She sat down on the sofa and lightly tapped the edge of the sofa with her fingers.

Seeing that Gu Linxi had a thoughtful expression on her face, Jiang Jiayi also sat beside him. He looked at him with a serious expression and asked, ”You have something to ask me?”
