C218 (2/2)

It was too late to regret that the wrong decision had led to such a common situation. Gu Linxi thought that if she could have the time flow around, he definitely wouldn't be in the same room as Jiang Jiayi. This was too dangerous.

”Are you afraid?” Even though he couldn't clearly see Gu Linxi's expression, Jiang Jiayi could feel the nervousness on his face. Gu Linxi's nervous heartbeat and slow, long breathing were exceptionally clear amidst the tranquil and eerie atmosphere. If this didn't show that Gu Linxi was nervous, then Jiang Jiayi wouldn't know what it meant to be nervous.

She didn't like that Gu Linxi would reveal a frightened expression when facing him. Even though he had become a beast race expert before, Gu Xiangxi had never been afraid of him. But why? Why was she so scared and nervous at this moment? He was truly growing more and more disgusted by the feeling of being alienated by Gu Linxi. She had long since gotten used to being the center of attention. Jiang Jiayi was unable to endure such estrangement.

It was clearly such a warm and cold weather, but Gu Linxi felt that it was extremely hot and dry. Sweat slowly rolled down her forehead. The fear in her heart did not dissipate even a little bit. Under this kind of fear, Gu Linxi ignored the reluctance in his heart towards Jiang Jiayi.

He didn't answer Jiang Jiayi's question because it was obvious. How could she not be afraid? No matter who this was placed on, they would feel especially afraid. Gu Linxi felt that even though she hadn't cried out for help, she was already able to maintain her calm. The reason why she didn't call for help was because he didn't want to anger Jiang Jiayi.

The noise from the dancing in the square was so loud that no one could hear him even if he cried out for help. It was just that Jiang Jiayi was even angrier. If a man was truly angry, then the power was not something a weak girl like her could endure. Especially since this man seemed to have some intentions towards his.

Although he didn't hear Gu Linxi's answer, Jiang Jiayi still knew the answer. In the darkness, Gu Linxi seemed to hear Jiang Jiayi sigh. It was a sigh of extreme helplessness. For some reason, upon hearing this sigh, Gu Linxi's originally nervous mood lightened somewhat. Although she couldn't completely relax, he was no longer as nervous as she was just now.

Leaning against the wall, Gu Linxi remembered that there was a light switch on in this position. She didn't want to continue the confrontation with Jiang Jiayi in this darkness. Under such an atmosphere, it was easy for crimes to occur.

There was a sound of a board being pressed down in the air, and then the light illuminated the room. Their eyes had already gotten used to the darkness, but now that they were suddenly faced with such a bright room, they both had a feeling that they weren't used to it. He blinked and slowly got used to the light.

With the aid of the light, Gu Linxi was now completely able to see Jiang Jiayi clearly. And these lights seemed to disperse all the atmosphere that shouldn't have existed. Everything had become so bright, and everything had become so invisible.
