If Jiang Jiayi had always been so gentle, how wonderful would it be? While thinking like this, Gu Linxi also felt that she was being too whimsical. [What the hell? Is she dreaming?] Why did she feel that the person in front of her was like this from the very beginning? Gu Linxi's face revealed a puzzled expression. Just what kind of past did she and Jiang Jiayi have?

For some unknown reason, a scene similar to an illusion appeared in front of him. It was as if he was sitting on a bench with a boy whose face couldn't be clearly seen. The boy, whose appearance could not be seen clearly, gently held her hand and carefully wiped the scratches of a cat on the back of her hand with hydrogen peroxide. At this moment, Gu Linxi couldn't tell what that person had said. She only felt that that person had the gentlest side in the world.

She could feel that her heart was filled with joy as she sat next to the man's voice. Even the slight pain in her hand was unable to cover up her smile. She seemed very happy because of the word love. Gu Linxi's face couldn't help but be infected by the joy on it. The corners of her mouth slightly lifted up. Why did it feel like she had just met her first love?

The stinging pain in his hand pulled her back from that dream-like state to reality. Gu Lingxi had also withdrawn his smile, frowning as he looked at his current hand. Why did she think that the person before her would have a gentle side? He was clearly a fiendish devil. Even though he was gentle, it was nothing more than a hypocritical gentleness.

If he really wanted to talk about gentleness, only then would Xie Siqian take it seriously. When he thought of Xie Siqian, Gu Linxi couldn't help but pull her hand away from Jiang Jiayi's. It wasn't appropriate for her to be alone with Jiang Jiayi. If Xie Siqian found out about this, he would probably get angry. Gu Lin Xi didn't want to anger Xie Si Er. If possible, she hoped that she would bring happiness and not sadness to Xie Si Er.

”I'm fine.” Even though she had used too much strength, causing him to feel some pain in her left hand, Gu Linxi still furrowed her brows slightly. Raising her head to look at Jiang Jiayi, Gu Linxi continued speaking, ”If you have nothing else to say, can I ask you to leave this place?”

Jiang Jiayi had never expected to hear of this order. His eyes revealed a hint of danger. Just now, his gentleness was like a fleeting flower, and now, this kind of Jiang Jiayi was the real deal. However, even though Jiang Jiayi's current appearance made Gu Linxi feel somewhat uncomfortable, Gu Linxi also didn't want to give in. It was indeed inappropriate for her to continue staying here with Jiang Jiayi.

Moreover, it was time for her to go back to Xie Siniang's place. Otherwise, he would probably be worried when Xie Si Er returned home and didn't see him.

It was rare for such a scene to occur today. Jiang Jiayi had never thought that such a scene would occur between him and Gu Linxi. No, perhaps he had imagined such a scene. Back then, when he was still alive in this world, he had been constantly thinking about what he would do if he were to uncover all of the truth. Would it be painful to the point of wanting to die, or would it just simply not be able to stand up? Regardless of whether it was any of the two, both were things that Jiang Jiayi wished to see.

Originally, the reason why they were close to Gu Linxi was for the sake of harming him. However, the situation had changed. Gu Chenzhou, the person he wanted to take revenge on the most, had already left to apologize to his sister. He was no longer obsessed with those things. If one were to say what he was determined to accomplish, then it would be Gu Xiangxi alone. He wanted to spend the rest of his life with Gu Xiangxi.

But now, it seemed like he and Gu Linxi wouldn't be able to return to that time. Gu Linxi had already forgotten about him, and had even wanted him to leave. Jiang Jiayi felt unspeakably sad in his heart. He was not an unintentional person. If he didn't have the slightest bit of affection for Gu Lingxi, why would he be so angry and jealous when he saw them together?
