Despite his despair, Gu Xijue still held on to a thread of hope. No, Nuannuan wouldn't treat him like this.
Gu Xiaonuan saw Gu Xijue's caller ID, her heart sank, and she reached out to mute the phone.
If she couldn't hear it, she wouldn't think too much, and her heart could find some rare peace.
Gu Xijue didn't give up after the first call didn't go through; he called again, the second, the third...
Gu Xiaonuan watched her phone screen light up and dim, dimming and then lighting up again, a strange emotion flickering in her heart.
Hadn't she decided to part ways completely with Gu Xijue and only see him as a brother? But then, who was that heartache for?
Gu Xiaonuan, oh Gu Xiaonuan, how can you have your cake and eat it too?
Gu Xiaonuan hesitated, picking up the phone several times, but ultimately not answering the call.
After several attempts, she laughed at her own actions.
