If Xue Rui went looking for Gu Muxue, it would make her miserable.
'She finally understood what Xue Rui meant when he said he owed Gu Muxue. She owed Gu Muxue, too...'
'If they were to fight over him, she was the one who couldn't afford to lose. The life she had now, sitting side-by-side with Xue Rui, was a gift from Gu Muxue.'
"Did you... did you hear me clearly?" Lin Ruoxi deliberately put on an angry expression, trying to make a stronger impression on Xue Rui.
Because that was how Gu Muxue acted, and Xue Rui always listened to Gu Muxue.
Xue Rui was stunned for a long moment. He had never seen Lin Ruoxi act so tough, though he could clearly sense the lack of conviction in her voice.
"Xixi?" Xue Rui softly spoke that one word, then stared silently into Lin Ruoxi's eyes.
Soon, Lin Ruoxi's head drooped, and she rested it gently on Xue Rui's shoulder. "Rui... I was wrong."
"What were you wrong about?" Xue Rui chuckled, ruffling Lin Ruoxi's hair.
