When Shen Biran sat in front of Gu Xiaonuan, Gu Xiaonuan was unexpectedly calm.
"I don't need to say it, you must have guessed it."
Shen Biran could feel that Gu Xiaonuan had already discovered it. It wasn't a secret; just a little thought would reveal the key.
As long as Gu Xiaonuan believed Shen Biran wasn't just a dream, then she could immediately detect the crucial point.
Shen Biran had deceived her for too long, too long.
"What exactly made you choose to deceive me in this way? Why would you deceive your own daughter?"
Gu Xiaonuan couldn't understand, as if all her loneliness and hardships over the years were just a joke.
What was Gu Xiaonuan doing it all for? For whom was she barely holding on until now?
"Have I ever told you? How hard these years have been for me? More than once, I thought about giving up. Just give up, stop persisting."
Many times, Gu Xiaonuan would say this to herself.
