Gu Tong sobbed, the shoe polish on her face had smudged all over. She said aggrievedly, "You are a trainee, you are the Devil King, you are a hero defending the country... so why can't I become your comrade, your weapon, your trainee..."
She wanted to be with him, to fight alongside him, to grow old together.
Gu Tong's accusations thoroughly destroyed all of Li Yan's temper. He finally stood up, released his clenched fists, and walked toward Gu Tong, standing in front of her.
Gu Tong knew Li Yan was coming, but she was crying so hard that she couldn't care about anything else. She thought of things from her past life and was only concerned about her own grievances, completely ignoring whether Li Yan was angry or not.
Indeed, putting out a fire still requires water, and tears are the best extinguisher.
Li Yan sighed, yet he was completely at a loss. He reached out to pull Gu Tong into his arms, stroking her back to soothe her, saying, "Stop crying!"
