Startled, Lin Ruonan immediately averted her eyes. After all, facing Mu Xingfeng's ice-cold demeanor for nearly twenty years, she'd long grown accustomed to such an attitude from men. But Brother's gaze made her scalp tingle.
Thinking back to what Gu Haoyu had said to her last night, Lin Ruonan felt her heart pound erratically.
What the hell, why do I feel this way? Wasn't she supposed to like Mu Xingfeng? Now that Mu Xingfeng had found someone he liked, shouldn't she feel heartbroken since she had lost her love?
Lin Ruonan suddenly felt agitated. She disliked this version of herself. After loving someone for twenty years, it seemed too easy to be swayed by another man so soon after losing that love, even if this man was her close Brother.
Isn't it too unprincipled? Isn't it too fickle?
"Brother, don't be like this." Finally, Lin Ruonan spoke, then withdrew her hand.
Gu Haoyu's eyes darkened slightly but he said nothing, his gaze steady as he looked ahead.
