Pei Nianchen was silent for a good while.
He looked at Gu Jiayin, with a myriad of emotions surging in his eyes.
Lu Xiya likes him?
His handsome, dark eyebrows knitted slightly, and he felt very sorry for never noticing.
Finally, he asked calmly, "Is it because of Xiya?"
Is it because of Lu Xiya that she's rejecting him like this?
Gu Jiayin couldn't help frowning, unsure of how to explain. Just as she hesitated to organize her words, she saw him pick up his phone and dial a number.
"Xiya, please come to Yuxiang Garden, there's something I need to clarify with you in person."
"..."
"Yes, right now."
It wasn't until Pei Nianchen hung up the phone and placed it back on the table that Gu Jiayin reacted. She stood up awkwardly, "Brother Nianchen, you..."
How could he directly ask Xiya to come, that would make Xiya feel embarrassed.
Pei Nianchen, however, remained seated, expressionless, looking at her very calmly, "Jiayin, I will resolve every reason you have to reject me."
