章 109: Chapter 86: The Older, The More Flavorful

Gu Yan tried his best to appear quite alright.

He gave Ye Xiao a comforting look.

No need to worry about him.

He had tried countless times to fight against the plot before.

But.

He failed every time.

And he failed miserably, without the slightest chance to resist.

But this time

even if it was tougher.

even if it was more painful.

Yet, he had succeeded in resisting the plot!

Having experienced countless lifetimes, Gu Yan knew very clearly that this so-called plot no longer bound him as tightly as it did before.

All these changes, they must have come from Ye Xiao.

Xiaoxiao had already helped him so much.

How could he, then, let Xiaoxiao down?

Ye Bingtong was still following the plot.

The onlookers continued to watch, as if no one had noticed anything wrong.

Ye Xiao looked at Gu Yan blankly, feeling somewhat distressed for reasons she did not understand.

Uncle Gu... he...

really didn't need to do this...

So.

Was she now feeling a tinge of heartache?
