章 515: Chapter 515: Ah Gui's Candid Confession

Ah Gui fell silent for a moment, then asked her, "What do you want me to say?"

"You're not mute, just say anything." Ye Xi didn't like the current feeling of quiet and silence; it was a bit scary.

"Let me tell you a story."

Ye Xi was slightly stunned, "Okay."

"A long time ago, there was a boy whose parents did secret work. The work was very dangerous, so they both died when the boy was fifteen. After their deaths, the boy never saw their bodies, not even their ashes were delivered to him."

"Because, even after their deaths, their work could not be connected to their family, to protect their family's safety."

Ye Xi listened with a frown, feeling oppressed.

"Then... what about the boy?"

Ah Gui's voice was very calm, "That boy eventually followed the same path as his parents."

Ye Xi's heart immediately tightened, "Is he still... "

"He's still alive. However, during one mission, he broke a leg."

"Then..." Ye Xi wasn't sure what to say.
