Ye Lu shuddered, slightly raising her head, but what met her gaze was the face of Gu Yan.
Her face instantly paled, her heart froze, and she panicked, lowering her head. In this moment, she felt extreme shame, wishing she could die there and then.
All this disgrace was seen by the man she loved, a pain she could never bear.
Gu Yan looked at her in shock and pain, despite having harbored deep hatred for her.
But at this moment, he felt an indescribable heartache. He couldn't bear to see someone else humiliating her, shaming her this way.
"Let's go, come with me!" he softly said.
Ye Lu incredulously raised her head to look at him. What did he say? Did she hear him right?
He said to go with him. Could she? Was she dreaming?
But, even if it was a dream, she wanted to grab onto him, to return to the wonderful beginning.
She trembled as she reached out and held his hand.
