As Lin Zhenzhen watched his retreating figure, a vague sense of unease crept into her mind.

From the back, no, even from the front, it's impossible to tell who is who.

Lin Zhenzhen suddenly understood Gu Zhongsheng's intention. The reason he came in in elemental form from the beginning was that he deliberately changed into Gu Bosheng's clothes and swaggered out.

All of this was to create a false impression—the illusion that Gu Bosheng had escaped from prison.

Gu Bosheng suddenly spoke up: "Lingzhen, could you please help me up?"

Lin Zhenzhen squatted down and extended her right hand.

Gu Bosheng used the support to stand up: "Thank you."

He quickly let go of her hand: "How have you been these past few days?"

"Me?" Lin Zhenzhen was a little stunned.

She was a person who planned ahead, and had long imagined how Gu Bosheng would question her if they met again.

I had prepared various responses in advance.

But to her utter surprise, Gu Bosheng still caught her off guard.

Lin Zhenzhen lowered her head: "I'm fine."

"That's good." Gu Bosheng's eyes were gentle. "I'm sorry, I scared you that night."

Lin Zhenzhen felt a little sad: "General Gu, you don't always have to be so gentle. I'm the one who should apologize."

If it weren't for her, Gu Bosheng might not have been driven to such a desperate situation, or at least not so quickly.

Gu Bosheng smiled and said, "I was worried about how you would survive outside after leaving the Gu family. Now it seems that I was overthinking it."

His gaze lingered on Lin Zhenzhen without making a sound.

"I had forgotten that besides me, you could choose to depend on other people."
