Chapter 61 No Longer Hiding

Every word was like a sharp knife cutting open the heart.

Gu He closed his eyes, and as he used up all his strength, he leaned against the entrance counter: "I saved you, not to repay your kindness."

He just thought he had made the best choice under the circumstances at the time and felt he could rescue all the sisters safely.

Even if Qin Ruo had not saved him, he would probably have made the same choice.

But now listening to what Qin Ruo said, I actually thought that he chose her out of kindness?

She also took the blame for Qin Qing's death on herself, silently blaming herself for it, but never dared to tell anyone?

Heartache and helplessness emerged at the same time. Gu He didn't know that Qin Ruo had to bear such great pressure alone, but the right and wrong of what happened back then could no longer be determined, and he was in no position to comfort her.

The two of them stayed in the small space at the door. After an unknown amount of time, Qin Ruo took a deep breath, raised her head and forced an ugly smile: "Passed. Don't worry. No matter what you do, I won't blame you."

She leaned against the wall and tried to stand up: "So she's been arguing with you these days because of this."

"It's okay, I don't care. After such a long period of torture, I am actually relieved that it can end at this moment."

"Let's go to the police station. Find a way to contact Yun Ran. I will give her a satisfactory explanation and calm her hatred. She shouldn't quarrel with you again and threaten you with separation."

Gu He frowned as he listened and pulled Qin Ruo, who was about to leave, "Wait, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by relieved? Why did you say to calm the hatred?"

Qin Ruo widened her eyes and asked tentatively, "Brother He, don't you know?"

"Know what?" Gu He felt that the truth that he had finally found out became confused again.

Qin Ruo sighed: "I thought you already knew everything, Brother He... I didn't tell the truth. In fact, I knew Yun Ran before."

"I know this." Gu He nodded.

Qin Ruo: "To be exact, I don't really know him. We've only met a few times."

She closed her eyes. "I didn't mean to cause her to almost die."

Gu He was stunned: "What?"

Qin Ruo pursed her lips and said, "Brother He knows what I'm thinking. Now that things have come to this, I don't want to hide it anymore."

"That's right, I like you. It's not the love for a brother, it's the love for a man."

"I fell in love with you a long time ago, but you only have me in your eyes and heart. I can't compete with you for you, so I can only hide this feeling deep in my heart."

Gu He already knew all this, but it was the first time he heard Qin Ruo confess in person. He was still a little at a loss and didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, Qin Ruo didn't need his answer and continued on her own: "After my sister passed away, because I was largely responsible for her death, I didn't dare to mention it. I just wanted to wait for a while, so that the pain would slowly heal, and then I would express my feelings to you."

"But I didn't expect that you never considered me from the beginning to the end. Even a woman like Yun Ran can do it, but I can't. I can't compare to my sister, after all, she is indeed better, but Yun Ran, what's the reason?"

"Brother He, why do you never turn around and look at me? We grew up together as childhood sweethearts. Am I really that bad?"
