Tempted?
Rong Chang disagreed with the system's statement.
Because she was moved by Gu Xingchen, she saw a reflection of someone else in him.
It could be the Lord God, or it could be that person's.
But no matter which one it is, it's not Gu Xingchen.
She wasn't actually attracted to Gu Xingchen, but rather to certain familiar aspects of him.
This is unfair to Gu Xingchen.
He was neither her target nor the person she loved.
He was just a substitute for someone else.
A person wanders aimlessly through an unfamiliar city.
I don't know when it happened, but when I looked at the time, it was already 10 o'clock, past 10 o'clock.
Gu Xingchen called, and Rong Shang answered.
He was very emotional on the phone.
He asked her where she had gone and why she hadn't come back for so long.
Rong Shang didn't say anything, only that she went out for a walk to clear her head.
But she knew she wouldn't go back.
If you can't leave this place, then leave it.
A few seconds of silence.
Rong Shang changed her mind and decided to tell him the truth.
"Gu Xingchen, I've been out for too long, I should go back now."
"Where are you? I'll send someone to pick you up."
"You misheard me, I'm going back to my home."
A sudden gust of wind arose, and Rong Shang raised her chin slightly, looking at the endless road ahead. "Gu Xingchen, I can't find the Blood Spirit Orb. I should go back."
"..."
What was it that made his heart suddenly ache at this moment?
Honestly, sometimes he really wanted to proudly tell her, "I'm the only person in this world who understands you better than anyone else."
Just like now, even though she had only said a few words, he could already sense her dejected mood.
Also, she must have felt very lonely at this moment, right?
Standing at the window of the lounge, Gu Xingchen looked up at the starry sky above.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
"Come back."
As he said this, his eyes began to well up with tears.
"All is well, I'm letting you come back."
"Feel sorry."
Her cold voice came from the phone, and Gu Xingchen already knew that she was going to hang up.
If she hangs up this time, he might not be able to find her again.
How does it feel?
I felt both gratified and lonely.
Thankfully, she truly wouldn't accept anyone else besides him.
The sad thing is that they don't know when they will be able to see each other again.
I truly felt the other person's presence.
"Anhao, if I told you I knew where the Blood Spirit Orb was, would you still leave?"
I think so.
The man silently vowed that by then, she would leave this place for good.
But he just couldn't bear to see her alone and helpless again.
She's already suffered enough in real life; there's no reason for her to suffer even more on his turf.
"What did you say?" came the surprised tone from the other party. Gu Xingchen smiled and understood.
“I said I knew the whereabouts of the Blood Spirit Orb.”
Where?
"..." The wind howled.
Rong Shang heard this, and her shimmering eyes paused.

"What's the rush? Why are you going back to City B so soon?"
There's no need to make any announcements tomorrow.
If you've already given yourself a break, is it really necessary to rush back overnight?
As soon as they exited the airport, Su Yunmeng followed behind Gu Xingchen, complaining.
He was walking with Rong Shang at the time.
The two of them didn't speak a word the whole way.
Even when Su Yunmeng spoke, no one paid any attention to her.
Afterwards, they took a taxi directly from the airport entrance back to the restaurant.
Honestly, the way these two did things really left Su Yunmeng completely bewildered.
Even after getting off the bus, she had only one thought in her mind: Had those two been arguing again?
