"You...you scoundrel!"
Gu Qianlu instinctively covered her body, her cheeks suddenly flushing red.
Seeing her embarrassed expression, Chen Jinheng couldn't help but feel a pang of pity.
"Luo'er, thank you!"
Actually, I've wanted to tell you this for a long time.
"No need to thank me, you saved me too. We're even!"
"Perhaps you don't remember, but the boy you rescued ten years ago was me."
Gu Qianluo's heart skipped a beat. She turned to look at Chen Jinheng and asked seriously, "Was it you, the boy who jumped off the bridge by yourself?"

From now on, you must live well. Understand?
