Probation…
Back then, she had spoken casually without thinking. Remembering what she said, however, he had been working hard at it the entire time.
At that moment, the walls of her heart constricted violently. She knew that she had already been shaken beyond control, and perhaps… she was about to surrender soon.
She couldn't bring herself to remain dispassionate when faced with this side of Gu Yu. She was falling even deeper than before.
"Soon," she whispered. Her voice was extremely soft; it was almost as if she was talking to herself.
Gu Yu apparently heard her, and the corners of his lips curled upward in a smile. He planted a gentle kiss between her brows and replied, "I'll wait, Xu Weilai."
Xu Weilai rested her cheek against the man's chest and listened to his steady heartbeat. She thought to herself that she wasn't going to make him wait for long. She just needed a little more courage to move past the knots in her heart.
