Lu Chengzhou looked at Gu Mang's expressionless face and he lowered his head slightly so that his eyes were level with her.
He squeezed the back of her neck affectionately, as if he was trying to comfort her. He spoke word for word, slowly. "I will get back at them for you and I will avenge you."
Gu Mang looked up. Her gaze landed on his eyes, which were just an inch away.
She could see her reflection clearly in his eyes.
There was only her reflection.
The man used to have cold eyes but at this moment, they glittered and they were extremely gentle. It made one's heart tremble.
It was like the only ray of light in the darkness that was lit up just for her.
When Gu Mang returned to Jijing Island, she was already prepared for the worst.
She pushed Lu Chengzhou away, but she did not expect him to come on his own to accompany her.
While she was at the peak, he stood even higher to protect her.
