"Ling Xi." Jiang Jiayi suddenly and earnestly called out Gu Linxi's name, then looked into Gu Linxi's eyes and said, "Linxi, I hope you can promise me that you won't have any contact with Xie Siqian."

Gu Linxi was brought back to her memory by Jiang Jiayi's words. That year, after Jiang Jiayi found out that Xie Siqian had confessed to him, he dragged him to a corner of the school's back wall. Then, Jiang Jiayi had also looked at him with the same tone and expression.

"Gu Linxi, I want you to promise me that you'll always love me alone."

Yes, she did. Whether Jiang Jiayi was alive or dead, her heart would only love Jiang Jiayi forever. Jiang Jiayi's love had always been so tyrannical. Gu Linxi's eyes landed on him without any warning, not because she was moved, but because … She felt wronged.

Jiang Jiayi wanted to always love him alone, but Jiang Jiayi couldn't do it single-mindedly.

"Jiang Jiayi, why?"

"What did you say?"

Gu Linxi's voice had been too soft just now, and Jiang Jiayi had only heard him speak to him. However, he would only say it once if that was the case. He knew that there wouldn't be an answer, so why did he need to ask it a second time?

"I'll tell you. I promise you, I won't take the initiative to contact Xie Siqian." Gu Linxi's face revealed a reluctant smile. She was just an ordinary woman, and wasn't as open-minded as she'd imagined.

Jiang Jiayi was not very satisfied with Gu Linxi's answer. After snorting twice, Jiang Jiayi did not make Gu Linxi swear in the end that even if she met Xie Siqiang, she would still act as if she hadn't seen such a sight. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but rather, he was acutely aware that if he really did this, Gu Linxi would be extremely angry.

When they were passing by the infirmary, Gu Linxi suddenly saw a figure and stopped in her tracks. She turned her head to look at Jiang Jiayi. For some reason, she did not want Jiang Jiayi to see that person.

"Jiayi, go outside the hospital and wait for me. I seem to have left something there." Gu Linxi pushed Jiang Jiayi away. She knew that her current appearance was rather ear-piercing, but even so, she didn't want Jiang Jiayi to see that person.

However, it was already too late. Jiang Jiayi had also seen that person. Even if that person's appearance was a bit different, Jiang Jiayi could still recognize who that woman was.

She was a girl who made people want to protect her, her small face the size of a palm was adorable. Jiang Jiayi seemed to recall a scene in his mind. In that scene, he lifted up the chin of that face and then kissed it. Jiang Jiayi was caught unprepared by the appearance of this memory.

He was silent for a moment, then turned around and left the place under Gu Linxi's gaze. Jiang Jiayi knew what Gu Linxi meant. Even though there were some inexplicable scenes in his mind, he knew that the person he loved was Gu Jingxi. So whatever relationship he had with Ji Qingyun when he was still alive had already vanished.

Upon seeing Jiang Jiayi leave, Gu Linxi couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. The reason why she didn't leave with Jiang Jiayi was because she wanted to find Ji Qingyun and get to know her. Since the heavens had arranged for them to bump into each other here, she would follow their plans and ask.

"Sister Gu."

Ji Qingyun couldn't help but feel guilty as she looked at Gu Lingxi, who had suddenly appeared in front of her. Logically speaking, since so many years had passed, she should not feel guilty anymore. However, Gu Wei's arrival to find her a while ago had truly scared her out of her wits.

Gu Linxi glanced at Ji Qingyun with a complicated look in her eyes. She was rather upset when she thought about Jiang Jiayi and Ji Qingyun having an clandestine love affair.

"Long time no see, Ji Qingyun."

"Yeah, you …" Sister Gu, are you here to see a patient as well? " In the past few days, Gu Wei hadn't come looking for her. Ji Qingyun had thought that Gu Linxi didn't know about the little matter between him and Jiang Jiayi. Therefore, her little guilty conscience quickly dissipated, and what replaced it was her more lively words.

Gu Linxi didn't respond to Ji Qingyun's words. She looked deeply at Ji Qingyun, as if she wanted to find out from Ji Qingyun what exactly Jiang Jiayi liked about her. Was it a face or a personality? Or perhaps it was because he was tired of herself that he couldn't help but pick wild flowers.

With this thought in mind, Gu Linxi sank into a resentful mood. She thought of how long she had been cheated, and her heart ached.

She actually wanted to be a generous person as well. After all, she was the one currently with Jiang Jiayi. However, she still minded this matter in the end. From all the evidence, she knew that Ji Qingyun and Jiang Jiayi had a relationship, but she still wanted to personally confirm it from Ji Qingyun.

"Are you free now? Why don't we find a place to chat? " Gu Linxi raised an eyebrow and smiled. Even though she was slightly dissatisfied with Ji Qingyun because of Jiang Jiayi, she was already an adult and knew that she had to properly control her emotions. Furthermore, Ji Qingyun was not the only one who had done this.

Ji Qingyun pondered for a moment and then gave a definite answer. In her heart, she could faintly guess why Gu Linxi had sought her out. But Jiang Jiayi had already been dead for quite a number of years, so it wasn't as if she couldn't really face Gu Linxi. Even though she was apologetic about the past, he should have long been buried together with Jiang Jiayi.

There was a coffee shop near the hospital. Gu Linxi and Ji Qingyun walked into this coffee shop together. After ordering two cups of coffee, the two of them sat down face to face. At this time of day, there weren't many customers in this shop, so it was a good place to chat.

After tasting a mouthful of hot coffee, Gu Linxi placed the cup back into its original position and gently stirred it. She was thinking how she should talk to Ji Qingyun.

"Sister Gu, you want to know about the matter between me and Brother Jiang, right?" Ji Qingyun could not stand such a depressing atmosphere. She did not want to hide anything from him. She had already expended a lot of effort to deal with the matter of being able to secretly chat with Jiang Jiayi while right in front of his eyes.

Gu Linxi felt as if the coffee in her mouth had become more and more bitter. It seemed that the sweetness of the coffee in this shop wasn't very good. After pouring the whole packet of sugar beside him into her coffee cup, Gu Linxi stirred the coffee once again.

Gu Linxi's cold gaze landed on Ji Qingyun's body as she stopped her stirring movements. Under Gu Jingxi's gaze, Ji Qingyun felt somewhat uneasy and a little uneasy. She felt that she hadn't truly let Gu Linxi down. Although Gu Linxi had known Jiang Jiayi before this, she was the one Jiang Jiayi had loved. They had merely met each other on the spot.

Love, there was never a saying of first come first serve, she had already wronged herself enough at that time. He was clearly his boyfriend, but he couldn't be righteously identified as his girlfriend. Thinking of this, Ji Qingyun felt as if she had never been wrong about this.
