Jiang Jiayi retreated two steps back from the force of the blow. He looked at Gu Linxi with disbelief, looking at him like an injured kitten. However, she really couldn't let Jiang Jiayi and himself continue to be alone like this. Regardless of what kind of past he and Jiang Jiayi had had, all of that was already in the past. Besides, when he was hospitalized, where was Jiang Jiayi?

Gu Linxi was completely able to sense the kindness Gu Wei and Xie Siqiang possessed towards her. On the contrary, this Jiang Jiayi who had appeared out of nowhere was somewhat suspicious. Showing an affectionate side, but why didn't she appear before that? Besides, there was no trace of Jiang Jiayi in her house. The only explanation was that she and Jiang Jiayi had a short relationship.

"No matter what relationship we had, I don't remember you anymore. And I already have someone I want to spend the rest of my life with. " Even though these words might be a little cruel, Gu Linxi didn't want to use these words to delay anything. The most hurtful thing was that she didn't want to interrupt them. She didn't want to drag her feet, and she didn't want to give Jiang Jiayi even the slightest bit of hope. Most importantly, she also didn't want to give herself any hope of defrauding.

These words of Gu Linxi completely stirred up Jiang Jiayi. He absolutely would not allow Gu Linxi to be with Xie Siqian. Some things weren't things that could be written off just by saying that she had already forgotten them. Those feelings from the past could not be let go just because of amnesia. Moreover, other than him, no one else was allowed to make a choice.

Because she owed him that much.

These words suddenly appeared in Jiang Jiayi's mind. Instantly, the anger in his mind dissipated by a bit. He also didn't know why he suddenly felt that Gu Linxi owed him. However, if one were to carefully calculate it, it was not wrong. Isn't it a matter of course for a father to repay his daughter? Gu Chenzhou owed what to their family, so it wasn't too much for Gu Linxi to pay them back.

In the instant their gazes met, Gu Linxi only felt that Jiang Jiayi was a little scary. She couldn't help but reconnect that pair of eyes with the ghost from last night. Cold intent continuously arose in her heart as Gu Xiangxi quickly took out the key from her pocket.

While Jiang Jiayi was still in a daze, Gu Linxi opened the door. The sound of the door opening caused Jiang Jiayi to react. When he saw that Gu Linxi wanted to escape, he immediately blocked the door, not allowing it to close. Gu Linxi desperately wanted to close this door. This way, she would be able to prevent herself from being in contact with Jiang Jiayi. However, Gu Linxi's strength was slightly weaker than Jiang Jiayi's after all.

This act was just like a tug-of-war competition, but in the end, it ended with Gu Linxi losing. Gu Linxi also knew that being alone in a place with someone she didn't know was not a good idea. Since Jiang Jiayi had barged in, there was no harm in giving it to him for the time being. Taking advantage of the time he had left, Gu Linxi dashed out of the door.

He had long since predicted that Gu Linxi would act in such a manner, and before she could even take a step forward, Jiang Jiayi had already blocked her path. Pulling Gu Linxi inside, Jiang Jiayi closed the door. That single ray of light was blocked outside the door. Gu Linxi could not help but feel her heart begin to beat chaotically. In the darkness, she couldn't see or clearly see the expression of the person standing in front of him. Gu Linxi couldn't help but retreat two steps away from Jiang Jiayi.

There was a dangerous aura spreading in the air. Gu Linxi was regretting it. She shouldn't have misjudged herself, and she shouldn't have underestimated Jiang Jiayi. A single man and a single woman in a room. In addition, it was in a darkness that had a kind of ambiguous feel to it, causing Gu Xiangxi's nerves to tighten. What she was worried about in her heart was the same as what she was worried about in the same situation as thousands of other girls.

It was too late to regret that the wrong decision had led to such a common situation. Gu Linxi thought that if she could have the time flow around, he definitely wouldn't be in the same room as Jiang Jiayi. This was too dangerous.

"Are you afraid?" Even though he couldn't clearly see Gu Linxi's expression, Jiang Jiayi could feel the nervousness on his face. Gu Linxi's nervous heartbeat and slow, long breathing were exceptionally clear amidst the tranquil and eerie atmosphere. If this didn't show that Gu Linxi was nervous, then Jiang Jiayi wouldn't know what it meant to be nervous.

She didn't like that Gu Linxi would reveal a frightened expression when facing him. Even though he had become a beast race expert before, Gu Xiangxi had never been afraid of him. But why? Why was she so scared and nervous at this moment? He was truly growing more and more disgusted by the feeling of being alienated by Gu Linxi. She had long since gotten used to being the center of attention. Jiang Jiayi was unable to endure such estrangement.

It was clearly such a warm and cold weather, but Gu Linxi felt that it was extremely hot and dry. Sweat slowly rolled down her forehead. The fear in her heart did not dissipate even a little bit. Under this kind of fear, Gu Linxi ignored the reluctance in his heart towards Jiang Jiayi.

He didn't answer Jiang Jiayi's question because it was obvious. How could she not be afraid? No matter who this was placed on, they would feel especially afraid. Gu Linxi felt that even though she hadn't cried out for help, she was already able to maintain her calm. The reason why she didn't call for help was because he didn't want to anger Jiang Jiayi.

The noise from the dancing in the square was so loud that no one could hear him even if he cried out for help. It was just that Jiang Jiayi was even angrier. If a man was truly angry, then the power was not something a weak girl like her could endure. Especially since this man seemed to have some intentions towards his.

Although he didn't hear Gu Linxi's answer, Jiang Jiayi still knew the answer. In the darkness, Gu Linxi seemed to hear Jiang Jiayi sigh. It was a sigh of extreme helplessness. For some reason, upon hearing this sigh, Gu Linxi's originally nervous mood lightened somewhat. Although she couldn't completely relax, he was no longer as nervous as she was just now.

Leaning against the wall, Gu Linxi remembered that there was a light switch on in this position. She didn't want to continue the confrontation with Jiang Jiayi in this darkness. Under such an atmosphere, it was easy for crimes to occur.

There was a sound of a board being pressed down in the air, and then the light illuminated the room. Their eyes had already gotten used to the darkness, but now that they were suddenly faced with such a bright room, they both had a feeling that they weren't used to it. He blinked and slowly got used to the light.

With the aid of the light, Gu Linxi was now completely able to see Jiang Jiayi clearly. And these lights seemed to disperse all the atmosphere that shouldn't have existed. Everything had become so bright, and everything had become so invisible.
