Why did he like Gu Linxi? This was something that was difficult to answer. He had known Gu Lin Xi for such a long time, if he really wanted to find the reason why he liked Gu Lin Xi back then, he would still be able to find a trace of him. However, such matters were not suitable for him to discuss with Gu Linxi, as they were difficult to explain.

"Love at first sight." Xie Siqiang's words couldn't be considered perfunctory. Even if he was searching for traces of his first love, he would still choose to use these four words to explain himself. At a certain point in time, he coincidentally met Gu Linxi, causing his feelings to go deeper and deeper into obscurity. It was like a secret arrangement. He had fallen in love.

There had to be a reason why he liked someone. Good, gentle, or strong, for example, but what did she have? Was it just because of love at first sight a little sloppy? While thinking like this, there was a trace of sweetness in Gu Linxi's heart. She felt that she might really be in love. At first, she didn't feel like she was in a relationship with Xie Si Er, but more of it was a feeling of living a life.

But today, she felt a little bit of love. Even though he found the words love at first sight somewhat unbelievable, he was still very happy in his heart.

Xie Siqian saw the look in Gu Linxi's eyes from the small mirror in the car and couldn't help but feel a jolt in her heart. He had known Gu Linxi for far too long. He was extremely familiar with the look in Gu Linxi's eyes at this moment. It was the look that Gu Linxi usually gave Jiang Jiayi when she looked at Jiang Jiayi. Xie Siqiang was so shocked by her gaze that he almost lost control of the steering wheel. He found it hard to believe her own eyes.

A wave of joy filled his heart. Did this mean that Gu Linxi's heart had already begun to have a place of her own? Xie Siqian was like a piece of dry land that finally found hope. This feeling could not be described with words. After waiting for such a long time, she finally saw a trace of feelings for him that Gu Linxi had developed. How could she not be wild with joy?

A hint of confusion suddenly flashed through Gu Lin Xi's eyes. Had she forgotten something just now? Yes, she had forgotten. She had forgotten that moment just now when she was throbbing because of Xie Kui.

All of this wasn't something that Xie Siqian had missed out on. There seemed to have been some fluctuations of energy coming from Gu Linxi's body, and then the look in her eyes returned to how it used to be. It was as if what she had just seen was just an illusion. At this moment, the eyes that Gu Linxi was looking at him with didn't seem much different from the eyes that Gu Ruoyun had when she was looking at him. They lacked the important emotion of love.

Slightly puzzled, Gu Linxi couldn't quite remember what Xie Si Er had just said. She frowned. It was something that had just happened, how could she not remember?

"What did you just say?" Gu Linxi rubbed her temples. She couldn't seem to remember exactly what she had asked Xie Sisi.

Everything that had happened since they got on the car was like a silent movie. Not knowing what had happened to him, Gu Xiangxi wore a puzzled expression on his face.

The car stopped to the side for the time being, and Xie Siqie walked closer to Gu Linxi as she lifted her hand and ran it through his soft hair. His face was close to Gu Linxi's, and at a place that Gu Linxi couldn't see, his eyes were moist. A man didn't easily shed tears, and Xie Siqiang didn't want to show this kind of expression in front of Gu Linxi either. What should he do? He didn't know what to do either. Now, Xie Siqian finally understood why it was impossible for him to be with Gu Linxi.

Even though Gu Linxi's words to the Main System had this meaning, Xie Siqiang had always thought that there was always a chance of survival. Now that he had encountered this scene, he seemed to be able to give up her unrealistic idea of spending all her time in the dark. After all, she was too young and too conceited. How could she possibly think that she could solve this predicament?

What Xie Siqian understood was that he had already seen through it. Even if Gu Linxi had been moved by him and a trace of affection had finally arisen within him, it would still be erased in the end. This was because with this strict instruction coming from Gu Linxi, the person she loved had to be Jiang Jiayi. Only Jiang Jiayi was allowed. As long as she disobeyed this order, her memories would be erased, and she would only remain in the love of Jiang Jiayi.

Gu Linxi didn't know what had happened, but she felt an aura of grief and despair spreading from Xie Siqian's body. She wanted to say something to comfort Xie Sisi, but when she held her hand behind her back, she couldn't find the words to say. She kept having the feeling that she had done something wrong that caused Xie Si Er to reveal such grief and despair.

Something seemed to have dripped onto his shoulder, and it felt a little chilly. Gu Linxi knew that it was Xie Sizui's tears. This single tear caused Gu Lin Xi to feel an inexplicable sense of weakness in his heart. What had she done to make Xie Si Er so sad? A sour and sour feeling spread to his four limbs from within Gu Linxi's chest. She felt as if she had been infected by Xie Si's emotions and felt an inexplicable sense of sorrow.

"Did I do something wrong?" Gu Linxi lowered her eyelids, feeling helpless as she whispered into Xie Sisi's ear.

Xie Siqiang blinked, trying to control his tears. He held Gu Lingxi in his arms, unwilling to let him see his face. Her lips lightly caressed Gu Linxi's earlobes. With a slightly hoarse voice, Xie Siqiang whispered into Gu Linxi's ear, "No, you didn't do anything wrong."

No one was wrong. If he really said something wrong, then it was all his fault.

Hearing Xie Siqian's words, the depression in Gu Lingxi's heart still hadn't been resolved in the slightest. Her small face was filled with puzzlement. She felt even more guilty upon hearing Xie Siqiang's words, and even more sorry for him. Was it because of Jiang Jiayi? Was it because she had been alone with Jiang Jiayi that she felt guilty?

If that was really the case, then she wouldn't have to see Jiang Jiayi in the future. Having his originally low level of feelings towards Xie Siqian cleared, Gu Linxi felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart when he thought of the fact that he couldn't see Jiang Jiayi, as if something was missing. However, this sort of feeling, when compared to the guilt he felt for Xie Siqian, was instead something that Gu Linxi was willing to endure, and not something he was willing to endure.

"I'm sorry." Gu Lin Xi felt that he owed Xie Siqian something like this, so he whispered into Xie Siqian's ear.

"It doesn't matter."

It really doesn't matter, because you're Gu Linxi, so even if you're like this, it doesn't matter. He can still smile and face up to this reality.
