Chu Hao Long didn't care and shook his head. He looked at the little woman next to him and smiled, "The reason why I saved you is because a woman said that if I don't save you, you will never care about me. So, the person you should be thanking isn't me."

Chen Zhenxuan subconsciously looked at Gu Manxue, who was beside him. He frowned, but his eyes were also filled with grief. "Xiaoxue, are you two already together?"

"Nope." Gu Qingxue quickly replied. Her emotions were in complete disarray, and she didn't know what to do. She didn't want to see Chen Zhenxuan's expression, but how could she recover her feelings?

"You guys go ahead, I'll leave first." He didn't want to put any pressure on Gu Manxue. He had made room for them to talk, so that Gu Manxue wouldn't be so hesitant.

Gu Manxue held his hand with a face full of anxiety, "You're leaving?"

"I'll be waiting for you in A City." Chu Haolong didn't hesitate to grab her face and look at her deeply. In the end, he didn't kiss her and only smiled at her before leaving.

The two of them were the only ones left in the huge ward. Gu Qingxue suddenly felt that the air was very heavy, so heavy that she couldn't breathe, and it was more of a feeling of fear.

"Let's go for a walk." Chen Zhenxuan opened his mouth and walked out without waiting for her to agree.

The air outside was very fresh. Gu Qingxue followed behind him, and the two of them walked apart. It was like she was a child and would always be Chen Zhenxuan's follower.

The clear and cold morning had a hint of coldness to it. Gu Manxue, who was following behind him, could not help but sneeze. Following that, an embarrassed expression appeared on her face.

Chen Zhenxuan took off his clothes and draped it over her body. This kind of action was almost subconscious. It didn't seem to go through any mental processes, but rather, it was directly filtered out. He knew that this was the right thing to do.

"There's a milk tea shop in the front, do you still want some watermelon milk tea?" Chen Zhenxuan's voice was low and steady, reassuring everyone.

Gu Ruoyun nodded, as if he understood everything about her, her habits, her temper, anything she didn't like, he knew.

Just love? Did he love her? Or did she still love him?

His mind unconsciously thought of Chu Haolong. That feeling of warmth came over, his broad back, and that warm embrace. Most importantly, it made his heart beat faster.

When she came back to her senses, a cup of fragrant milk tea was already in her hand. They continued to walk forward, but Chen Zhenxuan had no intention of speaking.

"Zhenxuan, what do you have to say to me?" Gu Manxue asked after taking a sip.

"Xiao Xue, do you still love me?" Chen Zhenxuan suddenly asked and went straight to the point.

Gu Manxue stopped walking and just looked at his back. All the thoughts in her heart crumbled at that moment. Love, or not. It was clearly only three words, but no matter what, she could not say it, nor could she say it.

Chen Zhenxuan stopped and looked at her. He chuckled and continued to ask, "You're in love with Chen Zhenxuan?"

Gu Manxue suddenly raised her head and met his cold eyes. For a moment, it was as if someone had seen through her thoughts, and she was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do.

His eyes instantly became dejected and he sighed. "Actually, I should have thought of this long ago."

"Zhenxuan, I …"

"Don't explain. I understand. He's a good person. If he bullies you in the future, come find me. I'll help you take revenge!" Chen Zhenxuan smiled and continued to walk forward.

The two walked on, one in front and one behind, as if nothing had happened.

"Little Snow, to be honest, because of the matter between your mother and my father in the past, I really did hate you." Chen Zhenxuan sighed, regret filling his eyes. "At first, I thought that if you didn't show up, we would have been a happy family."

"I'm sorry."

"Don't say you're sorry. It's not your fault. Furthermore, my mother has been going too far with you all these years. Xiao Xue, I truly like you." Chen Zhenxuan laughed when he said the last sentence.

What was the point of saying it now? Would he still be able to win her over?

So it really was, he suddenly lost something that he did not cherish before, then he felt regret. He really regretted it now, why didn't he cherish it then and use the so-called emotional entanglement to tie it down?

Could he still hold her hand?

"Little Snow, can you give me another chance?"

Gu Ruoyun froze for a moment. She stared blankly at Chen Zhenxuan, the corners of her lips curling up into a faint smile.

This smile caused Chen Zhenxuan to tense up. Then, as if he had realized something, he released his hand resentfully and softly said, "I'm sorry."

"Zhenxuan, thank you for taking care of me for so many years. It's just that I really can't give you love." Gu Ruoyun looked at him apologetically as a gentle smile flashed in her eyes.

"Love, what do you feel when you're with him?" Chen Zhenxuan asked, unwilling to give up.

The corner of Gu Manxue's mouth curled up. She thought about it for a long time before speaking, "It must be the feeling of her heart pounding. If I'm with him, I'll be nervous."

"Thump! Thump! Thump!" Chen Zhenxuan dejectedly said. Once again, his eyes dimmed. It seemed that he really couldn't afford to give such a feeling.

In their world, Gu Manxue acted like a mere follower. When had he ever given her love? In the end, it was still her fault.

"I really regret it. Why didn't I cherish you before?" Chen Zhenxuan shook his head, revealing his disappointment to her.

Gu Manxue was stunned for a moment before she smiled, "So, in the future, you have to cherish that girl who likes you and loves you."

"I will." Chen Zhenxuan smiled and held her hand, warming it, as if holding it for the last time.

Gu Ruoyun did not refuse him. The way they got along was always the same. Silently, she continued chasing after him.

Until she met Chu Hao Long, that was her biggest change. Although she didn't know how difficult it would be to continue with Chu Hao Long, she still hoped that everyone she cared about would live a good life.

No matter if it was Chen Zhenxuan or Aunt Wang, they both had to be fine.

However, the Chu Clan...

Gu Manxue frowned. Could she really be relieved? Complete acceptance? She had to face that person every day?

She wasn't sure if she would go crazy from the torture. Just thinking about it made her hair stand on end.

The two of them decided to return in the morning of the next day. Gu Qingxue had been waiting in the ward the entire time, she hadn't slept to take care of the two of them last night, but today she couldn't take it anymore and had actually fallen asleep as she leaned back in her chair.

Chen Zhenxuan carefully carried her onto the bed. As he looked at her sleeping face, his eyes became more profound, and his unwillingness to let go once again welled up.

From then on, the person in front of him would no longer be able to chase after him. His heart was empty and empty. Losing her would truly be too painful, and he would no longer be able to sleep.

Early in the morning, when Gu Ruoyun woke up and found herself on the sickbed, her face immediately turned red.

"Did you carry me up last night?"

"You are tired and need some rest." Chen Zhenxuan packed his luggage with a serious expression on his face. "We're going back. Will we meet again in the future?"

"Of course, I still have to go see Aunt Wang. By the way, is Aunt Wang alright at home?" After all, Aunt Wang's eyes were not good. What if something were to happen to her?

"No, my mother is very independent and will take good care of herself. This time I came out with her permission." Chen Zhenxuan replied indifferently, his tone clearly showing his distance.

This kind of feeling made Gu Ruoyun feel lost. She always felt a little sad.

The two of them would never return to the way it was before, even if they were siblings.

Gu Qingxue stared blankly at him as he worked and sighed, "Zhenxuan, why are we like this? You really don't blame me? I blame myself. I'm not a good woman at all. "

"Why do you say that?" Chen Zhenxuan lowered his head and asked in a low voice.

"I feel like I'm in the wrong. We are clearly together, but I fell in love with Chu Hao Long. I really …" Gu Ruoyun's eyes reddened, not knowing how to continue.

It was as if she had done something wrong, causing Chen Zhenxuan to feel sad. She really couldn't bear to do it, but she was unable to stop herself.

There were some things that could not be changed, and could not be changed after experiencing it.

"Why think so much? Love is not about pity, it's about feeling. You and I are just friends, or maybe kinship is more. I know all that. " After saying this, Chen Zhenxuan's heart felt uncomfortable.

To Gu Ruoyun, he was a close relative, but to him, he was different.

How could he forget about Gu Manxue, the woman who had lived in his heart for so long?

"You really don't blame me?" Gu Qingxue's brows were covered in tears as she looked expectantly at Chen Zhenxuan.

Chen Zhenxuan smiled at her and shook his head. "No, because it's you, it's not."

She still couldn't hold it in and cried out. How much courage did she need to part with their feelings? This man that she had known for almost ten years, when she said that it was only family, she could clearly see the sadness in his eyes.

He loved her, she knew that. She could feel that in the end, she was still that sinner. The bad guy had hurt Chen Zhenxuan.

"Don't think too much into it, pack up. We should go back." Chen Zhenxuan smiled and rubbed her hair, his eyes filled with a gentle light, full of love.

"Well, don't rub my hair like you're a child." Gu Ruoyun pouted, her words sounding dissatisfied. However, Chen Zhenxuan could tell that she was acting like a spoiled child towards him, as if she had gone back to her childhood.

At that time, he always liked to tease her. Although she was angry every time, she could still feel her happiness because he was a bad person and rarely played with her. Most of the time, she would always follow his footsteps.
