This farce ended with Huo Niannian's agility.

Huo Niannian and Gu Tingshen no longer had any reason to stay behind. On the way back, Gu Tingshen and Huo Niannian sat in the same carriage together, and since they were seated at the back of the carriage, Huo Niannian could almost hear Gu Tingshen's panting sound.

"Since you know it's a tiger's cave and a dragon's lagoon, why did you still come?"

The reason why Gu Tingshen agreed to it, was his own reason, but Huo Niannian followed him back to the Old Mansion without saying a word, he did not know the reason.

Outside the window was a mountain and a river, with a red wall surrounding her. Huo Niannian stared at the scenery outside the window for a long time.

"Do you believe me if I say I miss you?"

"What do you think?"

She knew she couldn't fool him. Huo Niannian laughed bitterly, a trace of loneliness could not help but appear in her eyes. But Gu Tingshen did not see it, because she kept looking out of the window, her voice was indifferent, "If they want to harm me, no matter where I hide, they would think of ways, so this kind of thing cannot be avoided."

"Oh?" That was an interesting explanation.

Gu Tingshen turned his head to look at Huo Niannian. Other than her pretty face, she was actually quite smart and understood the situation.

The first time he saw her, Gu Tingshen had a strange feeling … This girl was definitely not an ordinary person. Although she was born into poverty, she had an innate aura about her that he couldn't be wrong about.

Just like him.

"Huo Niannian, do you hate me then?" Gu Tingshen said almost without any reason.

Huo Niannian was startled, she turned to look at him in shock, only to see that Gu Tingshen's pair of pitch black eyes contained a hint of ice. She pretended not to understand. "What do you hate? Should I hate you? "

"Heh."

Gu Tingshen didn't want to continue this topic, so he had brought up this topic without any reason. However, Huo Niannian merely smiled to herself, "Let me think … Hate you for dragging me into the war of the Wealthy Class? Hate you for making me the target of ridicule for the netizens? Or hate you... Take me. "

Huo Niannian said her last sentence as if she was telling the truth.

However, Gu Tingshen's heart suddenly shook.

The fingers on his knees clenched. The color in his eyes gradually turned darker. That's right, he wanted her. He wanted her, the most precious thing of a woman. More importantly … He actually knew how to taste.

"That should be hateful." Huo Niannian said calmly.

It was as if she didn't see the deep look in Gu Tingshen's eyes or his face that was gradually turning cold. She only said, "But as long as you help me find someone who knows this pendant and help me investigate my background, I won't hate you."

"..." "Oh?"

"If that's the case, then we are doing a fair deal. It's even." She suddenly laughed, and the corner of her mouth rose slightly. After that, she hooked up a beautiful and bright smile, causing Gu Tingshen to be dumbstruck for a moment.

Huo Niannian suddenly waved her hand in front of his face, "Is this answer satisfactory to Director Gu?"

"Not satisfied."

Gu Tingshen said coldly. He refused to admit that he was blinded by her just now, but changed the subject. "Are you sure that the pendant on your body is yours, and not someone else's?"

"What do you mean? You mean I stole it? "

The atmosphere suddenly changed as Huo Niannian reached out to caress her pendant. That was the only thing that her granny had left him, but Gu Tingshen's method of questioning couldn't help but cause her to become suspicious.

Seemingly sensing that she had lost control of herself, Huo Niannian said awkwardly, "Sorry."
