Chapter 1198: Cancelling the Engagement with a Disabled Person (2)
Guh Siyi almost spat blood from the choking resentment in her heart. Her lips tugged awkwardly into a smile, and a trace of confusion flickered in her eyes.
"Miss An, didn’t you lose your memory? How is it that you still remember Ye Lin? ..."
"Hmm, I did lose my memory. But I can’t forget the people who’ve treated me well, just as I can’t forget my enemies."
Guh Siyi’s heart trembled. Taking advantage of Gu Yelin’s lack of attention, she shot An Yiqing a glare so subtly it went unnoticed before forcing an awkward laugh: "Miss An, you’re truly humored. Even when you can’t see, your attitude remains so optimistic. Oh! Compared to you, Miss An, I pale in comparison! Since I was a child, I’ve been stubborn and refused to cause trouble for others. I once mentioned casually during a chat with my grandfather—if one day I became a useless person, I would absolutely leave the person I love most. Unlike you, Miss An, I lack your alluring beauty, and without my mobility, I’d feel overwhelmingly inferior. Especially when staying beside someone I love, having to rely on them every moment, what meaning would there even be in becoming a burden?"
Guh Siyi glanced at An Yiqing’s emotionless little face, pursing her lips into a laugh: "Ah, look at me running my mouth unchecked. Miss An and I are different. You’re young and beautiful, and even if you’ve lost your memory or can’t see, Ye Lin has no choice but to remain unwavering in his devotion, most certainly out of duty and principles. Otherwise, those tongues wagging outside wouldn’t let the Gu Family off easily. Miss An, you can just focus on recovering peacefully, and leave everything outside for Ye Lin to handle with assurance."
Guh Siyi’s words, one after another, all sounded painstakingly considerate of An Yiqing, so much so that there was no fault to be found in them. The smile on An Yiqing’s face grew brighter, yet the coldness in her eyes deepened.
"Miss Guh, your comfort makes sense. With Ah Lin here, I naturally feel at ease. Some things, though I might not remember, certain emotions remain unchanged. Thank you, Miss Guh, for going out of your way today. Please relay my gratitude to Family Head Guh, and let him know that once I recover, I will absolutely visit him personally. Aunt Li, see Miss Guh out, please!"
Aunt Li pressed her lips together secretly, fearing she might burst into laughter, and opened the villa’s front door before turning back to look at Guh Siyi.
"Miss Guh, this way, please."
Being suddenly hit by An Yiqing’s inexplicable dismissal order, Guh Siyi let out a cold laugh, unwillingly casting another glance at Gu Yelin, who didn’t give her a shred of attention, before leaving begrudgingly.
