Chapter 377: Various Signs Seem Wrong
"Gu Fan, you..." Leng Le tensed up, her eyes hinting at panic. She hadn’t expected him to uncover her real identity; she didn’t know how to face him now.
Stay composed, stay composed! Leng Le gritted her teeth, straining to control her emotions. Seeing Gu Fan’s calm demeanor, she knew he must have orchestrated all of this in advance.
The big boss couldn’t help but laugh, "You’re quite clever, Gu Fan. Leng Le has been by your side, acting so perfectly, and yet, you’ve still managed to uncover her."
"Can’t help it. Fire cannot be wrapped in paper," Gu Fan shrugged, appearing quite regretful. He added, "Actually, none of this is what I hoped for. But there were just too many suspicious elements forcing my doubts about Leng Le’s identity and her true intentions of getting close to me."
Leng Le was equally puzzled, "How did you realize there was something off about me?"
Gu Fan gave a wry smile, looking rather dispirited, "Let’s start with the first hint. At the Qianye Mausoleum, for the first time, I grappled with a female villain whom I finally defeated. I clearly remember that encounter—it was quite thrilling."
Hearing this, Leng Le silently clenched her jaw. That fight was a humiliation to her. She was clearly superior, yet she got defeated by Gu Fan in such a manner—thinking about it made her angry.
Gu Fan continued: "After that, we got together. This sort of contact was quite ordinary for us. However, what bothered me a lot was that the sensation I had when I defeated that female villain in Qianye Mausoleum—when I had pinned her down—felt remarkably similar to when I held you. I initially thought I was overthinking things."
Leng Le snorted, "What nonsense about sensations being similar; aren’t all women alike in that respect?"
