Chapter 454: Bad Timing
The night wind is a bit chilly, Su Hui stands on the rooftop, gazing at the night sky with a somber look, filled with a profound sense of melancholy as she sighs quietly.
A moment later, Gu Fan walks up to Su Hui, hands her a can of beer, which she accepts with a smile.
"Don’t blame me for being nosy. No matter how much Zhuo Hang loves you or regrets what happened, if he can avenge his grudge by sacrificing you once, he can do it again a second time. I don’t want to see you get hurt." Gu Fan’s words, although spoken calmly, voice his concern for Su Hui.
Su Hui nods. "I know you’re looking out for me. After hearing about what Zhuo Hang has been through, I almost forgave him. It’s a good thing you’re here."
Seeing Su Hui’s subdued mood, Gu Fan pauses before speaking again. "You’ve dealt with many cases yourself. A lot of people get hurt in love, not just you. For example, me. I was hurt once abroad, and then again on Yuxueyun Mountain, but I’m still here."
At these words, Su Hui can’t help but laugh, "Yes, you’re right! You had it quite bad, the way Leng Le used you, even though you suspected her, you foolishly gambled on that one in a million chance."
"Yes, being too in love with someone can make you a fool, and that’s when you get hurt." Gu Fan responds, sounding a little downcast, trying to establish some camaraderie with Su Hui.
Looking at Gu Fan in his current state, Su Hui tries to comfort him, "Come on, what do you, a man, have to be upset about? Didn’t Lin Xi come back to you? You should be happy, it’s me who really should be upset."
Gu Fan can only offer a bitter smile. "Even though Lin Xi is back with me and it makes me happy, after all, I did really love Leng Le. I poured my heart out for her. It’s not something that I can easily forget. The pain won’t just go away."
