Chapter 472: Need to Seek Help from Someone
Upstairs, Gu Ling doggedly engaged Su Hui until she began talking about her past, including how she came to move into the old house.
Listening to Su Hui, Gu Ling found herself repeatedly taken aback, unable to believe the coincidences in Su Hui’s story, no wonder Liu Yao was shocked after hearing it.
Sorting through the details, Liu Yao had lived in the old house with Gu Fan, and Gu Ling during their childhood. The two families had a good relationship, even arranging a childhood betrothal between Liu Yao and Gu Fan. Liu Yao later moved away, not keeping in touch with the others, leaving the childhood betrothal to lapse. This should have been a simple matter, but as they all grew up, events took dramatic turns.
Liu Yao interfered with the relationship between Yuan Cheng and Su Hui, forcing Su Hui to move out of Yuan Cheng’s place. By a twist of fate, Su Hui ended up living with Gu Fan.
This was the first cruel joke played by fate. If Liu Yao had not moved out, Su Hui would not have moved in. Instead of Liu Yao and Gu Fan living under the same roof, it became Su Hui and Gu Fan sharing a household.
Next came a romantic relationship between Gu Fan and Leng Le, Liu Yao’s good friend. One could say this was a grand jest by the heavens.
Furthermore, due to Su Hui and Gu Fan’s investigation, Liu Yao was forced to flee abroad, where she met Gu Ling. Needless to say, this encounter was another twist of fate.
After thinking for quite some time, Gu Ling was finally able to sort out the connections between everyone. The complexity was surprising and she hadn’t expected that her brother, Gu Fan, had been involved in such romantic entanglements.
But what Su Hui was most concerned about was Gu Fan’s true intentions and why he invited Liu Yao in the first place. What favor did he need from Liu Yao? Was it really just about locating Leng Le?
