Chapter 32: Her personality was still intact
Meanwhile, Li Lanni held her chin in thought for a while before sitting right back down, opposite Cheng Yu. She pushed her bag aside and placed both of her hands on the table, looking at Cheng Yu right in the eye.
For some reason, Cheng Yu felt chills run down her spine. This kind of look... why did it feel like it bode disaster?
"Cheng Yu, I don’t have any recollection of you." The girl finally spoke after agonizing her friend with the eerie silent gaze.
Cheng Yu was stunned and her heart suddenly thumped against her chest, making her almost unable to breath. "What do you mean?" Was she starting to suspect her motive of getting close to her?
While she was starting to look for a reasonable excuse, Li Lanni spoke again. "But I have decided to trust you."
"Huh?"
What a turn of events. It was about trust now? And Li Lanni even said that she trusted her?
Purely out of curiosity, Cheng Yu ran a hand at the back of her neck, her lips curving into a tiny smile. "How... how could you trust me? You don’t know me that well considering you don’t remember most of your past; and I was not part of that past to begin with."
"Heh. What do I need the past for? I trust you and that’s it. What, do you want to sell me off? In that case, how about I help you count the spoils?"
Although her words sounded very indifferent, that wasn’t the feeling reciprocated in her heart.
She was scared. She was afraid anyone would hurt her, so she didn’t truly trust anyone.
