Chapter 1190: Leaving (2)
"You had been manipulated back then. It was not entirely your fault." Gu Xijiu replied as she slowly raised her hand towards Long Siye, "I just hope that we are still friends!"
The corners of his mouth raised slightly. He briefly nodded and raised his hand to meet hers. "Still friends!"
