Gu Lingqian's words were like frost in July, freezing to the marrow on a sweltering day!
It took Xia Yinian a long while to fully digest his words!
A shadow cast over her heart, leaving her feeling cold and uneasy.
To bury everyone at the Yong'an Orphanage along with her, given his status as the Young Master of the Gu Family, wouldn't be difficult.
Xia Yinian was truly panicked, deeply unsettled.
The chill in the depths of Gu Lingqian's eyes had already disappeared into his habitual faint smile.
"Lady Xia just needs to do what she's supposed to, and she won't have to worry about these things."
"Wh-what am I supposed to do?" Xia Yinian's voice was a bit stiff, and awkward.
"Don't date anyone for a year and don't tell my family that you're not my girlfriend."
"Is it... really that simple?" She could hardly believe it.
"Do you think such a matter can be more complicated?"
