Gu Annan’s teacup paused, suspended in mid-air.

His gaze shifted toward Lu Wanwan, serious in a way she had never seen before, devoid of any jest.

His tone was probing, allowing no room for retreat.

Lu Wanwan waited in silence, unsure whether to continue questioning.

But since she had already brought it up, she was not willing to let it go just like that.

It had always been a knot in her heart.

That day, she had gone out with some classmates. Bolstered by a few extra drinks, she had decided to confess her feelings to him formally.

Before that, she felt that Gu Annan had accepted her enough, and there was only a thin veil left unbroken between them.

Why not give it a try? Maybe one more step forward, and he could officially become her boyfriend.

She had already lost a lot of her self-respect because of him and didn’t mind losing it one more time, besides, he couldn’t possibly say no.

It was raining that evening when she sobered up and walked to the apartment Gu Annan stayed in on weekends.

This wasn’t her first visit, and she was quite certain she was the first and only person to have entered his bachelor apartment.

In her heart, she fantasized if she stayed at his apartment, whether he would, like in Japan, stay in the same room but fear even accidentally touching her.

Little did she know, what awaited her was his cold declaration that he never wanted to see her again.

Lu Wanwan could hardly believe her ears, if not for the cruelty in his eyes and his earnest demeanor void of any jokes, she would have thought she had heard wrong.

There was no aftermath; she couldn’t even get an explanation from him because after that day, Gu Annan never appeared at the school again.

The teacher said, ’Gu student has chosen to study abroad and left early.’

In her view, Gu Annan left Manchester because he didn’t want her to cling to him.

Ha, who would cling to him, did he really think she was without any dignity?

"I always thought that even if you didn’t like me that much, you would at least not hate me," Lu Wanwan said deliberately, "Even hate to the extent of leaving the country. Did you think I would cling to you?"

She could have kept these thoughts to herself, as if nothing had happened.

But she was too worried about history repeating itself, no matter how close she thought she was to him, she felt he could become emotionless at any moment.

Lin Yu said today, if Gu Annan didn’t want you, you’d be in a bad way.

Actually, she wasn’t afraid of how bad it would be, but she was afraid she wouldn’t be used to it.

Gu Annan put down the cup in his hand, his gaze falling on the tea inside.

He had never hated her, how could he possibly hate her.

If he could go back, he wouldn’t do it again, would not allow his pride to make him leave so easily.

A sound came from the phone.

He still didn’t respond, took a glance, and his brows immediately furrowed.

Lu Wanwan never received even half a word of response, and yet she saw him first check the messages on his phone.

"You go ahead and eat, I’m not really hungry right now," she said, biting her lip.

Even though this marriage was arranged by elders, she was serious about wanting to be a good Mrs. Gu.

But if they were married and still lacked this basic honesty, if he only did as he pleased whenever he wanted, she couldn’t continue to deceive herself.

Just as Lu Wanwan was about to get up, Gu Annan slid his phone across the table toward her, his dark eyes intensely watching her, his fingers on the screen.
