278 Narrow Road Meeting (2)_1

Wen Hua watched for a while, recalling the scene from that day, his eyes somber. He said nothing and turned to leave.

After some time had passed, Che Huan looked up to find her uncle gone.

She turned to Huo Jinnan, "You..."

Huo Jinnan took her hand and placed it back on his arm, walking with her toward the elevator.

Just as they reached the ground floor, Che Huan received a text message from her uncle, simple and to the point, "Gu Jizhou is at the hotel entrance."

Che Huan lowered her head to read the message and before she could react, she looked up and locked eyes with Gu Jizhou, reflexively turning to glance at the man beside her.

Huo Jinnan wrapped an arm around Che Huan's waist and headed straight for the revolving door.

Through that layer of relationship, feeling Gu Jizhou's icy gaze, each step felt like a mermaid walking on knife edges.

Instinctively, she clung tighter to Huo Jinnan's arm. Would there be a day when she, like a mermaid, would turn into foam?
