"I know." Gu Nianzhi looked at them from afar. "I'll go in after they've left."
Gu Yanran, Ye Xuan, and Gu Xiangwen looked more like a family when they were standing together. Gu Nianzhi felt like an outcast. However, she did not want anyone to know, because she felt disgraceful thinking like that…
"You don't like them?"
"No, but I don't exactly love them, either," Gu Nianzhi answered truthfully. She turned around to look at Chen Lie, her eyes big, black, and sparkly, just like two black grapes. They looked so sweet and attractive. Then, she shook her head. "I'm not close with them."
"You'll get to know them better as time passes." Chen Lie could only comfort her this way. He patted her shoulder and was about to leave when Gu Nianzhi called out to him, "Brother Chen, how is my father, exactly?"
