Gu Nianzhi had never seen Gu Yanran so assured before. She couldn't help the feeling of her heart sinking. However, she managed to keep it hidden from her expression. After being by Huo Shaoheng's side for so many years, Gu Nianzhi had learned that the acquisition of valuable information was impossible without the willingness to take risks. Every single Special Forces operative was capable and daring—taking risks was a normal, everyday occurrence.
After having been around them for so long, Gu Nianzhi had felt their influence.
Therefore, even though she looked at Gu Yanran with extreme confidence, she had already expected Gu Yanran to have something against her—something huge.
She could have called for a stay, which would have prevented Gu Yanran from speaking. However, if she had done that, then the truth might be forever suppressed.
Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her expression was nothing but determined after that.
