That year, when Gu Yuanli spoke of wanting her to comply to one condition, she had even thought that he would want her to marry her. Even if that was the case, she was willing to do so. Throughout their interactions, the way he looked at her was really hard to decipher. Sometimes, he seemed to admire her; sometimes, he seemed to love her; sometimes, he even seemed to… despise her!
The only thing that she had not predicted was that she would fall in love with Ye Ling someday and even reach this state.
"You don't have to give me a reply now," Gu Yuanli said.
"I can give you an answer now." Shen Qianshu smiled. Her smile was clear and bright like a flower at dawn. "Shifu, I promise you that I will never marry Ye Ling. As long as you don't harm my family, I will stick to my words for life."
