Gu Xue's pompous aura evaporated in an instant as if she was a mouse that just spotted a cat. She heavily gulped before finally being able to find her voice. She greeted meekly, "Brother… Brother Yu…"
Gu Yu cocked his head, his inky eyes sweeping over as he asked coldly, "What did you say just now?"
Having been left speechless, Gu Xue shook her head instantly. "I... I didn't say anything, I swear, I didn't!"
She had truly adored and looked up to her cousin Gu Yu, but she was also truly afraid of his icy demeanour. The last time, when he pushed her into the pond, she was ill for half a month.
Gu Yu just gazed at her without saying anything.
A mere second later, Gu Xue backed down, decided to just own up to her mistake, "Brother Yu, I'm sorry. I was wrong, I'm the one who wants to die."
