Gu Dai accepted the candy, the sweet peach flavor melting in her mouth, alleviating the sourness in her heart. She lifted her head and gently smiled at Su Ting.
Song Ling, witnessing Gu Dai's smile, felt a surge of irritation.
Meng Zhi, observing this, felt satisfied. Although he wasn't particularly fond of Su Ting, seeing him counter Song Ling, who had wronged Gu Dai, was enough for him.
The group was heading to Cloud Island, like its name, a small island accessible only by ferry.
Upon seeing the sea, Gu Dai's expression turned pale.
Memories of the past, though years old, vividly flashed in her mind, feeling as if they had happened only yesterday.
Song Ling noticed Gu Dai's reaction, knew that she recalled what happened before, so he moved to comfort her.
However, before he could reach her, Su Ting had already engaged her in conversation, drawing laughter from her.
Song Ling clenched his fists in anger, feeling more like a fool.
