Gu Xiaonuan offered her future happiness as a guarantee, which Si Yuchen considered to be the sincerest form of assurance from her.
If she couldn't commit to this extent, Si Yuchen wouldn't have allowed her to witness the scene inside the sickroom.
Seeing that Si Yuchen still had no intention of taking her to uncover the secret, Gu Xiaonuan immediately refused to comply.
"I've staked my future happiness as a guarantee, you can't fool me," she protested.
Gu Xiaonuan had scarcely resolved to act when she showed her sincerity, so why was Si Yuchen still hesitating?
Si Yuchen glanced at her sideways, "Prepare yourself mentally."
Gu Xiaonuan puffed out her chest, "Nothing can scare me; bring it on."
She went with the intention of uncovering Si Yuchen's secret, but his warning made Gu Xiaonuan feel as if she wasn't going to unveil a mystery, but embark on an adventure.
