A tremendous restlessness surged in Gu Ran's heart.
Chen Ke, well, that could be let slide since at the time both were deeply drunk, and it was the first time for each of them. Gu Ran did harbor some affection for her.
But what about Liang Qing?
They were not close, she was sober, she was still friends with Su Qing, and yet she dressed up and made up to look like Chen Ke...
Was it Chen Ke, or was it Su Qing?
Gu Ran suddenly remembered, back when he was in Xianggen, he had also mistaken Chen Ke for Su Qing—and that's why he crossed the line.
Su Qing and Chen Ke had some similarities in a hazy blur, perhaps Liang Qing was neither Su Qing nor Chen Ke, but had seized on the similarities between the two.
With just that bit of similarity, Gu Ran naturally mistook her for 'someone who might be here.'
Liang Qing murmured softly, and although she was exhausted, she could not expose her subconscious and still brought herself to wake up.
