Long-term entanglement had caused them to develop inexplicable feelings for each other.
But, to forgive him just like that? To pretend as if nothing had happened and date like normal people?
She felt like she couldn't do it...
"We're here." Gu Kai's voice pulled her back to reality, and a trace of panic appeared on Shen Ruo's face.
"Thank you." She hurriedly opened the car door and got out, not wanting him to see her embarrassment.
"I'll pick you up after work."
"Okay." Shen Ruo stopped in her tracks, but didn't turn back. The word 'okay' left her mouth without a second thought, so swiftly that even she was surprised at her own response.
"Ruoruo."
"Huh?" Shen Ruo turned her head slightly, meeting Gu Kai's deep gaze, and she felt her heart skip a beat.
In that moment, she realized a sad truth, she was done for.
Because, she had developed feelings for him.
Gu Kai watched her, silent for a moment, then smiled faintly, "It's alright, go to work."
