Shen Ruo foolishly stood there, watching him without making any move. Gu Kai's gaze merely swept over her indifferently, showing neither surprise nor disdain.
It was as if, in his eyes, she was just a stranger.
Shen Ruo felt a twinge of pain in her heart.
She tried to steady her emotions, but as he stepped closer, her heartbeat quickened more and more.
When he walked by, she opened her mouth, but he passed by her as if she were invisible, sparing not even a glance.
At that moment, Shen Ruo felt her heart plummet to the depths.
"Gu Kai..." Her mouth reacted faster than her brain, and she called out to him.
The man's footsteps halted almost subconsciously, as if he had been prepared to stop all along.
He turned back slowly to look at her, his expression cold and calm.
"Miss Shen, what is it?" he asked.
Because of his detached and indifferent tone, Shen Ruo felt somewhat displeased.
She glanced at the woman beside him and said to him, "Can I talk to you alone?"
