Cassie's clear, crystal-like eyes were streaming with warmth.
The instant Gu Xinzhou looked up, she saw his eyes filled with laughter.
It was as if he was silently telling her, "Don't mind others, do not look at unhappy scenes, just look at me more, think of me more, and I will always be by your side."
Gu Xinzhou understood what Cassie meant.
But she was not willing to use him as a shield.
She smiled lightly and whispered softly, "Enjoy your meal!"
Gu Xinzhou bowed her head and earnestly ate the steak that Cassie had cut for her, savoring each bite.
Cassie considerately pushed the drink toward her.
Watching this interaction, Song Zhen felt an excruciating pain as if his heart was being dug out!
When Gu Xinfei linked her arm with his, he didn't feel it.
Because all his attention was on Gu Xinzhou.
But when Gu Xinfei, linking his arm, walked towards the table where Gu Yibo and others were, and his arm was pulled, he realized what Gu Xinfei had done.
His handsome and upright figure stood there, unmoving.
He lifted his arm high, dodging Gu Xinfei's small hand. When she looked at him full of confusion, he unceremoniously whispered sharply, "Don't touch me!"
Gu Xinfei's delicate makeup instantaneously hardened!
Song Zhen didn't glance at her again and stepped past her, walking a few steps forward.
Standing before Gu Yibo and others, he said gently, "Uncle Gu, Zhouzhou, I brought Xinfeng here because there is something I need to make clear to her.
I will remember Uncle Gu's admonitions and will solve all obstacles!"
As he said the last line, his deep gaze turned toward Cassie.
Clearly, in Song Zhen's eyes, Cassie was also one of the obstacles to being with Gu Xinzhou.
Gu Xinzhou frowned in displeasure, "Song Zhen, are you sick?"
Having hurt one sister, do you want to hurt another sister as well?
Dragging Gu Xinfei here to discuss these matters, how is she supposed to get along with her sister in the future?
Memories of her sister always protecting her and guiding her rushed to her mind.
Thinking about what Gu Xinfei herself said, that she had fallen for Song Zhen.
Gu Xinzhou couldn't bear to see her sister sad and troubled!
Gu Yibo, however, pressed down on Gu Xinzhou's small hand and said gently, "Actually, there are some misunderstandings between you and Song Zhen.
Song Zhen also pursued Xinfeng for so many years because of these misunderstandings.
Some things, once mistaken, should be clarified promptly.
After everything is explained, how you choose next will be another issue for you to consider.
Zhouzhou, do not rush, take it one step at a time."
Gu Yibo spoke from experience.
If he hadn't started an absurd marriage back then, he wouldn't have lived with lifelong regrets concerning the woman he loved.
So after hearing the story about the small attic from Song Zhen, he fully understood the pain and remorse Song Zhen felt for having recognized the wrong person for many years.
Fortunately for Song Zhen, he still had the chance to set things right.
What about him?
The woman he loved had passed away many years ago, he didn't even have the chance to kneel at her grave and repent!
Gu Yibo didn't want Gu Xinzhou to have regrets, and since Song Zhen was originally in love with Gu Xinzhou, this fact also had to be clearly explained to Gu Xinfei!
Only by making it clear, could he truly be responsible for both girls!
Gu Xinfei felt a vague unease!
Listening to her father's tone about returning to the original position, what did this mean?
Could it be that the matter of her not being Gu Yibo's biological daughter was now gradually becoming known to everyone?
