699 What Kind of Relationship Do We Have? (2)_1

This reminded her of four years ago.

This scene was much like the one four years ago when she saw Gu Liancheng again.

Back then, she had no confidence, and mustered the courage to ask him for money. The look in his eyes was just as indifferent, and his tone was even colder. If it weren't for Jiujiu's pneumonia, which required urgent medical expenses, she might have been scared off by him.

The years that followed taught her that Gu Liancheng was just that kind of person, never showing any extra emotion to strangers. The reason he suddenly helped her with gentleness five years ago was because he felt guilty for what she had gone through, for which he bore some responsibility.

Once she understood his past, she understood the reason for his coldness.

Whether it was because she was present or not, Li Sinian's look at Xiao Man was not particularly gentle, let alone when he looked at her. His even colder and more terrifying gaze than Gu Liancheng's made Eleven take a step back.
