Ling Tianyou apparently hadn't found anything about his master, which is why he asked her with this attitude.
Gu Ningyue was well aware of this, so she deliberately said those things to annoy him!
Since he cares for Chen Rui in every possible way, why couldn't there be someone important in her heart?
Even if it's just false, she wants to make Ling Tianyou feel uncomfortable for a little while.
She knows her behavior is childish, but seeing Ling Tianyou's frustrated expression makes her unrestrainedly happy.
"More important than me?" Ling Tianyou indeed misunderstood her words, clearly suppressing slight anger while speaking to her.
Gu Ningyue tilted her head slightly and thought for a moment, "As things stand, it is indeed more important than you."
This time, Ling Tianyou said nothing, his expression solemn, with disappointment in his eyes.
Gu Ningyue quietly watched the scenery outside, contemplating what to say if Ling Tianyou got angry.
