Ji Yu sat in the room, her mind constantly preoccupied with thoughts of Gu Qixiao.
But since there was no way to contact Gu Qixiao for the time being, all she could do was sulk.
She encountered the same maid as last time, but this time the woman was noticeably more cautious.
"Why do you think it has to be me?" Ji Yu suddenly asked.
The maid was startled by her question, her expression turning helpless as she recalled the things Ji Yu had done before. "Maybe it's because the bond between you two is especially deep. After all, not everyone gets to experience something like this."
"Yeah, it seems like our bond is indeed deep," Ji Yu said. "But isn't every single thing that has happened just proof of how awful it all is?"
She was smiling, but the maid only saw the fire in her eyes.
Ji Yu's mood was foul, like a ticking time bomb ready to explode at any moment—a disastrous prospect for everyone involved.
