Gu Zhixi has been feeling somewhat uneasy these past few days.
Since Xiaobao had called her that day, he hadn't contacted her again.
Xiaobao was with He Jingyao, so of course there wouldn't be anything wrong, but had He Jingyao truly not noticed anything?
Every time she thought about it, her heart would race.
After Pei Yuanchen returned, he had been busy helping Gu Bingjun with business matters, leaving early and returning late every day, so they barely saw each other.
So that night, she deliberately waited until after midnight before she finally caught him.
As Pei Yuanchen walked into his own room and was about to take off his coat, he was startled upon raising his head and seeing Gu Zhixi.
He then frowned, "What are you doing here? Pretending to be a ghost?"
"I want to take Xiaobao back," she twisted her fingers anxiously, "I keep feeling that what I did was too reckless."
