The sunlight of City Y spilled through the car window, casting a gentle, indescribable warmth in Gu Ningyue's gaze, as if it had traveled from a distant past life.
For some reason, Lin Ruixian found himself momentarily entranced by her.
Those eyes, no matter what appearance they might take, always caused him to fall hopelessly.
It wasn't until Gu Ningyue waved her hand in front of him that he finally snapped out of it: "Uh... we were just catching up, talking about some past events."
Gu Ningyue nodded, thought for a moment, and asked, "Then, did he meet my mentor?"
The seemingly casual question belied her heart racing almost to her throat.
It was the first time she had inquired about her mentor's whereabouts in so long.
Lin Ruixian hesitated slightly: "I didn't ask."
Gu Ningyue turned her head, looking at the dazzling buildings by the roadside, masking her inner disappointment.
