Lin Ze was silent.
He couldn't quite determine his true feelings, so he didn't know how to talk to Gu Shengyin.
Yet his silence made others assume it meant something else: a silent rejection.
Gu Shengyin's face dimmed.
She seemed to lose interest in sitting here watching the night scenery and stood up.
She said to Lin Ze, "I'm planning to go back to my room. You take your time to enjoy. Good night."
Lin Ze: "Good night."
Gu Shengyin turned around and walked toward the room without a backward glance.
As she walked, she spoke to the only system that could communicate with her, "System, I think, for now, there's no hope for Lin Ze and me."
The system agreed.
Gu Shengyin was a bit confused: "Logically, with my experience from multiple worlds, although he won't remember me, we should both have a soul-bound connection. He shouldn't feel nothing towards me."
The system thought for a moment and admitted it didn't know either.
