Gu Ke'yu received the exquisitely carved wooden sign, she was taken aback. She had no idea what she should write on it. In such an ancient and elegant place, what kind of wish would be appropriate to...Su Ke Xin had seen this necklace many times, every time Gu Chi held it in his hand like a precious treasure, as if lost in thought, staring at the necklace.

Su Kexin's words that were about to reach her lips suddenly swallowed, she just stared quietly at Gu Chi.

Under the moonlight, Gu Chi's expression at this moment was completely different from his usual self.

With a hint of emotion and fondness, mixed with feelings akin to regret and resignation.

Su Ke Xin didn't know why, but her chest felt like a little hedgehog was rolling around inside, a bit unpleasant.

At this moment, Gu Chi seemed to notice Su Kexin's approach and turned his head.

"Have you finished washing" In the blink of an eye, his face had returned to its usual coldness, and the necklace was back in his palm.

"Hmm." Su Ke Xin calmed herself down as quickly as possible. "Go wash up."

"Good."

Gu Chi agreed and walked back to his room.

He didn't rush to the bathroom, but walked over to his desk first, carefully placing the necklace in his hand into the first drawer before taking a towel and going into the bathroom.

Su KeXin remained in the room, hearing the gushing sound from the bathroom, her gaze involuntarily falling onto the desk.

She couldn't help but be a little curious.

What's the story behind that necklace Why does Gu Chi always look so sad when he looks at it

Su Kexin didn't know what was wrong with her. She wasn't usually a curious person, but at this moment, she felt like an invisible hand was pushing her from behind, urging her step by step towards the desk.

Just a glance...

It should... be fine, right

After confirming that Gu Chi was still in the bathroom taking a shower, Su Keixin held her breath and carefully pulled open Gu Chi's drawer.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, she just felt that the necklace, like a thorn in her heart, made her very concerned about it.

Even when she was with Gu Yichen before, she had never felt this way.

The drawer wasn't locked, it opened easily. Su Keqin saw several files inside, with a few photos on them, and the necklace as well.

Su Kexin first took out the necklace and carefully placed it in her palm.

It was a very beautiful necklace, made of crystal. Although it wasn't as dazzling as diamonds, it exuded a clear and pure aura. The craftsmanship was evident, and it must have been quite expensive.

Su Kexin flipped her necklace over and saw the back. She was suddenly stunned.

The front of this necklace is carved into the shape of a heart, but on the back, it's delicately engraved with a single character.

The intricate carving on this necklace is different, this character was clearly carved by someone unfamiliar with the craft. It's a bit rough, but it's still easily recognizable as a "ruò" character.

If...

Suddenly, Su Keqin's ears rang with the words that Old Master Gu had said to her when he had looked for her before.

For ten whole years, ever since Ruor died, I thought Gu Chi would never like women again.

Could this necklace belong to the woman named Ruo'er

Then who is she Is she Gu Chi's ex-girlfriend Where is she now

Driven by curiosity, Su Keixin couldn't help but take out the photos from the drawer.

At the moment she saw the photo, she was stunned once again.

In the picture, there is a couple of young people, who look to be around 18 years old.

That boy, Su Keqin quickly recognized, was Gu Chi.

However, it wasn't the mature and composed Gu Chi of today. Instead, it was a very young Gu Chi. His eyes and brows were just as handsome as they are now, but with an added touch of youthful naiveté and flamboyance.

If today's Gu Chi is a cup of low-key yet fragrant tea, then the Gu Chi of the past must have been a shot of strong liquor, intense and flamboyant, but so captivating, that one glance would make you intoxicated.

But what Su Kexin cared about more was the girl in the photo.

She was a very beautiful girl, so beautiful that Su Ke Xin, also a woman, couldn't help but be stunned.

She always felt that Lin Xiaoru was already very pretty, but compared to the girl in the photo, she was simply like holding a carnation up against a rose— ultimately, it still lacked some flavor.

Such a beautiful girl... Could she be Ruo'er The owner of this necklace

Suddenly, Su Ke Xin felt a strange, inexplicable unease in her heart.

That feeling was like when she was in elementary school, Lin Haisheng suddenly had a change of heart and transferred her to a private school. The first time she saw Lin Xiaoru, she was wearing a beautiful dress, while she was standing beside her awkwardly in hand-me-down clothes from another boy's family.

Su Keqin was lost in thought, so much so that she didn't even realize the sound of water from the bathroom next to her had stopped.

Until a cold voice, laced with barely suppressed anger, reached her ear —

"Su Kexin, what are you doing!"

Su Ke Xin was like a bucket of cold water poured over her head, she instantly sobered up and quickly got up. She saw Gu Chi who had come out of the bathroom at some point, wearing pajamas, with water droplets still dripping from his hair, a pair of black eyes staring coldly at her.

Su Ke Xin panicked instantly, as if she had been caught stealing. Even the necklace was still in her palm, "Gu Chi, I just—" Ah!"

She hurriedly tried to explain, all the while trying to put the necklace back in her hand. But unfortunately, her movements were too nervous, and the necklace slipped right out of her grasp.

Su Ke Xin's face instantly turned paler!

This is a crystal necklace! If you drop it on the ground, it'll shatter.

She quickly bent down to pick it up, even using her injured hand. The wound was stretched open with a sharp pain, but she didn't care at all.

I didn't want to, but Gu Chi around me moved faster.

He bent his body and took a step forward, the necklace finally landing safely in his hand just before it hit the ground.

Su KeXin's hand reached out into the air, grasping at nothing. She could see that the necklace was fine, and she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

But before she could finish her breath, she heard Gu Chi's icy voice ringing in her head—

"Su Kexin, can you explain what you're doing"

Her heart skipped a beat. She looked up and saw Gu Chi holding the necklace, staring at her coldly.

The moment their eyes met, Su Ke Xin only felt as if her heart had been struck by a hammer, it hurt so much.

She had never imagined Gu Chi would look at her with such eyes.

Even before, when they first met, Gu Chi might have been cold to himself, but he would never have looked at him like this.

In the midst of coldness, there wasn't even a hint of warmth, and it even carried a touch of disgust.

Su Kexin's lips trembled for a moment before she finally whispered, "I'm sorry, I was just watching you staring at this necklace and couldn't help but be curious..."

Her voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.ster, stop hitting, it was me, I admit it!"When she said this, her voice was barely a whisper. Gu Kejun was sprawled on the ground, his face covered in blood, and every inch of exposed skin bore bruis...
