A handsome man and beautiful woman together was always an eye-catching sight.

Xu Weilai glanced over instinctively, and her eyes settled on the man who stood out among the crowd. His eyes were finely shaped, like almonds, with a slight upturn. In colloquial terms, they were known as phoenix eyes. He had a high nose bridge and thin lips. He looked indifferent as if nothing could ever faze him, and he had a cold, ruthless aura about him.

Beside him was a stunningly beautiful woman. Her hand was tucked in the crook of his elbow as she leaned on him delicately. Her smile reached her eyes, and she looked endearing.

She recognized the woman. It was none other than the insanely popular Su Ziqian, whose face was plastered all over the streets and on the billboards.

As for the man…

Xu Weilai knew that her return meant it would only be a matter of time before she met Gu Yu again. However, she never expected it to be this soon and this sudden. Strangely, an indescribable emotion rippled through her heart.

She couldn’t tell if it was nervousness or antic.i.p.ation.

Gu Yu and Su Ziqian were surrounded by a crowd as they made their way in, and they were heading in her direction.

Gu Yu seemed to sense her gaze on him, and he looked over. His eyes met with Xu Weilai’s, and, as both of them gazed at each other, Xu Weilai’s heart skipped a beat.

However, the very next moment, Gu Yu acted as if he hadn’t seen a thing. He moved his gaze away and walked right past her.

Xu Weilai lowered her eyes to hide the self-mockery that surfaced within her.

She had naively imagined the scene of her reunion with Gu Yu. She had imagined all sorts of possibilities, but it had never crossed her mind that it would be this horrible. He hadn’t even blinked when he saw her. It was almost as if she were invisible.
