Chapter 555: Chapter 555: I’m Telling the Truth
Cheng Junnan understood Gu Tiantian’s thoughts with just one glance. Although he felt a sudden tightness in his chest, he didn’t show it on his face and still maintained a gentle smile.
"It seems Tian Tian is an exception. Alright, I’ll try to control myself not to say it in the future."
However, he wished he could whisper the sweetest love words to her.
But if he did, he feared she would once again be frightened and flee.
Cheng Junnan took a deep breath, smiling at Gu Tiantian, noticing the fleeting astonishment in her eyes, his smile deepening bit by bit.
"Tian Tian, what I’m saying is true, you don’t believe me?"
Gu Tiantian shook her head, then nodded, quickly speaking.
"I believe, I believe."
Even though she didn’t know how believable it was, she couldn’t just slap someone in the face, could she?
Besides, Cheng Junnan...
Looking at Cheng Junnan, Gu Tiantian felt a bit complicated.
Every time she saw Cheng Junnan, she thought of the time she first met him in the office, after Bai Chenyao called her up and that embarrassing scene.
The words Cheng Junnan said back then were not something she wanted to remember, but every time she saw Cheng Junnan, her mind involuntarily recalled those images.
Just like every time she saw Bai Chenyao, she felt her legs go weak, wanting to turn around and run but not daring to, for fear she couldn’t bear the consequences.
Both Cheng Junnan and Bai Chenyao were people she wanted to avoid for life.
Even if Cheng Junnan saved her grandmother, saved her.
Gu Tiantian was still lost in thought when something suddenly appeared in her hand.
"What’s this?"
Cheng Junnan glanced at Gu Tiantian, his eyes landing on the box in her hand.
"Aren’t you worried about being discovered by Bai Chenyao? Your phone can’t be turned on, so use this. It’s not something I just bought, but something I used before, so you don’t need to have a psychological burden."
Gu Tiantian opened her mouth, looked at Cheng Junnan, then lowered her head to look at the box in her hand. Just as she was about to refuse, she heard Cheng Junnan speak again.
"Tian Tian, you know better than I do what kind of person Bai Chenyao is. Do you really think you can fight him on your own?"
Gu Tiantian paused slightly, her dark eyes staring straight at Cheng Junnan.
Seeing the seriousness and earnestness in his eyes, Gu Tiantian blinked, feeling a mix of unease and struggle in her heart.
"Without trying, how would you know?"
Before Cheng Junnan could speak, Gu Tiantian added again.
"This time I left, isn’t it quite good, he’s not found me after nearly ten days?"
Looking at the determined yet slightly hesitant Gu Tiantian, Cheng Junnan felt a struggle within him.
Because she hadn’t turned on her phone, she wouldn’t have seen the news.
Thinking about Gu Tiantian’s identity that had already been exposed, remembering the scene when he first learned about her identity, Cheng Junnan’s expression became somber.
The Mu Family!
The Mu Family that began its downfall over twenty years ago!
And Bai Chenyao?
The Bai Family!
The Bai Family that had been at odds with the Mu Family for over twenty years!
And the news that Gu Tiantian was the Second Miss of the Mu Family, he had someone investigate and found out that it was someone from the Bai Family’s old house who leaked it.
He had always wondered why Bai Chenyao, who was known to be disinterested in women, would keep Gu Tiantian by his side.
So, this was the truth, this was the reason?
Thinking of Gu Tiantian, who still knew nothing about these things, Cheng Junnan felt complex emotions again, even somewhat heavy-hearted.
His gaze moved away from the box in her hand, after a slight contemplation, it seemed he had made a decision.
