After a mont of silence, Gu Zheng stood up and slowly said, "I completely cut ties with him because of one of his plans."
"What plan?" Qiao Xi was puzzled.
Gu Zheng took off his gold-frad glasses and stared at her with a burning gaze. "Cheng Ju'an must have said it on the phone just now."
Qiao Xi was stunned for a few seconds before she instantly ca to a realization. "You already know that He Weinian is scheming against ?"
"Yes." Gu Zheng stared at her with his deep eyes.
"But didn't you say that we've never t before? Even if you knew that he wanted to attack , you wouldn't have cut off all contact with your master for a stranger!"
Gu Zheng's gaze was calm, and his voice suddenly darkened. "That's what's strange."
"I know very well that I cut off all ties with He Weinian for soone. I rembered that I had to wait for her at the Civil Affairs Bureau on an important day, but I just didn't know who that person was.
"When I saw you, I was sure that you were the person I've been looking for."
In his and Qiao Xi's mories, they had known each other for ten years but had never t. He did not know that Qiao Xi was Black Tide. Since he did not know, why would he cut ties with He Weinian because of Qiao Xi?
Moreover, it was also because of Qiao Xi that his loyalty to He Weinian shifted and he secretly investigated the evidence of He Weinian's cri. He even threatened He Weinian to leave Li City.
Qiao Xi's head was heavy as she sat on the sofa, her gaze gradually becoming dazed.
At that ti, Gu Zheng did not even know her, but he still protected her through his instincts. He did not even hesitate to go against He Weinian for her.
"In that case…" Qiao Xi's voice was slightly hoarse.
Gu Zheng continued, "We've known each other for a long ti, but we've both lost our mories of each other. Moreover, I'm guessing that I hadn't lost my mory before I resisted He Weinian, so my mory loss is probably related to He Weinian."
His gaze was so deep as he quietly looked at Qiao Xi. "After that, I lost my mory, but I still relied on my instincts to resist He Weinian. It's even to the extent that it's possible that I was already prepared to make a move on He Weinian before I lost my mory. It's just that I can't rember now."
Qiao Xi recalled Cheng Juan's words just now: He Weinian wanted to attack her two years ago, but for so reason, he had no choice but to postpone the plan.
What was the reason? Was it because Gu Zheng, who had yet to lose, had set up a trap in advance? He hoped that He Weinian would back down and give up on that plan.
"But this is just my guess." Gu Zheng suddenly stood up and walked in front of her. His tall and straight body blocked the light, and Qiao Xi's eyes suddenly darkened.
She slowly looked up. Gu Zheng was standing against the light, and his expression could not be seen clearly. However, she could see the smile on his lips. He bent down slightly and gently lifted her chin, muttering softly, "Even if I forgot about you back then, we were destined to be together. I was destined to leave He Weinian's side for you, and I was also destined to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to wait for you."
Qiao Xi gasped as their eyes t. At this mont, ti seed to have stopped.
At this mont, Gu Yao's eyes were filled with adoration. He wished he could take out his phone to record this beautiful scene.
Gu Zheng had already forgotten about Qiao Xi, yet he was still able to go against his master for her. Wasn't this fate?
It was love decided by the gods! It was too touching! His heart was moved!
However, the next second…
Qiao Xi took a few steps back nervously. "Could it be that you're thinking too much? Perhaps He Weinian didn't postpone the plan because of you. Could it be that you set up a trap before you lost your mory?"
After all, the two of them had already lost their mories. Gu Zheng had never appeared in her mind. How could Gu Zheng go against his master's wishes for soone he had never seen before?
The smile on Gu Yao's face froze, and the beautiful scene in front of him shattered.
Gu Zheng's eyes revealed an awkward expression for the first ti. Qiao Xi lowered her head and did not dare to look at him as if she had made a mistake.
After a long silence, Gu Zheng cleared his throat and said, "I have sothing else to tell you. The Yao family and the Kang family are sowhat related. Chairman Yao ntioned it before, but the Kang family is too powerful. We haven't found any useful clues yet."
"Yao ngqing's Yao family?"
"Yes, I've asked Song Shijing to investigate. I'll tell you when there's sothing."
