This man is truly baffling.
"Qiao Xiguan, these peaceful days won't last much longer," Gu Zichen said. His tone was calm, yet there was a faint trace of sentimentality, perhaps even some melancholy.
It was rare to find such rich emotions in a single sentence from Gu Zichen.
Qiao Xiguan spat out a grape seed, wiped her mouth and hands with a napkin, and said nonchalantly, "Will we die?"
"I don't know." For the first time, Gu Zichen responded with an ambiguous answer.
Which meant that this mission was out of their control.
Qiao Xiguan thought for a moment and said, "Gu Zichen, I really look forward to our future — you, Gu Minglu, and the baby growing inside me. But I understand, when it comes to the country's plight, family means nothing. I'm not a great person, but I will never blame you. No matter the outcome, I won't blame you. I've resigned myself to this fate — the fate of loving you."
