After returning to the apartment, the two of them walked into their respective rooms without saying a word, leaving Li Cheng completely bewildered.
Gu Mingxuan hadn't told him he was going back. He had only found out yesterday.
In his rush, he had also bought a ticket to return home tomorrow, though he wasn't on the same flight as Gu Mingxuan.
One was in the morning, and the other in the afternoon.
He just didn't know what had happened between them. They had become like strangers after coming back.
Strictly speaking, they weren't exactly strangers. It was more like something had happened, and they were deliberately refusing to speak.
As for what had happened, Li Cheng began to speculate.
Old Gu hadn't actually confessed, had he? No way, right?
When Gu Mingxuan and Li Xia got off the red bus together, he made up his mind that he would definitely confess today.
From the moment he held Li Xia's hand, he hadn't stopped thinking about it.
But even though he had rehearsed it countless times in advance, when the time actually came to do it, he realized he couldn't open his mouth at all.
When they reached Big Ben, arriving at this sacred place for confessions, he knew it was time.
But as he looked at Li Xia's profile, he found it difficult to say the words.
And just like that, he missed his chance there.
As they left, Gu Mingxuan was still thinking about how the simplest confession in his eyes had turned into something so complicated.
Wasn't it just opening his mouth and speaking? He even dared to confront the directors of other companies, yet when it came to matters of the heart, he couldn't say a thing.
It was soft, yet full of strength.
Not everything
