The moment Gu Yue finished speaking, Xiao Chen grew wary.
Go to Gu Yue's home?
A thought instantly flashed through his mind. Was she planning to drag him to the Star Dou Great Forest to watch those Ferocious Beasts bare their teeth?
Just imagining that scene made Xiao Chen shake his head inwardly. Whoever wanted to go there could go. He had no interest.
"No."
Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Chen flatly rejected Gu Yue's invitation.
What a joke. Who knew what Gu Yue wanted to do by inviting me to the Star Dou Great Forest? We've only known each other for a few years, and she already can't wait to take me there. Are we that close?
Besides, his main task was to enter Shrek and see the Golden Ancient Tree. He also had a few miscellaneous matters to handle and had no inclination to fool around with Gu Yue.
The smile on Gu Yue's face froze instantly. A flicker of astonishment crossed her eyes before she bit her lip in displeasure.
Fine, fine, fine. I've already lowered myself this much, and Xiao Chen still rejected me so bluntly. Not leaving me the slightest bit of dignity, huh? Looks like I'll have to get tough.
"No. You have to go!"
Gu Yue's sudden forcefulness seemed to freeze the air around them.
She stared fixedly at Xiao Chen, a trace of stubbornness in her eyes, as though she would not let the matter rest unless he agreed.
But Xiao Chen did not buy it. Gu Yue could do whatever she pleased. What did it have to do with him? Did she think she was that impressive, or that important?
Xiao Chen paid no attention whatsoever to her forcefulness. His expression remained calm.
"No means no. No time means no time."
