The Canary that couldn't escape-Chapter 704 - 705: What Does She Mean to You? 2

Gao Zhenzhen, however, was very happy; his attitude towards her was not so cold and unfeeling.

Glancing up slightly, her gaze inadvertently swept over Mo Ran upstairs.

Looking at Gu Yixuan, she showed a calm smile and said, "There’s one more thing I need to apologize for. I shouldn’t have framed Mo Ran. It’s just that I really couldn’t accept the fact that you suddenly didn’t want me."

Gu Yixuan nodded and spoke indifferently, "I was the first to wrong you. Let’s strike off our past and stop contacting each other from now on."

In reality, he was still unfeeling, only showing her a bit more tolerance.

Gao Zhenzhen gave a bitter smile and felt sorrow for herself in her heart, having fallen in love with a man who could not be thawed.

"Before I leave, can you hug me?" she asked, with the clichéd request of every drama.

Gu Yixuan’s brows furrowed slightly, and he refused curtly, "No need!"

"Just a farewell hug, you can’t even grant this request?" she asked, filled with hope and as woeful as one could appear.

"If you can’t fulfill this wish, I think I’ll miss you for the rest of my life."

This threat was truly a headache-inducing one.

Gu Yixuan hesitated, then turned to look at a window upstairs. Mo Ran quickly drew back, not allowing him to see her.

Seeing no one there, he decided to satisfy her wish—after all, a hug didn’t signify anything.

Moreover, it could be considered a repayment for her attentive care during that time.

"Fine," Gu Yixuan said, opening his arms and pulling her into his embrace.

The woman leaned on his chest, closing her eyes contentedly. This embrace was broad and warm; she would rather stay here forever.

But this embrace was not for her, it belonged to another woman...

Gao Zhenzhen hugged him tightly, wishing she could never part from him.

She truly loved him; having to separate from the person she loved most felt like her heart had been gouged out, leaving her bleeding profusely.

How she wished that time could turn back to a month ago when they were still in Japan, and their relationship would forever remain that of lovers...

Watching this scene from upstairs, Mo Ran covered her chest, turned away, and her face was deathly pale.

She’d seen it, seen Gu Yixuan embracing Gao Zhenzhen willingly.

Between them, could there still be lingering feelings?

Just how special was Gu Yixuan’s treatment of Gao Zhenzhen?

The more she thought about it, the more her heart ached.
