Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 513: She Doesn’t Care

"When are you going to the company?" Gu Ningyue asked as she looked at Ling Tianyou, who was sitting beside her.

Ling Tianyou glanced at the watch on his wrist, "No rush. It ended earlier than I expected, so I can still rest for a while."

Gu Ningyue responded and leaned back on the sofa, saying to Ling Tianyou, "Do you think if one day my master knows that I am that disappointing disciple of hers, she will be surprised?"

Just thinking about it, Gu Ningyue found the scene would be quite interesting.

Ling Tianyou chuckled, "Probably! But I think, maybe your master will soon realize your true identity without needing you to say anything."

"Why?" Gu Ningyue was a bit puzzled, "Do I look so easy to see through?"

Ling Tianyou turned his head, looking at Gu Ningyue, "No, it’s just that no matter how well you hide, for those familiar with you, nothing escapes their eyes. Moreover, this is your master we’re talking about!"

Gu Ningyue pondered for a while, "You have a point. I hadn’t thought about this, lately I’ve just been wondering what my master would do if I revealed my identity to her!"

Just like how concern can lead to chaos, when it came to her master, Gu Ningyue seemed to lose the intelligence she once had.

"You!" Ling Tianyou looked at Gu Ningyue and said, "If you could treat me the same way you treat your master, I’d wake up laughing in my dreams."

Gu Ningyue pouted, "I’m not good to you? I’m good to you too, just that I never had the chance to show it!"

Ling Tianyou lifted the corners of his mouth, "Then when do you plan to show it?"

Gu Ningyue thought for a few seconds, "Well, that depends on fate. Being too deliberate is not good!"

Although she had no experience in love, she still had her own set of theories in her heart.

What naturally comes out expresses true feelings.

What is done deliberately, is just an act.

Just like that time with Ye Mingchen and Gu Wanwan, they seemed loving, but in the end what happened?

They each had their own thoughts, and when difficulties arose, they flew separately!

"I’m joking." Ling Tianyou touched Gu Ningyue’s head, "Just stay with me and have no one else in your heart, okay."

In Ling Tianyou’s heart, Gu Ningyue was always just a little girl.

It was natural for him to protect her.

If possible, he was willing to protect her forever.

Gu Ningyue was just about to nod when her phone suddenly made a notification sound, "Ding Dong—"

Gu Ningyue picked up her phone and glanced at it, then looked at Ling Tianyou with a somewhat panicked expression, "He might be asking me about Xing Tong’s matters. We haven’t contacted each other for so long, don’t misunderstand..."

On the screen, Su Heng’s handsome avatar was evident, "Does Miss Gu have any time recently? I have something to discuss with Miss Gu, I wonder if Miss Gu could spare some time?"

No need to say, Ling Tianyou saw it.

For some reason, Gu Ningyue was very afraid that Ling Tianyou would get angry.

Who knew Ling Tianyou smiled extremely gently, so gentle that Gu Ningyue thought she was hallucinating, "No need to explain, I trust you. If you were in constant contact, he wouldn’t be using such a polite tone with you. Don’t be so nervous."

Gu Ningyue scrutinized Ling Tianyou, "You’re not angry?"

Ling Tianyou maintained his smile from before, "Why would I be angry?"

Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou, "Because... because I am friends with Su Heng, and we are in contact?"

Although, this hardly counts as contact, just an occasional unexpected encounter!

Ling Tianyou reached out and touched her head, "Do I look like I have such a strong possessiveness? There’s nothing wrong with having your own social circle, if even this has to be restricted, then what’s the difference between me and Kai Qi?"

Gu Ningyue was half convinced, but Ling Tianyou didn’t give her a chance to speak again, "Okay, reply to him! Ask him what’s going on."

Gu Ningyue nodded, entered a question mark in the chatbox, and then pressed send.

She truly didn’t understand, between her and Su Heng, there’s no bond at all, so why did Su Heng keep focusing on her?

Ever since they met in the restaurant that day, Su Heng seemed to have set his sights on her.

Always popping up unintentionally, stirring up the ripples just about to calm down.

For some inexplicable reason, Gu Ningyue felt that Su Heng seemed to be plotting something, just never finding the right moment.

After waiting for a while, Su Heng still hadn’t replied. Under normal circumstances, Gu Ningyue wouldn’t have cared.

Him not replying gives her the freedom to be carefree.

But right now, with Ling Tianyou by her side and Su Heng not replying, it felt somewhat irritating.

Ling Tianyou looked at the time, stood up, and said to Gu Ningyue, "Let’s go! It’s time to go to the company."

Gu Ningyue nodded, "Okay."

Saying that, Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but glance at her phone.

Was Su Heng busy? Why hadn’t he replied to her?

All the way, Gu Ningyue struggled to suppress her urge to check her phone.

When we arrived at the company, it was just about time for it to close for the day.

Many employees were coming out from the entrance sporadically, surprised to see Ling Tianyou and Gu Ningyue together at the door before their eyes widened in admiration.

"Wow, President Ling treats Miss Gu so well! They’re even holding hands so tightly?"

"Miss Gu doesn’t really resemble Gu Wanwan, the difference in their bearing is too great."

"Yeah! Looking at it this way, Gu Wanwan seems like just a maid!"

"Though I still think Chen Rui suits President Ling better!"

"Shh, lower your voice. If President Ling hears, you’ll have your salary docked again!"

Murmurs of conversation drifted over, and Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou, "Seems like someone’s always docking their salary?"

Ling Tianyou was a bit embarrassed, "I don’t like others pairing Chen Rui with me."

Nor did he like hearing people say she suited him better than you.

In his eyes, no one but Gu Ningyue suited him.

Gu Ningyue’s earlier fluster was now masked by some other emotion, "I don’t mind, after all, it’s their mouth, as long as I don’t mind it’s fine."

Ling Tianyou asked softly, "Really? Are you really that carefree?"

Gu Ningyue nodded, "Mm. If one cares too much about others’ opinions, they’re bound to live a tiring life."

Ling Tianyou was silent for a moment, then said to Gu Ningyue, "What if one day, everyone thinks we’re not a good match?"

Gu Ningyue looked up at Ling Tianyou, "I’m with you, not them, as long as you don’t think that, that’s all that matters."

She didn’t care about anyone else’s thoughts.
