Gu Xichen's heart did not ache, nor did it waver; there was only sorrow.
At this moment, he realized a truth.
It turned out that he was the same kind of person as Gu Lili.
After the death of their closest relatives, there were very few people in this world who could still be described as family.
Once in the car, he phoned Gu Lili to tell her about it. Gu Lili asked him to wait for her in front of the Gu Family Mansion, saying she would be there soon.
It took about fifteen minutes for her to arrive by taxi.
As she got into the car, she looked back at the back seat. "Where's Jingsheng?"
"Not feeling well, I told her to rest at home and didn't bring her with me." Gu Xichen turned his head to look at her. "Am I a disappointment to you? You asked me to seize the power of the Gu Family, but I failed."
Gu Lili asked him, "Are you disappointed in yourself?"
"Would you be even more disappointed if I said no?"
