Gu Qingyuan was manipulated by Lu Xiao, yet arrogantly thought he was the one using Lu Xiao.
Both were being used, but Gu Qingyuan seemed to be lacking in intelligence.
Shen Biran did not want to become a pawn in Lu Xiao's conspiracy, nor did she want to fall into his trap again, especially with Lu Xiao having little time left before leaving this world.
Lu Xiao possessed an ability that made people unknowingly become obsessed with him.
However, Shen Biran was no longer so easily deceived.
Shen Biran had her own thoughts and would not be fooled by Lu Xiao again.
Lu Xiao was indeed laughable; he had already left a lasting impression on Shen Biran, and she would no longer entrust him with her trust because of his deceit.
But what was the result?
The result was, even if she truly trusted Lu Xiao, what he brought her was a ton of harm.
Before the harm arrived, Lu Xiao would still cause Shen Biran to unconsciously sink into it.
