Inside the elevator, the two of them stared intently at the changing floor numbers on the screen.
"Are you planning to tell him tonight?" Gu Muxue asked.
'If she could, she would rather Xue Rui never find out she was sick.'
'She could just imagine the guilt Xue Rui would feel.'
'She wanted Xue Rui to feel indebted to her, to always give in to her. But she had no idea how this would end.'
'But she couldn't hide it any longer.'
Lin Ruoxi's abrupt departure, the medicine box she was carrying, and the changes in her personality... Xue Rui was bound to figure it out sooner or later.
"Muxue, I'm so scared..." Lin Ruoxi's voice trembled as she braced a hand against the elevator wall.
'Even though Gu Muxue had promised to let her have Xue Rui, she was still terrified he would ignore her.'
'She had hidden such a huge secret from Xue Rui. The mere thought of him looking at her with cold eyes made her feel like life had no meaning, and her legs went soft.'
