Gu Kai lowered his gaze, his eyes lingering for a moment on his hand gripping the steering wheel, before lifting them to look at her again. In his eyes, a hint of emotion appeared—one she couldn't understand. "When I heard what Li En said earlier, I was so shocked and overwhelmed that I lied to you about going on a business trip…"
"Ah Kai."
Bai Yiyi softly interrupted him.
Gu Kai's eyes reflected a trace of confusion as he looked at her, puzzled.
Bai Yiyi sighed gently, "You're not the only one who couldn't handle it—even I couldn't. Honestly, you don't need to force yourself for anyone, least of all for Tongtong. You don't need to push yourself into doing something against your will."
She loved him, and she hoped he would be happy.
If being together only reminded him of hate and filled his heart with discomfort, she would rather let him find a girl who could bring him joy and be happy with someone else.
