Ning Zeyan's leg is fine, which is major news for the Ning Family. This news spread quickly, even the unsuspecting Mrs. Ning was so ecstatic she almost fainted.
Suddenly, many came to make connections, and Ning Zeyan dismissed those people before saying to Gu Xiyao, "My leg is fine; I should revisit your mother with you properly. Back then, they paired you with Ning Zesheng because they despised that I was a cripple!"
Ning Zeyan always had a gentle smile on his face, yet his words carried a sarcastic undertone.
Gu Xiyao replied directly, "You said we are on the same path, and pretending all the time is exhausting. We shouldn't have to be so insincere with each other anymore, right?"
"This isn't pretending!" Ning Zeyan chuckled, "It's just that it has become a habit, an accumulated habit over time. Just like how you're clearly reprimanding me now, yet I still find you quite gentle."
