Chapter 707: Chapter 699: I’ve Decided to Take You In Chapter 707: Chapter 699: I’ve Decided to Take You In “Was she sent back?”

Tang Yuxin was idly flipping through a book, unsure how many words had actually entered her eyes or had been recorded in her brain.

Probably not a single word, for her mind was in disarray.

How could she possibly focus on reading?

“Yes, she was sent back.”

Gu Ning stretched out his hand to place it on top of Tang Yuxin’s head.

“Why are you not asleep yet?”

“The night is long, and sleep eludes me.”

Tang Yuxin snorted.

With such a heavy heart, how could she possibly fall asleep?

Gu Ning said helplessly, “You’re the one who brought her here, what’s the matter?

...

If I didn’t send her back, were you planning to keep her for meals?”

“She wants to eat my food?” Tang Yuxin tossed the book away, hugged her arms, and with a cold side glance, she looked askance at Gu Ning.

“Does she have the face for it?”

She had stolen her credit, impersonated her, and received opportunities that rightfully belonged to her.

She really had some nerve, and oh yes, and she’d also stolen the man Tang Yuxin thought of as hers.

Suddenly, Tang Yuxin squinted her eyes, appraising Gu Ning from head to toe.

That’s right, how had she not realized that this man seemed to have originally been hers?

The phrase “How could you do this to me?” should have been asked by her instead.

“Tell me, why did you sponsor her education?”

Tang Yuxin just wanted to know one thing now.

She might be aware of the answer but she had to hear it for herself, to confirm it once more.

Gu Ning didn’t answer.

He simply got up and walked into the kitchen, and soon returned with a teapot in hand.

He began to select tea leaves and brew the tea; his movements were fluid and graceful, yet steady and composed—not soft like a woman’s but rather with a masculine energy, a carefree spirit reminiscent of the romanticism of the martial world.

So it turned out that he was also quite skilled in the way of tea.

It was a pity, though, that Tang Yuxin didn’t appreciate these subtleties.

To her, the quality of tea was about the same as a cup of plain boiled water.

Tang Yuxin had no way of knowing what Gu Ning truly felt in his past life, whether he loved Zhang Xiaomei to death, whether it was out of immense gratitude for saving his life, or perhaps, it was just the long-standing affection.

She wasn’t Gu Ning; she had no clue at all.

“How did you start to suspect?”

Tang Yuxin lay on the table, swaying her legs lightly, still unable to sleep through the lengthy night.

“Someone gave me this.”

Gu Ning stretched out his hand to his neck and took off the necklace he always wore, placing it on the table.

“I once asked Zhang Xiaomei, but she dodged the question, so I guessed there might be something wrong and later found out.”

“Me?” Tang Yuxin pointed at herself.

“Yes,” Gu Ning nodded.

“When?” How could Tang Yuxin not know?

“Earlier than you think,” Gu Ning said as he patted the top of her head, “you just need to know this much.

Now, go get some rest, it’s late.”

Of course, Tang Yuxin didn’t want to ask any further.

Asking up to this point was enough.

It didn’t matter how Gu Ning knew, but he knew, and no matter how he found out, he did find out.

As long as that woman hadn’t deceived his heart, that was what mattered.

Fortunately, she had only tricked him out of some money, his heart was still intact.

Otherwise, Tang Yuxin really wouldn’t know how to save this man.

As she was about to leave, Tang Yuxin turned back, grabbed the necklace from the table, and put it around her neck.

It was hers after all, just lent out for a few years, and now returned, it belonged to her again.

“By the way, I’ve made a decision.”

She had just taken a step away then turned back again.

“What is it?”

Gu Ning, perfectly at ease, stood there with an upright posture that was both awe-inspiring and endearing.

Tang Yuxin walked over to him and stood in front of Gu Ning, then raised Gu Ning’s arm and patted off the nonexistent dust on it.

“To prevent you from being harmed by some brainless, flat-chested woman, and to ensure that my numerous lifesaving efforts aren’t in vain, so...”

“So?” Gu Ning continued for her.

Tang Yuxin let go of Gu Ning’s arm, then lifted her hand and placed it around Gu Ning’s neck, squeezing tightly, almost hanging onto him.
