The sound of running water continued.
Jiang Qingli didn't know how long she had been standing there, watching.
Their eyes met. Gu Nian's heart skipped a beat. The hand holding his terminal went rigid and pale, as if drenched by the drizzling water, a chill spreading from his fingertips.
As an Assassin, he shouldn't have let his guard down like this.
But around Jiang Qingli, his senses always seemed to dull.
Blinking, Gu Nian forced a smile. "Sister, did you forget something...?"
Before he could finish his question, he was interrupted by the sound of her sudden footsteps approaching him.
Jiang Qingli stopped in front of Gu Nian, leaned down, and moved closer. "Why didn't you answer my question?"
Their breaths were only inches apart.
Catching her scent, Gu Nian's pupils dilated slightly. The rabbit ears on his head popped out uncontrollably, folding back and trembling against his soft hair.
Slender fingers wrapped around one of his rabbit ears.
