Gu Xiaonuan could treat him as if he didn't exist, and Si Yuchen had that peculiar quality, as if he could simply blend into the air.
As Gu Xiaonuan turned to leave, Si Yuchen's figure froze on the spot.
As if under some inexplicable force, even he didn't know why he had come to the apartment or why he was now sharing the space with Gu Xiaonuan.
