Chapter 1351: What Happened to Gu Junling in the Previous Lifetime

After Zhou Tianyu left, Wen Xinya finally stopped trying to say anything. Zhou Tianyu had always been direct and bubbly, and would never be wishy-washy. Even when they joked about Gu Junling usually, she would openly talk about him instead of feeling embarrassed. It was Wen Xinya’s first time seeing Zhou Tianyu so flustered throughout the years of their friendship.

It was as if she was afraid that she would talk about Gu Junling if she were to stay another moment longer.

She was intentionally trying to avoid talking about Gu Junling.

Whenever they talked about Gu Junling in the past, Zhou Tianyu would never avoid the topic even though she would feel shy. Yet. there was such a drastic change in her attitude towards Gu Junling.

Could it be that something had happened without her knowledge?

Wen Xinya could not help but think about the look of misery in Zhou Tianyu’s eyes during their previous gathering, as well as the words that she said which seemed to be hinting that she might harm Gu Junling if she were to get together with him.

Could this be the reason for the sudden change in Zhou Tianyu’s attitude?

Wen Xinya was extremely worried, though there was nothing she could do since the investigation that Si Yiyan conducted on the Zhou Family had yet to produce any useful leads.

After giving it some thought, Wen Xinya felt that she ought to give Gu Junling a call.

The call took a long time to get through, after which Gu Junling asked in a firm voice, “Xinya, I was discussing something with a client just now. Why did you call?”

They had been friends for such a long time and already knew each other very well. Hence, he had also guessed that something must have happened in order for Wen Xinya to call him at this timing.

Wen Xinya hurriedly took a look at the time to see that it was half-past three in the afternoon, which was a working hour. She frantically said, “You’re busy now? Is it convenient for you to pick up? Am I disturbing you?”

She had been too worried about Zhou Tianyu to pay attention to the time.

“There’s nothing too inconvenient. We’re so close, you don’t have to stand on ceremony,” said Gu Junling, who handed a stack of documents to his assistant and signaled for him to leave.

Feeling a little hesitant, the assistant stared at the documents. However, he had no choice but to leave after noticing the stern gaze in Gu Junling’s eyes.

Having no idea that Gu Junling was busy, she said, “Tianyu mentioned about you when she came to visit me just now.”

“What did she say about me?” asked Gu Junling, who was clearly excited to hear that she had talked about him. All men loved to hear about their beloved women talking about them.

Wen Xinya said half-jokingly, “She said that she has no idea what has gotten into you lately, so much that you’ve begun paying more attention to your family’s business. She also said that you two barely met each other recently because you were too busy with work. Tsk, she definitely is complaining.”

“She must be lying. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have refused to see me the past few days. I tried to ask her out but she kept turning me down. I should be the one complaining. I miss her so much, it’s tragic!” Gu Junling sounded rather melancholic.

Wen Xinya snorted with laughter and suddenly got the goosebumps. “Does that mean that you haven’t met Tianyu lately too?”

It seems, there was something amiss with their relationship.

Extremely upset, Gu Junling said, “It’s been four days since I saw Tianyu. I’ve been busy with work and rarely got to spend any time with her. However, we still talk over the phone. I can’t possibly probe if she doesn’t want to tell me what happened.”

Whenever he asked her out, she would sound extremely irritated and frustrated. Hence, he was afraid of provoking her further and decided not to probe. Besides, he had also found his purpose and goal in life. He worked hard in hopes of becoming as strong as Si Yiyan so that he could conquer the world for the love of his life. Hence, he urged himself to put his thoughts aside and focus on work instead.

“Since you couldn’t ask her out, couldn’t you have gone to look for her yourself!?” Wen Xinya barked, wishing she could kick him. She felt that she shouldn’t sympathize with Gu Junling at all. Zhou Tianyu was not all to blame for the fact that he couldn’t win her heart. Given how timid he was, she definitely wouldn’t fall for him. He was too passive.

If he were as thick-skinned as Si Yiyan, he would definitely be able to win Zhou Tianyu’s heart.

Gu Junling was speechless.

He suddenly felt extremely weak!

Why didn’t I think of that?

Wen Xinya hesitated for a moment before asking, “Gu Junling, have you ever thought of giving up on Tianyu someday?”

Wen Xinya thought about her previous lifetime. Although she did not know the final outcome, she could guess that they didn’t end up together, though she could not understand the reason he gave up on Zhou Tianyu.

Gu Junling exclaimed firmly, “I never will. Over my dead body!”

He would never give up on her unless he was dead.

It was as if he had given Wen a great shock as she felt a cold chill down her spine.

Over his dead body!

She reckoned that he must have died in her previous lifetime.

In her previous lifetime, she had never heard about Gu Junling. She knew Xu Zhenyu for seven years, heard of Ling Qingxuan, Zhou Tianyu, and Han Mofeng, but not Gu Junling.

Given how close Gu Junling and Xu Zhenyu were, that was impossible.

The only possibility would be that Gu Junling had already died!

Gu Junling should have died before she met Xu Zhenyu in her previous lifetime.

In this lifetime, she had returned to the Wen Family for six years but Gu Junling was still well and alive. A lot had happened since her rebirth, but she did not know why Gu Junling’s fate had changed!

However, she was shocked about his death.

Could it have something to do with Zhou Tianyu?

If it were like what she had guessed, Zhou Tianyu would definitely get into trouble.

Wen Xinya held her breath and said, “Gu Junling, Tianyu just came to see me. I think she looks a little haggard and out of sorts. Pay more attention to her.”

She suddenly felt that the situation between Zhou Tianyu and Gu Junling was rather tricky, though it was all just her conjecture. Without any evidence, she could not say anything except getting Gu Junling to pay more attention to Zhou Tianyu.
