Chapter 1259: Chapter 1258: Han Shang, Suit Yourself

However, Xue Tong broke these two rules and left the Sicuro Mafia, which was undoubtedly a betrayal to Han Shang.

Han Shang was severely injured because of her...

Yet he still protected her, escaping the Sicuro Mafia, fearing she would suffer persecution from others.

This matter has already passed a lifetime.

Until now, Gu Tong always wanted to ask Han Shang why he did it back then.

However...

Separated by two lifetimes, Gu Tong’s question ultimately remained unasked, and Han Shang could not answer her and resolve her doubts.

Nonetheless, the past to Gu Tong was undoubtedly akin to a tragic existence; because of her misunderstanding, she harmed Han Shang and exploited their friendship.

Until later, she regretted it endlessly...

Now it’s another lifetime.

Gu Tong does not believe she can compensate Han Shang in any way.

She understands Han Shang needs companionship, yet now she is unable to step into the Sicuro Mafia even a half step.

Gu Tong lowered her eyelids, speaking calmly, "I’m feeling a bit tired, Han Shang, do as you please."

Her meaning was clear that she wanted to rest.

No longer wishing to continue talking with Han Shang, the past is like a knot in the heart.

No matter what, Gu Tong cannot forget and has no solution; as of now, avoiding Han Shang seems the only way out.

Han Shang’s deep eyes flickered with some inexplicable emotion, his tone calm, "Then have a good rest, we’ll set off in half an hour!"

The scepter in the Ancient Tomb was something Han Shang must obtain, and the purpose of the Sicuro Mafia’s visit to Longxing Country was to retrieve this item; Han Shang naturally could not forget it for anything.

Because of Gu Tong, he forgot the most important scepter!

Gu Tong pulled up the blanket, curling up inside it to hide her expression, leaving Han Shang only with her silhouette.

Han Shang stared at Gu Tong for a while, fully in a contemplative attitude.

His expression was inexplicable, carrying an unspeakable emotion, yet with just a glance, one could understand, Han Shang was deep in thought.

But what he was thinking about became an unsolved mystery.

Inside the Sicuro Mafia, followers long by Han Shang’s side, or the old Boss, could not truly fathom Han Shang’s intentions.

This little boss of the Sicuro Mafia was simply difficult to serve from their perspective, with emotions as unpredictable as the weather and personality ever-changing, no one knew exactly when they might offend the little boss, hence those serving him were always cautious and nervous.

If...

Anyone could truly decipher his thoughts, they would have to be the tapeworms in his belly; no one believed such an entity truly existed in this world.

However...

In her past life, Gu Tong was the one to break this norm; she became a special presence within the Sicuro Mafia, staying by Han Shang’s side, whom he regarded as a trustworthy ally, a person to confide in and a shoulder to rely on.

The memories Gu Tong thought she had long forgotten barged in unchecked; they were like plunderers, fighting over this land, occupying the dominance of her brain.

Gu Tong pursed her lips, forcing herself not to continue thinking about these matters.

*Creaaak*—the sound of a chair moving.

Clearly, there were only thirty minutes to rest.

Han Shang, who should be out dining, showed no intention of leaving.

At this moment, he sat quietly on the chair, staring at Gu Tong’s back more openly.
