Chapter 2314 Zhizhi Playing the Victim

"That’s exactly what she thinks." Gu Zhiqi said, looking down at the tablet in her hand, swiping through the pages, she continued to Gu Yuluo, "No matter what, home should be a warm harbor for you."

"But now, you’re sick and wanting to escape from home, is it because the family doesn’t make you feel warm?"

"Or is it that we haven’t given you a sense of security?"

Gu Yuluo listened and immediately shook her head, "What nonsense are you talking about? There’s no such thing."

Gu Zhiqi looked up and glanced at Gu Yuluo.

With that glance, Gu Yuluo fell into those deep, misty eyes, and for a moment, Gu Yuluo almost felt like she would fall into them until Gu Zhiqi looked away, bringing Gu Yuluo back to her senses.

Gu Zhiqi continued to speak while looking down, "Third Sister, I’m a hypnotist, you should already know, but I don’t want to use it on you."

"So, can you tell me yourself?"

"I want to help you."

"I can even access the Ever Winning Army’s data, we’re family, I thought you’d come to me for help, not the other way around..."

The rest of the words, Gu Zhiqi did not say. She slightly lowered her gaze, her expression unseen, but just watching her gave a bit of a dejected and pitiful feeling.

Gu Zhiqi said she wouldn’t hypnotize, but Gu Yuluo didn’t realize she had already fallen into Gu Zhiqi’s trap.

Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s words, seeing her expression, Gu Yuluo totally lacked resistance.

Knowing what Gu Zhiqi left unsaid, it must be that the earlier conversation had been overheard by Gu Zhiqi.

Seeing Gu Zhiqi like this, Gu Yuluo spoke anxiously, "I, I just don’t want you guys to worry, don’t overthink."

Gu Zhiqi continued looking down, seemingly sullen, "But if you keep acting like this, we’ll worry even more."

Gu Yuluo: "This isn’t because of Mom, it’s..."

Halfway through, Gu Yuluo’s words halted, her expression conflicted.

Staring at Gu Zhiqi for quite a while, in the end, she confessed to Gu Zhiqi, "It’s because of Feng Qi."

"Because... because Feng Qi died."

When speaking of Feng Qi’s death, Gu Yuluo’s voice was trembling, and her words were squeezed out.

After she finished, Gu Yuluo’s eyes turned red, tears welling up, and her whole body trembled slightly.

The air conditioning was on in the booth, not cold at all, but Gu Yuluo’s heart felt a chill.

Some things, when hidden in the heart, she thought she could lick her wounds and heal, believing one day it would get better.

But it didn’t.

When she spoke the words, Gu Yuluo realized that she could no longer deny it, Feng Qi was dead.

The memories of Feng Qi’s death were black.

Recalling it used to hurt, but later Gu Yuluo thought her heart had grown numb to the pain.

Now, speaking it out loud, Gu Yuluo realized it still hurt after all.

Gu Yuluo hung her head, trapped in memories, unable to escape until a warm touch on the back of her hand brought her back.

Gu Yuluo turned her head to look at Gu Zhiqi.

Gu Zhiqi said no comforting words, just looked at Gu Yuluo and said, "Come see someone with me."

Gu Yuluo didn’t know who Gu Zhiqi wanted her to see, but she could guess it was probably the psychologist mentioned before.

Honestly, Gu Yuluo was resistant to seeing any doctor.

She knew she was not normal now, but she didn’t want to be normal, because this way, at least occasionally she could see Feng Qi.

Seeing Gu Yuluo say nothing, Gu Zhiqi also remained silent, just watching her.

After a long silence, in the end, Gu Yuluo agreed.
