When Chu An heard this, there was a hint of inquiry in his expression.
This matter was not a good thing for Gu Xiao or Chu An.
Because they did not know if Ji Chen found out about this through some means or guessed it, and whether anyone else would know about it.
Even if others didn’t dare to confirm the authenticity of this matter, it was still a disadvantageous factor for Gu Xiao and Chu An.
Gu Xiao came back to her senses and saw Chu An deep in thought. Seeing his furrowed brows, she patted Chu An’s arm in confusion.
“What are you thinking?”
Chu An very naturally held Gu Xiao’s hand, which was about to retract, and gently kneaded it a few times in the palm of his hand. Only then did Chu An tell her what he was worried about just now.
After hearing Chu An’s words, Gu Xiao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Even if someone knows about this, so what? Could it be that there are others who can think of such ridiculous things? As for Brother… he should only know about this because he’s too close to us.”
Actually, to Gu Xiao, it did not matter if others knew about her first life.
After all, she was completely different from how she had been in her first life. Not to mention the temperament that she had developed after her experiences in her second life, just her face, which was the most difficult to change, was also very different from her first life.
If someone who was not familiar with her at all saw her first life and this life at the same time, they would definitely not think that she was the same person.
Moreover… so what if someone knew about her first life? As long as not many people knew, even if this matter was told to others, no one would really believe it.
If she caught someone on the street and said that she had been reborn twice, and this was her third life, that person would not believe her words. Instead, they would suspect that she was mentally ill.
Therefore, she had never been worried about this.
Hearing Gu Xiao’s words, Chu An realized how funny his thoughts were just now.
His hand that was kneading Gu Xiao’s hand paused. Then, he brushed back the hair covering his forehead, revealing his sharp eyes. However, there was no longer a deep color in those sharp eyes, only a hint of helplessness.
“I was thinking too much.”
Gu Xiao chuckled and reached out to hug Chu An’s waist, burying herself in Chu An’s arms.
She gently rubbed her cheek against Chu An’s chest and placed her ear on Chu An’s left chest, listening to Chu An’s steady heartbeat.
“I can’t blame you for thinking too much. You’re just too worried about me.”
If Chu An was worried about her, with Chu An’s personality, he definitely wouldn’t think so much. In fact, in a short moment, he had even thought of the most disadvantageous aspect.
Only when Chu An was so nervous did Gu Xiao completely calm down.
Regarding Ji Chen’s guess about Gu Xiao’s first life, the two of them completely forgot about it that night, as if it had never happened at all.
The next morning, the two of them packed their things and left the villa in a good mood. They went to the villa where the Chu family was.
After experiencing a journey that was originally only 40 minutes long, and being stuck in a traffic jam for an hour and a half before reaching the Chu family villa on the day of the festival, both Chu An and Gu Xiao felt a trace of exhaustion.
The two of them got out of the car and handed the keys to the servant. They stood at the door and looked at each other. They could see the helplessness and exhaustion in each other’s eyes.
“I suddenly feel that it would have been better for us to take the subway this time,” Gu Xiao said jokingly.
Chu An was only silent for a second before nodding in agreement. “When we go back later, let’s take the subway!”
The subway in the city went in all directions. There were many other stations that could be reached, and it was also more convenient.
Of course, for Gu Xiao and Chu An, not being stuck in a traffic jam was the best convenience.
The two of them stood at the door and looked at each other. After sorting out their emotions, they entered the Chu family villa together.
Mr Chu and Mrs Chu were already waiting for Chu An and Gu Xiao in the living room. When they saw the two of them, a trace of joy flashed across their eyes. Mrs Chu even stood up and walked towards them..
