At this moment, the chill was unbearable, but he didnât have the face to ask Gu Qiaoqiao to lift his spell.
Because Zhou Xia was here too.
Gu Qiaoqiao didnât speak their language and naturally couldnât understand it, so the one who translated for Gu Qiaoqiao that night was undoubtedly Zhou Xia.
This was also the reason she suddenly became cold since that morning.
Even when she saw he was unwell, she didnât show the usual concern.
He knew that there was no future between him and Zhou Xia, and he had mentally prepared himself, but when the day came, he found that he still felt uncomfortable.
Of course, despite the discomfort, he had to endure it; the powerful female clan leader had the strongest opinion of him, even though his initial intention was to save her.
Because Gu Junbai was the benefactor of the female clan leader.
Moreover, the Black Angel clan is known for their loyalty, even in this situation, Danny bore no resentment, just a bit of frustration. How did Gu Qiaoqiao, being so young, discover his issue and prepare in advance?
Otherwise, they might not have failed this time.
So, Danny stood at the gate, not far away were the elders of the clan. A row of cars stopped on the road, surrounding the female clan leader, joyous and uplifted.
And the Zhou family in this ancient castle, not only must they not harbor thoughts of harming them, but also have to protect them.
But he still wanted to ask for clarity.
Gu Qiaoqiao stood a few steps away, curiously watching those Black Angel clansmen.
He coughed lightly, took a deep breath, walked up to Gu Qiaoqiao, and finally asked, "Miss Gu, may I ask you something?"
Beside him, Zhou Xia glanced coldly at him, didnât walk away but shifted her gaze aside, not wanting to see him.
Previously, she must have been blind to actually think he was an excellent person.
Gu Qiaoqiao found it strange, seeing his reluctance to face Zhou Xia, clearly he should be avoiding her, yet he sought her out. It must be something important.
"Sure, go ahead." Gu Qiaoqiao readily agreed, actually curious about what Danny wanted to ask her.
"How did you find out I had a problem?" This was Dannyâs biggest question.
When he asked this, the two of them overheard and simultaneously took a step closer, but they didnât know what Danny was referring to. Judging by his expression, they wondered if he was dissatisfied with the clan leaderâs punishment and wanted to threaten Gu Qiaoqiao, so the older clan member named Thomas warned Danny not to do anything foolish that would upset the clan leader who had just returned.
Danny, agitated and helpless, told Thomas and the other companion the question he wanted to ask.
Thomas immediately fell silent, because he was equally curious.
If they hadnât been found out, how could things have become so embarrassing today?
Besides, walking the human world for so many years, ordinary people didnât know their true identity.
So several people looked at Gu Qiaoqiao.
Gu Qiaoqiaoâs clear eyes turned slightly, pondering briefly, there was nothing she couldnât say, she smiled warmly, "Do you remember the first time I met you?"
Danny nodded vigorously, "Of course I remember."
"I saw your black wings." Gu Qiaoqiao confessed candidly.
"How is that possible?" Danny stared at Gu Qiaoqiao in disbelief, "Even with your mana, my wings never appear during the day. You can ask Mr. Gu; he can know weâre Black Angels during the day but absolutely canât see the wings!"
Dannyâs face looked somewhat ashen, appearing slightly frightening under the moonlight.
"But I truly saw them, when you were kissing Zhou Xia!" Gu Qiaoqiao had to emphasize this.
After speaking, she hurriedly glanced at Zhou Xia and found Zhou Xia glaring at Danny with vicious eyes. Gu Qiaoqiaoâs expression suddenly became serious, "Danny, you owe the Zhou family an apology, especially Zhou Xia."
Then she saw Danny looking at Gu Qiaoqiao in disbelief, then at Zhou Xia, showing terror, as if Zhou Xia at this moment was some kind of monstrous creature, infuriating Zhou Xia so much she wanted to kick him.
Though her brother advised her not to get back at Danny today, there would be plenty of time later, as they still had to live on this land. A gentlemanâs revenge is never too late!
But she was furious, truly couldnât endure it.
Unfortunately, before Zhou Xia could act, Danny ran off.
Ran very fast, pushing aside clansmen in his way, stumbling all the way to his car, before anyone could react, he had already driven away.
Everyone looked at each other.
The female clan leader Tara looked displeased but couldnât do anything about it for now; she could only wait to return and punish the crazy Danny.
She kept apologizing to Gu Junbai.
Thomas was the most anxious, constantly asking Zhou Xia how she discovered it.
When Zhou Xia grumpily told Thomas it was because of the kiss that revealed the black wings, Thomas was utterly taken aback but also showed a slight inexplicable schadenfreude.
Really strange.
Zhou Xia couldnât help but ask the question.
Thomas readily explained to Zhou Xia that Black Angels unconsciously reveal their wings when kissing their beloved ones.
Moreover, the Black Angel clanâs greatest trait is loyalty, loyal to the clan leader, loyal to friends, loyal to their lover.
Once in a lifetime, only one love; once their heart is moved, they never change, even if the other changes, they stay devoted.
They almost always fall in love with their kind, so betrayal is almost nonexistent.
But Danny was different; clearly, Dannyâs future meant a lonely life.
Perhaps, as Huaxia people say, this was karma.
Thomas sympathized with Danny but had no way to help him, so he apologized to Zhou Xia on Dannyâs behalf, then left Siluo Manor with the female clan leaderâs group.
Gu Qiaoqiao naturally knew, Zhou Xia told her all about Danny without holding back.
Gu Qiaoqiao cheerfully said, "Serves him right!"
Indeed, serves him right.
Not worth sympathy.
However, Gu Qiaoqiao glanced at Zhou Xia, looking contemplative, Zhou Xia also looked unhappy, with somewhat complex emotions, but knowing Danny genuinely loved her, she felt much less discontent and anger.
Also, much more balanced.
Seeing Gu Qiaoqiaoâs expression, Zhou Xia hurriedly raised her hand to declare, "Qiaoqiao, there is no possibility between Danny and me anymore. He hurt me; perhaps I can forgive and forget, but the fact he harmed my mother is never forgivable!"
Zhou Xiaâs expression was solemn, as if making a vow.
Gu Qiaoqiao nodded, indeed.
Qin Sisi would never be at ease entrusting her daughter to someone who wanted to kill her.
These two were destined to have no fate.
So, she grabbed Zhou Xiaâs hand, eyebrows raised, "Letâs go, letâs see if thereâs any treasure left in the basement..."
