Chapter 1061: The Secret Comes to Light (Part 1)

As they spoke, Gu Yuan reached out and held Ning Wan’s small hand.

Ning Wan’s whole body stiffened, instinctively wanting to pull her hand back, but Gu Yuan didn’t give her the chance.

Gu Yuan’s hand was strong, though it was held loosely, the grip wasn’t too strong nor too weak, just enough to hold Ning Wan’s hand tightly, making her unable to move or pull it back.

Ning Wan glared at Gu Yuan’s neatly trimmed sideburns, seeing a faint, elusive smile at the corner of his mouth.

“Gu Yuan, you…”

Gu Yuan didn’t move.

“Let go…”

Ning Wan tried hard to pull her hand back, but Gu Yuan’s grip tightened slightly, just enough to prevent her from breaking free.

She panicked a bit, “Gu Yuan, let me go!”

Little Wan…

This form of address stunned Ning Wan, what was Gu Yuan trying to do?

“I know it’s abrupt to say this all of a sudden, but I don’t want to wait any longer.”

Gu Yuan said as he turned his head to look at her, “Little Wan, I, I like you! Probably from the moment I met you five years ago, I fell in love at first sight.”

Ning Wan was dazed.

She knew Gu Yuan liked her.

But she didn’t expect that Gu Yuan fell in love with her at first sight.

Does that mean he’s liked her for five years?

Gu Yuan took a deep breath and continued:

“I know what’s on your mind, you don’t have to respond to me right away, I just want to stay silently by your side. I know, all along, your eyes have only been on Jinyan, but it’s okay, I’m willing to wait for you.”

“…”

“I know, maybe you can’t accept me right away, but I still hope you can give me a chance. Perhaps one day you’ll find, if you look back, there is someone not too bad.”

As soon as Gu Yuan’s voice fell, there was a burst of footsteps from outside, which gradually stopped, exactly at the doorway.

Hearing the sound, Ning Wan and Gu Yuan turned their heads in shock, just in time to see Yan Xue walking in from outside.

The three of them were all stunned.

Clearly, Yan Xue didn’t expect that when she just arrived at the ward, she would accidentally overhear Gu Yuan’s confession to Ling Wan.

What she didn’t expect was to inadvertently realize a problem.

She was dumbfounded.

After a few seconds, she came back to her senses, “Gu Yuan, you… you’ve liked Little Wan for five years? But… didn’t you like Jinyan before? I once thought you and Jinyan… you two were…”

Gu Yuan never expected that his confession would be overheard by Yan Xue, and his unintended confession revealed a fact—

Lu Jinyan was never actually gay!

At this moment, Yan Xue’s brows furrowed, and her face gradually darkened.

“Gu Yuan, tell me truthfully, between you and Jinyan, and Ning Wan, what’s true, and what’s false?!”

Yan Xue’s face turned cold, speaking sharply.

Gu Yuan’s heart skipped a beat, at a loss for words, not knowing how to explain.

If he admitted, he and Lu Jinyan had teamed up to deceive Yan Xue, and they weren’t actually gay, wouldn’t that be betraying his good friend?

But if he didn’t admit it, then how should he explain to Ning Wan?

He’s waited five whole years, finally getting his chance now to confess to Ning Wan.

What should he do?

For a moment, Gu Yuan was caught in a dilemma.

It was at this time, outside the ward, that another female voice suddenly appeared, “I can give an explanation for this matter.”

The people in the ward turned to look at the doorway, to find Wen Duoduo standing there.
