Gu Qingyuan and Lu Xiao had an agreement, but such an agreement almost served no purpose.
If possible, Gu Qingyuan naturally hoped that Lu Xiao would keep his promise, however, that was almost impossible. Lu Xiao merely wanted to use him, and once he achieved his goal, he would discard him like an abandoned chess piece. Gu Qingyuan was well aware of this.
It was precisely because Gu Qingyuan understood this that he could be so indifferent. Anyway, it had already come to this, there was no better choice, so doing this now wasn't necessarily bad.
Moreover, his current thought was simple—to attain Shen Biran's forgiveness would naturally be the best outcome. There was nothing better than achieving that, and if that's the case, there was certainly no other necessity.
