I raised stunning young ladies, but they all wanted to possess me.

Gu Yan specially had someone refer to the exterior of that Ferris wheel from back then, and the interior has been thoroughly reinforced and partially restored using the latest safety technology.

His original plan was that when Cecilia saw the familiar Ferris wheel, her emotions would inevitably fluctuate violently, and she might even lose control of her powers.

At this moment, Bai Zikong, wearing a hidden earpiece, will speak key words under his remote guidance, leading Cecilia to face her pain, try to let go, and thus greatly repair her mental ruins.

But absolutely not now!

Bai Zikong has disappeared!

He stepped up himself!

Moreover, it seems that Cecilia's mental ruins have been repaired enough to last for a year!

If I let her see this Ferris wheel now, wouldn't I have to work overtime to deal with her emotional outburst again?

Who knows what kind of trouble this might cause!

With this in mind, Gu Yan made up her mind that she absolutely could not let her leave through this exit!

Miss Cecilia.

He calmed himself down and tried to make his voice sound casual and natural. "Shall we go out through that exit over there?"

"I think I just saw a themed restaurant over there; the ambiance looked pretty good."

"I'm a little hungry. Would you mind having lunch with me, Miss Cecilia?"

He pointed to an inconspicuous emergency exit to his side and rear.

Cecilia sat in her wheelchair, her icy blue eyes fixed on him silently, without giving an immediate reply.

After the roller coaster came to a complete stop, the lights inside the carriages were a bit brighter than when it was moving.

She suddenly maneuvered her wheelchair closer to Gu Yan, then raised her hand and gently touched Gu Yan's cheek near her ear with her slender index finger.

There was a very fine, almost invisible trace of light brown soil.

I don't know if this was added when Shen Youyao and I accidentally fell on the lawn.

It was something I accidentally brushed against while checking various parts at the last minute, as the director.

Gu Yan herself had forgotten.

Cecilia withdrew her hand, and there seemed to be a very fine grainy feeling left on her fingertips.

Her icy blue pupils reflected Gu Yan's slightly nervous face.

"Master Gu... no, that's not right."

"You seem to really don't want me to leave through that exit?"

She paused, her tone still calm, yet her clarity of thought startled Gu Yan.

"First, when Mr. Gu said 'wait a moment,' his pupils contracted for 0.3 seconds. This is a subconscious reaction when a person faces a potential threat or needs to respond urgently."

"Secondly, when you suggested changing the exit, your fingers unconsciously rubbed the armrest of the wheelchair, which was a subtle movement of tension and unnaturalness."

"Third, and most importantly..."

Her gaze fell on the mark she had wiped away on Gu Yan's face. "Mr. Gu's face has very fresh grass clippings and dirt marks."

I judge that they came from different places.

"The texture is inconsistent with the clean environment inside this roller coaster project."

"Of course, this soil isn't just from that Miss Shen."

"There are other places too."

She didn't finish her sentence, but her meaning was already clear.

Gu Yan was dumbfounded.

He was starting to lose his composure.

What kind of Schrödinger's intelligence does this female lead have?!

When you're being silly, you can't even see through the over-the-top acting of those actors.

When he's being shrewd, he can actually pick out so many details and logical chains from a tiny trace of dirt on his face and a few micro-expressions and small movements that he himself didn't even notice!

Could it be that she already knew it was an act?

That shouldn't be!

If she could tell, why didn't she expose her?

Didn't she say herself that she hates being lied to the most?!

What Gu Yan didn't remember was that there was a saying...

How long you can fool me sometimes doesn't depend on how clever your deception is, but on how long I want you to fool me.

Girls are sometimes such a wonderful thing.

They can be sweet and soft, as cute as little animals, but their thoughts and intuition are as elusive as clouds and mist.

One second they might be angry about something trivial, but the next second they might soften their heart because of one of your clumsy actions.

Even though Gu Yan is a psychology master who can see into the hearts of many people, when he is in the midst of a situation, he may not be able to immediately understand some subtle emotional threads and hidden thoughts.

This is what they call "the one involved is confused, while the bystander sees clearly."

We can often see through other people's emotional predicaments, but we can't untangle the mess in our own hearts.

Cecilia watched Gu Yan's ever-changing expression, a faint, complex emotion flashing deep within her icy blue eyes.

"Mr. Gu, what exactly is outside that exit?"

"Or rather, what are you hiding from?"

"I don't want you to go. Can you... not go?"

Gu Yan looked at Cecilia, remained silent for a few seconds, and finally spoke frankly.

His handsome face showed undisguised worry as he looked at Cecilia.

Cecilia's heart softened. The boy's eyes were clear, and the concern in them was genuine.

But that growing premonition, originating from the depths of her heart, was like an invisible hand pushing her.

She gently shook her head, her voice soft yet carrying an unwavering resolve: "If it were any other time..."

"I might listen to you."

"But Mr. Gu, shouldn't the next project have already been prepared for me?"

"I want to go and see."

For some reason, her heart started racing as she looked at that ordinary exit.

An almost instinctive sixth sense was screaming at her, urging her to go there.

Even the image of her mother's gentle voice faintly appeared in her mind.

After saying that, before Gu Yan could speak again, she had already steered her wheelchair and slowly drove straight toward the exit.

Gu Yan rubbed her temples with a hint of helplessness.

What kind of nonsense is this!

But he also knew Cecilia's personality; once she made up her mind, nothing could change it.

"I must have owed you something in my past life."

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Yan sighed inwardly and quickly followed, muttering to herself.

Cecilia maneuvered her wheelchair and was the first to exit the roller coaster structure.

It was already dusk outside.

The gentle glow of the orange-red sunset cast a warm golden hue over the world, illuminating Cecilia's stunning profile.

She raised her head slightly, looking up at the sky, as if wanting to take a breath of fresh air.

However, the next second.

Her entire body, along with her wheelchair, seemed to freeze in place, as if instantly immobilized.

Because at this moment, what was clearly reflected in her icy blue eyes was a huge, magnificent Ferris wheel slowly rotating in the sunset.

Not the ordinary kind.

Its color scheme, the lines of certain decorations, even the outline of the carriage...

All of them were strikingly similar to the one her mother had pushed her towards on that sunny afternoon in Italy, deep in her memory.
