Chapter 67: The Past

Did he really know my true identity?

他到底知不知道我的真实身份？

Did he truly love me as a person or my status?

他真的是爱的自己这个人还是自己的身份？

He\''s so intelligent. He probably knew my true identity.

他那么聪明，很可能他是知道自己真实身份的。

Then, all those kinds of things he had done for her turned sour.

那么他对她的那些好就都变味了。

If he were so good to Gu Xiang, she would be deeply grateful because Gu Xiang was just an ordinary girl with no value other than herself.

如果你对顾湘这么好，那么我会感激涕零，因为顾湘只是一个普通女孩，没有价值，有的只是一个自己。

If he was good to Zhao Yanran, she didn’t need it. Plenty of people had been good to Zhao Yanran from childhood to adulthood. There was always someone better, and his kindness meant nothing to Zhao Yanran. It was like throwing a stone into the sea, incapable of making any waves.

如果你是对赵嫣然这么好，那我不稀罕，从小到大，对赵嫣然好的人多了去了，一直是只有更好，没有最好，你的那点好对于赵嫣然来说算不得什么，就像扔出的一颗石头在海边也激不起一朵浪花的那种。

People envied her for being born into privilege, but she sometimes envied those born into ordinary families where there could be normal feelings of love. But as Zhao Yanran, she couldn\''t afford to lose. She had to be cautious at every step.

世人羡慕我生于显赫，而我又何尝不羡慕自己生于普通，那样就会有寻常女儿家的正常情爱，可是作为赵嫣然，我输不起，只能严加防范，步步谨慎。

She wasn\''t just herself. She was Princess Zhao Yanran of the Zhao family!

她不是她自己，她是赵家的公主赵嫣然！

Now, her mother\''s psychological tactics are effective. Gu Xiang\''s last remaining hint of apology towards him also faded away.

现在她妈妈的攻心术起到了作用，顾湘内心对他最后的那一点点歉意也消失了。

If these two were to meet again, they might not even be considered ordinary friends anymore.

这两人若是再见，也许普通朋友也算不上了。

Gu Xiang completed the enrollment procedures for studying in the United States, but after just a few days of attending classes, she received a notice to pay her rent.

顾湘在美国办理了入学手续，才上了十几天学，她住的地方就要她交房租了。

Various bills and expenses started piling up, and Gu Xiang couldn\''t help but find it ironic.
