Back Then, I Adored You
chapter-116

After saying that, Gu Yusheng turned around and walked out. When he walked several feet away, he stopped in fear that Qin Zhi’ai would really call his grandfather.

He thought for several seconds, then took several steps back, adding to Qin Zhi’ai, “Don’t say anything about me to grandpa! If grandpa calls and blames me, wait and see what I’ll do to you!”

Then Gu Yusheng strode away.

…

Qin Zhi’ai didn’t pull the shirt off of her head until she heard Gu Yusheng starting his car in the garage.

She turned her head slowly and happened to see through the window that Gu Yusheng was driving out of the gate.

Perhaps because Gu Yusheng had suddenly come upstairs and said something to her, the conversation between Gu Yusheng and Wu Hao that afternoon resounded in her ears. Therefore, she had no mood for studying her script, and her heart that had just calmed down was now painful again.

She probably should had given up on him when she found the number he gave her was nonexistent eight years before.

Or she should have known that it was over between him and her two years earlier when she had run into him and heard the answer that he hadn’t remembered her at all after she had gathered all her courage just to stand in front of him.

She was unwilling to give up and let him disappear from her life.

After all, her love was so deep and unforgettable.

Therefore, she was willing to be a substitute for another woman to stay with him temporarily.

Never being remembered was the cruelest thing ever.

She thought Gu Yusheng might never have had her in his heart.

If he really did ever keep me in his mind, how could he have forgotten me?

If he really did, he should have noticed something, although I changed my appearance. She felt upset that he had forgotten her completely.

–

At noon the next Monday, Qin Zhi’ai received a call from Xiaowang to remind her about the party that evening.

Xiaowang had said he would pick her up at six o’clock, but actually, he had arrived at half past five o’clock.

At that time, Qin Zhi’ai had already finished her makeup, so she took a random dress and matched it with a pair of high heels the same color, then she walked downstairs.

Xiaowang had already waited for her by the car for a while. Seeing her coming out of the villa, he immediately pulled the door open. Qin Zhi’ai thanked him, but when she bent down to get in the car, she saw Gu Yusheng sitting in the backseat, leaning against the seat with his eyes closed.

Didn’t he say he would tell Xiaowang to pick me up? Why is he also here?

Qin Zhi’ai displaying good manners involuntarily, got into the car carefully and sat next to Gu Yusheng.

Xiaowang closed the door, going around the front to get in the car and started it.

It was quiet in the car with no one making a sound.

Gu Yusheng kept his eyes closed, his relaxing body looking like he had really fallen asleep.

Qin Zhi’ai’s tense nerves gradually relaxed. She had stared outside the window without blinking for a while, but now she could move her eyes somewhere else.
