Chapter 247 Sincerity
Time flies, and winter comes in a blink of an eye.
The Yunque box was no longer as chaotic as before, and the table was filled with wine bottles.
Gu Chengyu leaned back on the sofa, his long legs casually draped over the coffee table. The cigar between his fingers was half-burned, but he didn't smoke much.
His face looked a little gloomy, not as lazy and arrogant as usual, but instead revealed an indescribable irritability.
"Tsk, our Young Master Gu looks so unsatisfied today, isn't he?"
Shen Que shook his wine glass and smiled like an old fox, "Why, are you tired of the little fairy so soon?"
Qin Yu also joined in the fun: "No way? The last time I saw that girl, she was so delicate and charming, just looking at her could make anyone's soul fall away. How could Cheng Yu get tired of her so quickly?"
Gu Chengyu glanced at them coldly, said nothing, picked up the wine glass on the table, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
He thought back to the recent nights when every time he looked for her, she was either reading a script or doing her homework, often completely ignoring him.
"Stop the fucking nonsense." Gu Chengyu said in a low voice, a little impatient, "It's annoying."
Zhou Yuan was sitting on a single sofa a little further away. Hearing this, he looked up at Gu Chengyu, his eyes thoughtful, but he didn't say anything.
Shen Que and Qin Yu exchanged glances and both saw something was wrong.
This gentleman has really encountered troubles, and it is probably related to that woman.
"Did you really have a fight?" Shen Que moved closer, speaking in a rare serious tone.
"That little girl looks very well behaved. She doesn't look like someone who would make you angry."
"Arguing?" Gu Chengyu sneered, his tone complicated: "She dares to argue with me?"
He paused, poured another glass of wine, his eyes dark and unclear: "She is very well behaved and knows how to stroke her fur."
"You have a lot of tricks to say to please me, and when you look at me, it's as if you are the only one in the world."
"Then why are you still worried?" Qin Yu was puzzled.
"You're just too damn good at coaxing me!" Gu Chengyu suddenly became a little irritable and put the wine glass down heavily.
"When you used me to deal with Lin Shu, you were so obedient, calling me Ah Yu all the time."
"Now that Lin Shu is gone, her career is flourishing and she's doing well in school. She doesn't need me as much anymore. She's even reluctant to try and coax me."
"She used to come over to me for kisses and hugs, but now? If I don't go over, she'll just hold the script and read it all night!"
The more he spoke, the angrier he became.
Gu Chengyu wanted any woman, but he chose to fall in love with this little thing that he didn't take seriously at first, and in the end, it seemed that she was just using him as a stepping stone?
"I've spoiled her for so long, giving her whatever she wants and protecting her like the apple of my eye, and this is what I get in return?"
His voice was filled with frustration and annoyance: "What a heartless little thing."
There was silence in the box for a moment.
Qin Yu smacked his lips. "Wow, I'm being ignored? Master Gu, you've come to this day too?"
Shen Que stroked his chin and analyzed: "It sounds like this girl is quite resourceful."
"The goal is clear, and we know how to leverage the momentum. Once we achieve our goal, the heat will drop."
"Smart, but also really cruel."
Zhou Yu'an, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly spoke up. His voice was gentle, but sharp: "Cheng Yu, if you see it so clearly, why are you still letting her do what she wants?"
Gu Chengyu was silent for a moment, then took another big gulp of wine.
Of course he could see it clearly.
Gu Chengyu has been in the love world for so many years. How could he not feel whether it was true dependence or false flattery?
The little girl was grateful to him, dependent on him, and even had a little inexplicable greed for him, but she lacked that kind of eagerness to have him.
He knew she might not like him that much.
But……
"She is young and well-behaved." Gu Chengyu's voice lowered with a hint of compromise.
"When you're with me, it's clean, and I'm the only man."
He thought of her soft and helpless look as she nestled in his arms, and her red eyes as she cried beneath him, and the anger in his heart inexplicably subsided a little.
"Maybe, I just haven't fully understood it yet." He seemed to be making excuses for himself, or trying to convince himself.
"I'll give her some more time."
He believed that as long as he continued to pamper her, protect her, let her get used to his presence and rely on his giving, one day, that false pretense would become true.
Gu Chengyu never failed to get what he wanted.
Including her true heart.
Shen Que and Qin Yu looked at each other and didn't say anything.
Zhou Yu'an was a little unhappy with this answer.
He picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
