After dumping the poor tycoon in 2008
"that……"
Jiang Ming stepped forward, intending to act as a peacemaker.
Gu Shili stared at him, "You want to join too?"
Jiang Ming: "???"
Join in? What do you mean, join in?
What kind of insolent and lewd words are these?
It's better not to be a peacemaker.
He silently took a step back.
"What's wrong, Mr. Qi? Are you reluctant to part with it again?"
As Gu Shi spoke, his peripheral vision fell on the wheelchair by the roadside.
Qi Dong had no answer at all; some things shouldn't have been discussed in the open.
He said in a deep voice, "Mr. Gu, let's talk another day."
But everyone knows that at this moment, what he was thinking about was how to persuade Qi An'an to go along with Gu Shi in private.
At this moment, the wheelchair had already arrived in front of the three people.
A slender hand reached out and took the room key.
A black card, its gold edges gleaming coldly, landed in her palm.
"I can go with you right now."
Qi An'an lowered her eyes to hide her humiliation, her hand holding the room card trembling slightly.
Gu Shi slightly curled the corners of his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes, which only made him seem even colder.
Qi Dong realized what was happening and murmured, "An'an..."
But he did not stop it.
Jiang Ming sighed silently.
——
At the Haitang Grand Hotel, Qi An'an abandoned her wheelchair and slowly followed behind Gu Shi.
But he walked fast and soon left her far behind.
Qi An'an wasn't in a hurry.
She watched his retreating figure and thought to herself, "He really still wants to get revenge on me. He must feel good after humiliating me like that just now, right?"
Xiao Hei: "But why is he still so aggressive?"
Qi An'an: "..."
Right, logically speaking, wouldn't he feel relieved?
He trampled on her dignity, treating her like a prostitute.
Xiao Hei: "..." I don't understand.
One person, one rule, and then fell silent.
Qi An'an stepped into the elevator and stood next to Gu Shi.
As the elevator doors closed, she could clearly see his reflection in the bright mirror of the elevator doors.
She discovered that she was only suited for dating, not for dealing with these messy love and hate relationships.
She really wanted to grab him by the collar and ask, "Do you want to have another relationship? I won't fake my death again."
But he seemed more interested in skinning her alive.
Qi An'an stared blankly at the man's face.
"Giggle..."
Gu Shi's hands, hanging by his sides, were clenched tightly, and his knuckles made a terrible cracking sound.
Little Black cried out and burrowed into Qi An'an's hand, "Ahhh!"
Qi An'an came to her senses and silently moved to the side, no longer looking at him.
She's not cowardly; she just likes to follow her heart.
Xiao Hei: "..."
Qi An'an noticed the surveillance cameras and figured he wouldn't do anything to harm her on the spot, so she moved back to Shi's side and took the initiative to ask, "Why are you staying at a hotel?"
Gu Shi did not answer, but glanced at her.
She wisely shut her mouth.
The elevator doors opened, and Gu Shi quickly stepped out, while Qi An'an slowed down.
But no matter how slowly she walked, she still made her way into the luxurious suite.
Gu Shi ignored her, so she took out disposable slippers and put them on herself.
She stood in the entryway, looked around, and felt it was too deserted.
Gu Shi must have been living here for a while, but he doesn't seem to have added any of his own belongings. Everything is neat and orderly, but there's no sense of human presence at all.
Qi An'an's calves and knees were sore, but she didn't care. She sat down on the sofa and massaged her leg muscles.
"Buzz buzz buzz..."
Qi An'an rummaged through her small bag and took out her phone.
Her phone only had a few contacts at the moment, and Jin Tianyu somehow got her number and called her.
"An'an, where are you?!"
An anxious voice came through the phone.
"I……"
As soon as Qi An'an opened her mouth, she felt something approaching from behind.
She suddenly turned her head, but her phone was taken away.
Gu Shi looked at her expressionlessly, "Who are you asking for help?"
Qi An'an: "No, Tianyu just happened to call me."
After thinking for a moment, she felt that she wasn't humble enough, so she lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, did I disturb you?"
Gu Shi remained silent, and Jin Tianyu on the other end also fell silent.
Qi An'an shouldn't be like this.
Gu Shi lifted her chin, leaving a red mark because he used too much force.
His dark eyes were fixed on her face, as if he had a lot to say, but he only uttered a few words, "Go wash up."
Qi An'an: "Oh."
His disdainful look made Qi An'an lower her head again.
She forgot about Jin Tianyu on the other end of the phone and turned to go to the bathroom.
She breathed a sigh of relief after closing the door. "He just loves seeing me look so pathetic."
Xiao Hei: "Mmm!"
Qi An'an felt that if she provoked him any further, he would break the surface calm and become hysterical.
But he might not be very friendly to her when he's like that.
Gu Shi was about to throw her phone aside when Jin Tianyu's mocking voice came from the other end, "Gu Shi, I know you're listening. Now that you've climbed up, you want to get revenge, right? Then come at me. Making things difficult for a girl, have you no shame?"
"On what grounds are you telling me this?" Gu Shi's face remained expressionless.
"Don't pretend to have amnesia with me. An'an wanted to break up with you, but you were the one who kept pestering her, and I was the one who beat you up. What right do you have to hurt An'an?" Jin Tianyu sneered. "Gu Shi, you will never be good enough for An'an!"
"You're not worthy?"
Gu Shi's consistently calm tone only fueled Jin Tianyu's rage. "Gu Shi, you still like An'an, don't you? But if it weren't for the Qi family, she wouldn't even glance at you again! Just like before! Who do you think you are? An'an is such a proud person, and you—"
Gu Shi, however, didn't want to listen any longer and abruptly interrupted, "I heard you're newly married, congratulations."
Jin Tianyu was immediately silenced, as if someone had choked him.
——
Qi An'an simply took a bath; the scent of the essential oil was still her favorite.
Emerging from the bathtub, she exuded a sweet jasmine fragrance, as if she had been marinated.
She changed into a white bathrobe, then suddenly realized she had no clothes to wear.
Xiao Hei suddenly appeared: "...But this seems to make it easier for Gu Shi to humiliate you."
Qi An'an: "??"
You are not a clean leader!
Xiao Hei: "..."
You're so clean, so aloof!
After preparing herself mentally, Qi An'an opened the bathroom door and saw Gu Shi standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
Qi An'an walked towards him, inexplicably recalling that rainy night.
Gu Shi's rented room was very small, not even as big as her walk-in closet. After she took a shower, she wore his clothes. He stood nervously by the farthest window and told her to go to sleep first, as he needed to write a speech for someone else.
She knew he just wanted to give her the bed, but she pretended not to know and forced herself to move closer to him.
She was originally teasing him on purpose, but then somehow, she saw his red ears and neck and kissed him on the corner of his mouth.
She joked, "Gu Shi, are you all red?"
The boy's clear, cool eyes seemed much deeper and more alluring. He said, "Would you like to take a look?"
She watched it later.
Looking back, Qi An'an felt ashamed of herself.
He just wanted to show her, but she attacked him directly.
The chill in the air brought Qi An'an back to her senses.
She walked to Gu Shi's side, and their reflections were seen in the glass in front of them.
One tall and one short, set against the backdrop of a night scene illuminated by countless lights, they resemble a painting.
