Chapter 217 How many white moonlights does he actually have?
The living room of the Phoenix Villa was eerily empty.
Everything became cold and boring.
Lin Wei looked at the man's blue mug, standing side by side next to her white water glass.
The image that once stirred her heart has now become glaringly jarring.
An overwhelming emotion surged within me, and I uncontrollably wanted to grab the blue cup and throw it in the trash can.
It was as if only in this way could all traces of his existence be erased.
But the emotion was fleeting; she held onto the cup and ultimately didn't drop it.
A wounded heart beats weakly in its chest.
What it holds is the sorrow and pain of two lifetimes overlapping.
Betrayal by her lover was a nightmare that Lin Wei could never shake off.
That scene, which had terrified her countless times, hovered around her neck, making it hard for her to breathe.
But...she was so close to happiness...
She didn't believe it; she thought it was all a lie.
Lin Wei poured herself a glass of ice water, but when she brought it to her lips, she realized her hands were trembling badly.
The cold liquid slid down her throat, bringing her to a moment of clarity.
His gaze also became firm.
They've come this far, and even if it's over, she wants to get to the bottom of it.
Lin Wei took out her phone and dialed Gu Jingcheng's number.
The phone rang for a moment before being answered.
Gu Jingcheng's voice remained gentle on the other end.
"Weiwei, what's wrong?"
"Who is it? Mr. Gu, checking up on things so late at night?"
Lin Wei's feet sank, and her knuckles gripping the phone turned white.
When are you coming back?
"Are you home yet? I'm coming back now."
"good."
At the Honey-Colored Restaurant, Gu Jingcheng put away his phone.
"Sorry, something came up at home, I have to go back now."
An Wanrong raised an eyebrow, her face carrying a playful, teasing expression.
"Oh, Mr. Gu, are you... keeping a mistress? Why are you in such a hurry to go back?"
Gu Jingcheng glanced at her, his tone familiar.
"When will you be able to change your manly nature and settle down?"
An Wanrong leaned forward slightly, smiling half-jokingly.
"Haven't I been...waiting for you all this time?"
Gu Jingcheng knew An Wanrong's personality; if they continued talking, it would never end.
He stopped talking and got up decisively.
"I'm leaving now, I've already paid the bill."
Seeing the man's hurried steps, An Wanrong's smile faded.
A shrewd look appeared on his face.
That project in the east of the city is practically a sure thing...
The An family's comeback is just around the corner.

Inside Phoenix Villa,
Lin Wei sat quietly on the sofa in the living room, with only a floor lamp casting a dim, yellowish light.
Her shadow stretched long, like a statue, motionless.
That scene kept replaying in my mind.
Gu Jingcheng gently put the necklace on An Wanrong.
An Wanrong looked up, her face beaming with happiness...
"She was once Gu Jingcheng's arranged marriage partner..."
"They were originally a perfect couple..."
"That must be President Gu's white moonlight..."
Pei Haoming's words, along with this scene, swirled and magnified repeatedly in her mind.
The arranged marriage partner...my white moonlight...
How many "white moonlight" figures does he actually have?
One Bai Qianqian wasn't enough, so now there's An Wanrong?
Haha, he really has a lot of "white moonlight" (idealized women)...
The more she tried to sort out her thoughts, the more chaotic they became.
Various speculations and doubts swirled in my chest.
She felt as if she had returned to that self-torturing past.
Lin Wei suddenly stood up from the sofa, looked at her reflection in the French windows, and mocked herself.
When did she become so insecure?
We can ask Gu Jingcheng when he gets back.
Is there anything else she cannot bear?
This time, she will not leave without a word.
