The black figure staggered past, and Gu Xingchen glanced at it with a sinister look in his eyes.
At that moment, Rong Shang turned around to close the door.
The man looked up and saw her.
His dark eyes gleamed, and his stunningly beautiful face was filled with a deep and cold indifference.
I don't know what he's thinking.
Rong Shang withdrew her gaze, her hand already on the doorknob.
He suddenly stepped forward, pushed his way in, and his tall figure squeezed in.
"Hey you..."
Stop walking.
Gu Xingchen frowned as he looked at the pool of blood on the ground.
"He's causing you trouble again?"
"Um."
She let go, and Rong Shang stepped forward, stopping when she reached his side.
When Gu Xingchen turned her head and looked over, her gaze urgent.
Rong Shang shook her head. "I'm fine."
She looked at him; the man's pupils were bloodshot.
It's probably because of staying up late.
Turning her face away, Rong Shang grinned, "You're still awake?"
"still……"
"well."
He suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.
Rong Shang glanced at him and tried to struggle, but he turned to the side and hugged her.
"You don't like me because you're not attracted to me, not because you have someone you like, right?"
He didn't know why he suddenly asked her that question.
Rong Shang frowned and tried to push him away, but he tightened his grip and hugged her even tighter.
"Tell me, is it true that you don't have someone you like?"
I didn't like anyone, so I rejected him.
Not because...
"yes."
One word severed all his thoughts and speculations.
Gu Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief, and the hand around her waist relaxed.
Since that's the case, he was relieved.
"..."
Turning her head, Rong Chang's gaze was deep.
The air was filled with the pleasant scent of jasmine emanating from the man.
Even his taste was so familiar.
Rong Chang was momentarily dazed.
When she came to her senses, she pushed him away.
"You are good in every way, and someone will treat you sincerely."
The subtext is: that person isn't me.
Gu Xingchen chuckled.
There was some helplessness, and some bitterness.
"Right?"
He raised his head and took a deep breath.
Does this count as having made things clear with him?
Perhaps after today, Gu Xingchen will have a change of heart and will stop bothering her.
Isn't it great?
Why did she feel something was off?
My mind keeps replaying something that happened a long, long time ago.
Right now, she doesn't even realize she's frowning.
Gu Xingchen noticed it and reached out to stroke her brow.
Rong Shang was startled. When she came to her senses, she saw the tenderness in his eyes. "Don't frown."
"Frowning doesn't look good."
He bent down slightly in front of her to look directly at her. "Are you troubled by something too?"
Would you mind telling me?
Regardless of the past or the present.
Gu Xingchen noticed that he was still very concerned about this woman.
I don't want her to be troubled by anything, nor do I want her to have anything on her mind.
"How about I tell you about my situation?" Knowing she wouldn't tell him anything, Gu Xingchen smiled and took the initiative to talk about his own affairs.
Rong Shang glanced at him at that moment, her expression indifferent.
She neither agreed nor refused.
Gu Xingchen nodded and straightened up.
"I once loved someone."
"I pursued her for a very long time, and when she finally fell in love with me, I felt like the happiest person in the world."
"It's a pity that some things happen so suddenly, and we've separated again."
As he said this, he turned to look at her, his gaze deep and thoughtful.
"Now, it seems she's forgotten about me."
