Back Then, I Adored You

Chapter 107: Attractive Eyes That Can Captivate People (7)

He thought he might have imagined or misheard it because of the loud wind on the street.

Gu Yusheng had thought he would become the wild and carefree Gu Yusheng that day, no matter how much he was drawn to her calling out his name. He had thought that would be the case, but the annoyed feeling became worse when he saw her avoiding him.

He did many things that even he couldn’t understand.

For instance, he came home without anyone asking him to do so. On that one day, he had gone to pick her up in the rain. He had even asked Xiaowang to buy porridge for her.

Gu Yusheng was lost in thought for a while then tried to pull himself back to reality. He turned around and saw the porridge he had kicked on the floor.

He stared at the cold porridge emptily for a while. The thinking gave him a headache, but he still didn’t have an answer yet. He shook his head hard twice and took a cigarette out.

He thought to himself, Whatever. He wanted to stop thinking if he couldn’t figure it out.

He didn’t want to get married or be in any relationship. He did not want to fall in love with any woman. He had been acting strange recently. He must have gone crazy. He might become normal again with time.

Gu Yusheng satisfied himself with this explanation. He repeated the message many times before he finally felt better. He slowly stood up and walked to the desk. He made a call to the front desk and asked for the cleaning staff to come and clean the room. After the call, he grabbed his clothes and put them on before he walked to the other room.

Lu Bancheng didn’t talk to Gu Yusheng immediately after seeing him walk in, since he had upset Gu Yusheng not long before. Lu Bancheng sat a distance from Gu Yusheng and watched him for a while. Gu Yusheng looked like he had calmed down. Lu Bancheng held his cellphone and went up to Gu Yusheng. “Bro Sheng, Wu Hao is flying to Beijing early tomorrow morning. He asked if we have time to have lunch together.”

Gu Yusheng did seem calm. He casually shook his wine glass and responded to Lu Bancheng with, “Sure.”

“Where should we eat? Haozi has been waiting for us to text back an address,” Lu Bancheng said.

“You…” Gu Yusheng wanted to tell him to decide, but he paused after just a word. He thought of Liang Doukou. He saw her feet bleeding when she had tried to bend down to clean the car. Her feet had seemed to be hurting her. Xiaowang had left in a rush, so Gu Yusheng hadn’t gotten a chance to tell him to buy first aid supplies for her. Gu Yusheng didn’t know why he was thinking of her again when she was at home. He raised his glass and gulped down the wine. He said to Lu Bancheng, “You decide.”

“Haozi said he wanted to go to your house. He never got to see it after you bought it and did the renovations on it.” Lu Bancheng bit his lip and stopped talking.
