Back Then, I Adored You

Chapter 126: I Don’t Hit Women!(6)

“She went to the bathroom.” Gu Yusheng sat on the sofa leisurely, playing with a cigarette with clean, slim fingers as he responded casually.

Then he seemed to remember something, for he slowly stopped spinning the cigarette.

She told me that she wanted to go to the bathroom, so I didn’t care much, but it seems she has been gone for quite a long time…

Thinking this, Gu Yusheng took his phone out of his pocket, touched the screen, and took a look at the time.

It turned out that forty minutes had passed inadvertently.

If Lu Bancheng hadn’t mentioned her, he almost would have forgotten that he took her there with him.

Gu Yusheng straightened his upper body, took a look around the extravagant, sparkling hall silently, but didn’t find the figure of that woman. His eyebrows wrinkled subconsciously.

She hasn’t come back for such a long time, and she’s not in the hall; is she avoiding me deliberately?

Gu Yusheng suddenly became a bit upset. He put the cigarette that he had played with into his mouth, flicked the lighter, and moved the flame close to the cigarette. But before the cigarette was lit, Gu Yusheng threw the lighter back onto the table in front of him. He then took out the unlit cigarette, flipped it slightly down into the ashtray, stood up, and walked towards the banquet hall.

“Brother Sheng, where are you going?” Left behind by Gu Yusheng, Lu Bancheng shouted at him, then followed.

Gu Yusheng ignored him as he walked to the bathroom, looking around.

“Are you looking for Xiaokou?” Lu Bancheng finally understood what Gu Yusheng was doing, then looked at the surrounding environment of the bathroom, saying, “Xiaokou should be here?”

Before Lu Bancheng finished his words, Gu Yusheng turned around and left with no emotion on his face.

Lu Bancheng hurried to follow him, saying, “Should I ask the others if they saw her?”

As he said that, he took a look around, then saw someone who was familiar with Liang Doukou. But when he had been about to ask that person, Gu Yusheng strode directly toward the door in the north wing of the hall, then pushed it open and entered.

Lu Bancheng quickened his pace to keep up with Gu Yusheng. When he had just opened his mouth, he saw Gu Yusheng standing on the stairs with his back to him, signalling for him to shut up.

Lu Bancheng immediately closed his mouth and looked past Gu Yusheng. There he saw a group of women standing on the balcony at the bottom of the stairs.

The one in the center being surrounded was “Liang Doukou,” whom they had been looking for.

She was speaking in a low voice. Due to the noise in the banquet hall behind them, Lu Bancheng and Gu Yusheng couldn’t clearly hear what she was talking about. With the faint light of only two lanterns, her cold eyes and calm face could be seen clearly. Compared to the women with angry expressions who surrounded her, she looked exceptionally chill, a sense of marvelous quietness around her body.
