Back Then, I Adored You

Chapter 489: I Will Sleep in Yusheng’s Room (9)

Qin Zhi’ai, suffering with menstrual cramps, was wiped out by the long meeting. When Gu Yusheng finally ended it, she immediately closed her laptop and followed the group to leave.

In truth, Gu Yusheng had ended the meeting when he saw her looking so tired. And this was only the first half of the night. He was concerned about what she might think he would be doing the rest of the night.

Gu Yusheng suddenly called out, “Secretary Qin.”

Qin Zhi’ai stopped and turned around to look at Gu Yusheng. “Master Gu.”

Gu Yusheng did not immediately address her. Instead, he said to Xiaowang, who was organizing the documents, “Xiaowang, can I see you in your room? I need to talk about something with you.”

He realized that if he didn’t call out Xiaowang’s name, Qin Zhi’ai would think he was talking to her because he was looking at her when he said it.

Xiaowang responded with a “sure,” and then Gu Yusheng said to Qin Zhi’ai in a casual tone, “Can you get me tonight’s meeting notes by Monday?”

To make sure Qin Zhi’ai saw him walking into Xiaowang’s room, Gu Yusheng pointed his chin at a stack of files on the table and asked her to carry them for him. Gu Yusheng then walked out of the conference room first.

Qin Zhi’ai picked up the files on the table and walked after Gu Yusheng with Xiaowang.

…

Xiaowang’s room was right next to Qin Zhi’ai’s.

She put the files on the desk in Xiaowang’s room and said to Gu Yusheng, who had taken a seat in a chair, “Master Gu, I’m going to my room now.” Gu Yusheng nodded, and she hastily left with her laptop in her arms.

Once in her own room, Qin Zhi’ai, still holding her laptop, fell back on the bed like a board.

She had been so tired and sleepy at the meeting that she thought she would immediately fall asleep. Laying on the bed with her eyes closed, however, she could not fall asleep at all.

She had not inserted the room card to turn on the lights when she walked in the room, so when she opened her eyes the room was pitch black.

She laid on the bed for a long time in the dark thinking about Gu Yusheng.

Has he finish his talk with Xiaowang yet? Is he back in his room yet?

Qin Zhi’ai fumbled on the bed for her cell phone. She picked it up and checked the time.

Almost two in the morning.

The meeting ended an hour ago. They should have finished their discussion by now. Is he with her in his room?

Qin Zhi’ai stopped herself from thinking about it, but no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t.

Is Gu Yusheng kissing and touching Liang Doukou like he used to do with me?

As this intimate scene played out in her mind, Qin Zhi’ai painfully closed her eyes and gripped the blanket.
