Deep Feelings, Shallow Fate (9)

Same room and same bed?

As soon as those words crossed Qin Zhi Ai’s brain, she recalled what Gu Yu Sheng had done to her on that bed.

Instantly, she was engulfed by an indescribable sense of nervousness and panic. In mere seconds, Qin Zhi Ai’s palms were already covered with a thick layer of sweat.

Qin Zhi Ai knew that the reason Gu Yu Sheng had treated her cruelly those several times was because his Grandfather had forced him to go home.

He had come home on his own initiative today. What reason would he have to do anything to her? Nevertheless, she still didn’t have the courage to be alone with him on the same bed……

But, he wouldn’t want to sleep together with her either anyway. And he had also previously told her to stay as far away from him as possible if she ever sees him……

Even though that was a fact she already knew, thinking about it still made Qin Zhi Ai feel a slight piercing pain in her heart.

That is his bedroom. She can’t drive him out……

Qin Zhi Ai cast down her eyes and stared at the phone in her hand for a little while. After that, she raised her head, and was about to shout for the housekeeper to brew her some tea, but then saw the housekeeper come out of the kitchen holding a plate of fruit.

Qin Zhi Ai opened her mouth to speak, but the housekeeper beat her to it and said with a beaming smile, “Miss, you’ll be eating fruit with Mr Gu?”

Qin Zhi Ai lightly shook her head, the corner of her eyes floating to Gu Yu Sheng’s direction, and then said in a soft and lowered voice, “Not today, I still have a script to memorize that I need to use in two days, I’ll be going upstairs first.”

A short pause later, Qin Zhi Ai voiced the words she had been preparing to say, “Go brew me some tea, and bring it to the sunroom.”

“Okay, Miss.”

Qin Zhi Ai gave a faint smile and didn’t say another word. She put away her phone and went upstairs.

When her silhouette disappeared at the turn of the stairs, Gu Yu Sheng, who had maintained the same crossed-legged pose on the sofa the entire time without moving a single inch, slanted his head slightly, and looked at the stairs. The expression on his face showed absolutely no change. After around half a minute, he s.h.i.+fted his gaze, reached out a hand for the cigarette box on the table, lit a cigarette, and smoked while continuing to watch TV.

At eleven o’clock, Gu Yu Sheng turned off the TV, went to the dining room to pour a cup of warm water and after drinking, went upstairs to the second floor.

As he started to push his bedroom door open, he turned his head and looked at the gla.s.sed sunroom at the very end of the corridor.

The chandelier was on, emitting a bright, dazzling light. The girl sat on a rattan chair, holding a script in both hands, reading earnestly.

The greenery around her looked verdant and lush. There were several pots of gardenia and jasmine in perfect bloom.

Less than ten seconds later, Gu Yu Sheng moved his eyes away. The hand holding the door faltered for a moment before he opened the door and went into the room.

After a comfortable hot bath, he came out from the bathroom, but as before, he was the only person in the room.

Gu Yu Sheng glanced outside the window. The lights all around had already been extinguished; only the sunroom emitted a pale glimmer of light.
