Lu Bancheng glanced at Gu Yusheng, knowing that he might have something to talk to him about. He nodded and replied, "Okay."
Gu Yusheng didn't reply. He turned a corner at the intersection ahead and drove to the Four Seasons Hotel.
…
In the hotel cafe in the early morning, there was no one but two or three waiters.
Soothing music was playing in the cafe. Gu Yusheng and Lu Bancheng followed the waiters to a table by the window.
After sitting down, the waiters handed them the wine list. Gu Yusheng didn't look at it, but asked Lu Bancheng to order.
Lu Bancheng, who had drunk a lot of wine, felt a little sick to his stomach, so he ordered a cup of black tea. Gu Yusheng said, "Same."
After the waiters left, Lu Bancheng adjusted the pillow behind his waist and found a comfortable position to sit down before he said, "Tomorrow morning's flight?"
"Yes," Gu Yusheng answered softly, staring out the window at the brightly lit city.
"You didn't go home?"
Gu Yusheng didn't answer. He wanted to go back to see his grandfather, but he didn't want to see Liang Doukou.
Lu Bancheng understood what Gu Yusheng meant. After a while, he said, "You really don't plan to go back to Beijing?"
He hadn't planned to come back … if he hadn't met that girl at West University this afternoon.
Gu Yusheng's eyes became a little absent-minded as he stared out of the French window.
When little troublemaker had left, the fact that he and Liang Doukou hadn't registered their marriage had been exposed. His grandfather, who had never hurt him since he was a child, had been so angry that he had slapped him on the spot.
He had his own plans. It was impossible for him to marry Liang Doukou.
It was impossible before he had met little troublemaker, and it was even more impossible after he had fallen in love with her.
His grandfather had argued with him many times, but he was so determined that his grandfather couldn't do anything about it. At that time, his grandfather was about to compromise and wanted to apologize to the Liang family with twenty-five percent of the Gu Company's shares.
He had no objection. The reason why he had turned a blind eye to Liang Doukou all these years was to make his grandfather happy.
Until that night … On the night of Lu Bancheng's birthday, he received a call that his grandfather had been in a car accident and Liang Doukou had risked her life to save him.
It was the Liang Family who saved his grandfather's life twice. His grandfather, who originally wanted to compromise, immediately changed his mind and began to force him to get married with unprecedented determination. He even ignored his own opinion and directly sent a betrothal gift to the Liang Family to set a date for the wedding.
At that time, he really had no other choice, so he went from Beijing to Shanghai.
Liang Doukou wants to marry him, doesn't she? Since he wasn't coming back, she would just have to wait. If she didn't give up after a year, then she would wait for two years. If two years wasn't enough, then she would wait for three years … One day, the Liang Family wouldn't be able to hold on any longer. After all, a girl's youth couldn't be wasted.
But after one afternoon and one night, he suddenly had the idea of returning.
He understood what it meant to be back.
But if he didn't come back, he was afraid that he would miss out on something.
After all … he had already missed out on so much.
He was afraid that if he didn't work hard to grasp some things, he would end up with nothing in the end and die alone.
The waitress served two cups of black tea and gently placed them on the table. "Sirs, please enjoy."
Her soft words startled Gu Yusheng. He stared at the blurred lights in the distance and blinked his eyes. Instead of answering Lu Bancheng's question, he said inexplicably, "Bancheng, I met a girl today. I always think it's her."
