Gu Yusheng had thrown her so hard that Qin Zhi 'ai had to take a few steps back. She didn't stop until she hit the billboard on the side of the street.
The billboard was made of extremely hard metal. Qin Zhi 'ai's back hurt when she hit it, and tears almost came out of her eyes.
She closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths. She stood stiffly against the billboard for a long time before the pain finally subsided.
She slowly straightened her body and walked slowly to the side of the road. Gu Yusheng's car had already disappeared. There were only different kinds of cars, flashing red lights, passing by in front of her at different speeds.
Somehow, Qin Zhi 'ai suddenly remembered that when they had dinner at the Gu Mansion that night, Gu Yusheng had pulled out the dining chair for her like a gentleman. He had thoughtfully put her favorite dishes on her plate and ladled her favorite soup. When she had been eating fish, he had been so sharp that he had picked out the fish bones that she had almost stuffed into her mouth.
His performance had been impeccable. He had been the perfect image of a good husband who doted on his wife. He had made her grandfather, who had dreamed of a peaceful life with her, very happy.
Seeing that Grandpa was happy, the servants in the Gu Mansion were also happy. As for Gu Changle, there was a smile on her face all the time. She looked happy and satisfied, but no one knew how tormented she was for the whole night.
She knew that he had only been acting.
However, even though she knew that he had only been acting, when he had pretended to be nice to her, her heart had still been beating uncontrollably.
Because she liked him.
She had liked him from a long time ago.
Even two years ago, when they had finally met and he had forgotten her, she had still liked him.
Therefore, even though she knew that his kindness to her was fake, she couldn't help but feel her heart beat faster and she couldn't help but blush.
She was afraid that she would be too obvious and reveal her true feelings. All night, she could only torment herself in her heart, reminding herself over and over again that they were just acting.
Qin Zhi 'ai didn't know how long she had stood on the side of the road in a daze. By the time she had hailed a taxi to get home, it was almost 11: 00 p.m.
The light in the living room was on. Qin Zhi 'ai thought the housekeeper was still awake, so she entered the password without thinking too much, opened the door, and entered the house.
The person in the room probably heard the noise and came over. Qin Zhi 'ai still thought it was the housekeeper, so she didn't look up at the source of the noise. She lowered her head and went to change her shoes. Halfway through, the person said, "Young Madam, you're back."
Qin Zhi 'ai suddenly stopped changing her shoes and froze for a moment before looking at the person who had come. It wasn't the housekeeper, but Nanny Zhang from the Gu Mansion.
Before Qin Zhi 'ai could ask, Nanny Zhang gave her the answer. "Young Madam, you left the bracelet in the bathroom when you were having dinner at the old house."
With that, Nanny Zhang took out a beautiful pearl bracelet and handed it to Qin Zhi 'ai.
After taking the bracelet, Qin Zhi 'ai suddenly remembered that she had gone to wash her hands before dinner. She had thought that the bracelet was in the way, so she had taken it off. Later, because Gu Yusheng had called her for dinner, she had forgotten to take it with her after washing her hands. "It's just a bracelet. You can give it to me when you go to the Gu Mansion. There's no need to come here in the middle of the night."
