Before tears could form in her eyes, she raised her hand and covered her face. She raised her head and took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the urge to cry.
She was no longer Wu Hao's girlfriend. She could no longer lean on his shoulder and cry when she was sad like she was in the past ten years.
Now, she only had herself. Even if she cried her heart out in the dead of night, no one would care or feel sorry for her.
So, there was nothing to cry about.
Moreover, Lu Bancheng was nothing to her, so why should she shed tears for him?
All he did was snatch her contract and embarrass her in front of another woman.
Wasn't it just that they had interacted in the past? He was living a luxurious life, while she was suffering. Tonight, the contrast was stark.
A woman could act coquettishly, cry, and be weak because she had a man who loved and spoiled her.
As for her, when Wu Hao betrayed her, when Lu Bancheng raped her, when she aborted the child that shouldn't have existed, her path was to be strong and treat herself well. There was no other path that she could take.
So, instead of feeling sad here, it was better to take a rest and think about where to find a better partner after losing Director Li's cooperation.
… …
Xu Wennuan had prepared a set of clothes in case she needed them, so she slept on the sofa in the company lounge and did not return to Lu Bancheng's apartment.
During the day, she was busy working in the company. In the evening, she went to the gourmet area near the company for dinner and then worked two hours of overtime. When she felt very tired, she went back to take a shower and immediately fell asleep in bed. Then, she packed her things and took the bus back to Lu Bancheng's apartment.
Because Lu Bancheng had brought another woman home the night before, Xu Wennuan looked up and found Lu Bancheng's apartment first. When she saw that the lights were all dark and that no one was home, she went upstairs.
She turned on the light in the living room and entered the guest bedroom. She threw her bag on the bed, found a towel and pajamas, and went to the bathroom.
After a hot shower, she felt much better. Xu Wennuan went to the dining room and poured herself a glass of water. Just as she was about to take it back to the guest bedroom to sleep, she heard the door open.
Xu Wennuan's back tensed up, and she turned around just in time to see the door open and Lu Bancheng walk in.
He hadn't been home for such a long time. Why was he coming back so frequently these past two days?
Xu Wennuan tightened her grip on the glass of water and was stunned for a few seconds before she lowered her eyes to hide her gaze from him.
The moment he entered the room, he noticed Xu Wennuan and clearly captured the strange expression that flashed across her face when she saw him enter.
Did she not welcome him back? That's right, she'd rather I never appear in front of her again … Lu Bancheng mocked in his heart as he casually tossed the car keys aside, bent over, and changed his shoes.
When he got up, Xu Wennuan, who had not spoken to him at all, had already walked into the guest bedroom and was unlocking the door.
Did she want to lock the door?
The mockery in Lu Bancheng's heart deepened. He leaned against the shoe cabinet at the entrance and stared at Xu Wennuan, who was holding a glass of water in one hand and fiddling with the lock with the other. Confused, he suddenly blurted out, "Didn't she leave last night? Why are you back now? "
