He left?
He actually just left like that?
Gu Qianqian stood there for a long time, processing this shocking fact.
She had never met someone so hard to get along with.
Even though she had accidentally seen his body that day, he should know she didn’t mean to.
But how could he just leave after saving her?
Lost in thought, it took Gu Qianqian a long time to digest this fact.
It wasn’t until the feeling of a thorn in her side pricked her nerves that she suddenly turned around, and then…
“Lu…Lu Yebai!”
Seeing him again, she didn’t know how to describe her feelings.
Happy, excited, and…
embarrassed!
Instinctively pulling her coat closer to her body, she clenched her chest as much as possible, not wanting him to see her most embarrassing side.
A whole year since his departure, her world revolved around waiting for him and nothing else was more important.
“You should call me Brother Ye.”
Lu Yebai’s voice was very nice to listen to, unlike Lu Zhanbei’s steady low rasp, it was clear with a youthful male’s voice.
However, his words left Gu Qianqian completely speechless…
Meeting in the wrong season, growing in different worlds, him going east, her going west, had they just passed by each other already?
Just a chance encounter.
Once the story ended, everyone returned to their original world.
This should have been the ending, and yet…
She still ran into him, and moreover, reunited under such an awkward identity.
She had a lot of questions for him, but his cold eyes silenced her.
She could only sadly gaze at him, her eyes filled with sorrow…
“I heard, you tried to seduce Master Fu Jingchen?
A girl like you, could your actions be a little more modest?”
“…What?”
She thought she misheard.
Gu Qianqian, with her eyes wide open in shock, gazed at the person asking her.
Seduce?
She hardly believed that these words actually came from Lu Yebai’s mouth.
“Since…”
Barely parting his lips, Lu Yebai’s gaze moved down, looking at her torn skirt that was barely concealed by her dark coat.
“Since you already have that kind of idea, why play coy?”
“Lu Yebai, I…”
Cutting her off, his tone was stern this time: “Call me Brother Ye!”
She didn’t want to call him that.
It was as if once she did, she’d lose him forever.
Therefore, despite the tears in the corner of her eyes, she stubbornly explained: “I did not seduce him.
He tried to take advantage of me.”
“You mean he was trying to take advantage of someone from our house on our turf?”
As soon as he finished, Lu Yebai looked at Gu Qianqian and laughed scornfully: “Is he brainless?
Isn’t he afraid of being caught by us?”
“But…”
Once again he interrupted her, Lu Yebai’s attitude was even more nasty than before: “Please find a better excuse next time.
Do you think it’s appropriate to fob me off with such a lame reason?”
“I’m not fobbing you off, that’s the truth!”
Her weak explanation only brought more of his frightening rage: “The truth is, you thought Master Fu’s family background was not bad, so you got an idea and wanted to seduce him, seize the chance to rise in status.
But when you were rejected, you were so angry and embarrassed that you claimed he tried to take advantage of you, right?”
No, that’s wrong, all wrong!
Though she’d screamed it a thousand times in her mind, Gu Qianqian could only tremble, unable to utter a single word.
Lu Yebai, Lu Yebai…
So in your heart, I’m such a despicable person!?
