She was already sleepless, and after her mother’s words, Gu Qianqian felt even heavier.
Honestly, she wanted to leave!
She wanted to leave this place that not only didn’t welcome her but also humiliated her.
Yet in another way, she couldn’t resign herself to it.
She was unwilling because she never got to say a proper goodbye face to face with Lu Yebai.
Yes, he was her Brother Yebai.
She knew she shouldn’t harbor any feelings towards him after learning the truth.
However, it was because of this, she had new insights into the events of that year.
That year, she didn’t know who he was.
But…
what about him?
As her mind continued to muddle, she unknowingly dozed off again…
The next morning, a knock on the door woke Gu Qianqian.
When she opened her eyes, her mom was no longer beside her.
Hearing the noise outside, she dragged her slippers to open the door.
Upon seeing Lu Yebai’s suntanned, handsome face, Gu Qianqian immediately woke up.
Although she was reluctant to admit, being able to see Lu Yebai as soon as she opened her eyes was the dream she longed for every day for the past year.
Finally, it came true!
She felt overjoyed, excited, and happy…
However, her face turned pale when she turned to see the person beside him.
“Apologize!”
Gu Qianqian: “…”
Seeing the person she had been thinking about all the time first thing in the morning felt nice.
But on the other hand, seeing such a disgusting character following him around also first thing in the morning definitely didn’t lift her spirits.
This situation was already bad enough, but she didn’t expect Lu Yebai’s first words to be about an apology.
Based on what?
She just wanted to ask based on what?
Yet, facing his heartlessness, she didn’t say anything but kept staring at his face, her eyes silently asking him why.
“Didn’t we agree to this last night?”
Her heart stung as she replied with pain: “Based on what?”
She wasn’t at fault, it was that despicable fat guy.
So why did she have to apologize?
“You tell me.”
Gu Qianqian’s gaze turned cold.
Gritting her teeth, she said, “I won’t apologize.”
“Then get lost.
Now!”
“…”
She kept her mouth shut, but Gu Qianqian was a feisty person, too.
She had ruminated about yesterday’s incident all night and had just persuaded herself that Lu Yebai must have had his reasons…
but now—
She felt her heart was aching again!
Lu Yebai, why must you treat me this way?
Her small fists tightened, and Gu Qianqian’s eyes reddened, but she didn’t shed a tear.
Of course, she had no intention of apologizing either.
Seeing her defiant gaze, Lu Yebai involuntarily furrowed his brows.
Just as he was about to lecture her, Fu Jingchen next to him gently pulled him back, feigning kindness and saying, “Forget it, Lu Yebai, it’s not a big deal, and Qianqian might just be naive.
We’re friends after all, let’s just let it slide.”
Watching this jerk distort the truth in front of her, Gu Qianqian couldn’t hold back anymore and cursed, “Shut up, you scumbag…”
“Gu Qianqian!
You shut up,”
Interrupting her harshly, Lu Yebai’s gaze was unusually fierce, “Do you have no manners at all?”
