Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Huo Sicheng saw Gu Qingcheng frown, and his eyes were filled with apology.
“I said that I woke you up and asked you questions about Qi Shaoze. It’s all my fault for making you unhappy.”
Gu Qingcheng was shocked and surprised.
She was very close to Huo Sicheng, so she could clearly see the sincerity and apology in his eyes.
He was apologizing to her. What kind of apology was that?
BoxNovel.comWas Huo Sicheng apologizing to her out of guilt?
Or was Huo Xuan forcing Huo Sicheng to apologize to her?
The relationship between the two did not seem to be much different.
She did not need his apology.
“You didn’t do anything wrong. You don’t have to apologize to me.” She didn’t avoid Huo Sicheng’s gaze. “I didn’t do anything wrong. I won’t apologize to you.
Let go of me now.”
Huo Sicheng felt even more uneasy when he heard Gu Qingcheng’s words.
The uneasiness of losing her at any moment made him tighten his arms around her.
“I can’t let go of you.’
Gu Qingcheng frowned. “Why?”
Huo Sicheng looked into Gu Qingcheng’s eyes and said, “I want to be with you.”
Gu Qingcheng held her breath and stared blankly at Huo Sicheng’s eyes, which were filled with love and tenderness.
She was very sad.
How could he be so thick-skinned to say that to her?
If he hadn’t gone overseas to meet Miss Li, his words would have moved her to kiss him.
Now, not only did she not feel anything when she heard it, but her heart was also filled with sadness.
How did he manage to be two-timing and still speak sweet nothings to her without changing his expression?
She really wanted to ask him, but she felt that exposing his falsehood would only embarrass him.
“I don’t want to be with you anymore.” She told Huo Sicheng, paused for a moment, and then said, “At least I don’t want to see you today.”
Gu Qingcheng’s words were like a knife stabbing into Huo Sicheng’s heart. He was in so much pain that he couldn’t breathe, and a hurt look flashed across his eyes.
For Qi Shaoze’s sake, she had to reject him.
“Alright.”
Despite his reluctance, he still let go of her hand as she wished.
Gu Qingcheng immediately got up from Huo Sicheng’s arms and turned to leave. But after taking a step, she said, “I’ll be staying in Yunduan for the next few days. You can bring Huo Xuan back to the villa. If Xuan ‘er doesn’t want to go back to the villa, then leave him here with me.”
Huo Sicheng watched Gu Qingcheng leave with determination.
He looked at her until her figure disappeared from his sight. He raised his hand to his forehead and felt a sense of powerlessness and fear.
After Gu Qingcheng returned to Yunduan, she contacted her master, Li Jing, to ask her about the Peach Lotus Cup. The best student in Imperial Arts, Ziyu, had met with an accident, but it wasn’t a suicide. It was something else.
She glanced at the trending searches about her and Qi Shaoze. Qi Shaoze had promised her that he wouldn’t go on the trending searches if they went to a restaurant, but he didn’t expect that they would be photographed at the Peach Lotus Cup.
She could not help but feel angry. Qi Shaoze had done this more than once.
The next moment, she took out her phone and dialed Qi Shaoze’s number.
Qi Shaoze picked up the call instantly. Before Gu Qingcheng could scold him, Qi Shaoze spoke first in ecstasy, “Qingcheng, this is the first time you’ve called me.”
Gu Qingcheng frowned. “I’m correcting you. This is the first time I’ve called you since we’ve talked things out.”
“Uh… Yes, you’re right.” Qi Shaoze agreed. “Is there something you need from me? If you have anything to say, I’ll do everything.”
“What’s going on with the trending searches?” Gu Qingcheng didn’t hide her anger at Qi Shaoze at all. She questioned him, “Can you not do such a dirty thing! You said you wouldn’t be on the trending searches, but you’re doing this again. ”
“I’m innocent.” Qi Shaoze explained in a panic. “I really didn’t ask anyone to take photos. It was just accidentally taken by the media during the Peach Lotus
Cup.”
Seeing that Gu Qingcheng didn’t say anything, he added nervously, “Qingcheng, I swear I didn’t take any photos. You can go and investigate. I swear, I really didn’t send anyone to take photos. This time, it must have been accidentally taken by someone. Believe me, believe me once.”
Hearing Qi Shaoze’s words, Gu Qingcheng thought of the commotion she had caused the other day at the Peach Lotus Cup.
In order to capture her news and cause a sensation, the media would do anything they could. Moreover, since Qi Shaoze dared to ask her to investigate, it must have been a secret photo. Otherwise, Qi Shaoze could not afford to bet on the trending searches this time.
Once she found out that Qi Shaoze had intentionally made it onto the trending searches, she would have a legitimate reason to break up with him.
It seemed like she had been secretly photographed.
Fortunately, the video of her and Qi Shaoze together had made it onto the trending searches. It could be considered as revenge for Huo Sicheng’s visit to Miss Li overseas.
She wasn’t someone to be trifled with. Huo Sicheng made things difficult for her, so she wouldn’t let him have it easy either.
“Alright, I believe you this time.” Her anger at Qi Shaoze had subsided a little, and she was too lazy to talk to him. “It’s fine. I’ll hang up first.”
“Wait a minute.” Qi Shaoze quickly called out to Gu Qingcheng. “Are you free tonight? Shall we have a meal together?”
“I don’t have time.” Gu Qingcheng hung up the phone and left the bedroom for the living room.
Huo Sicheng and Huo Xuan were together in the living room. She saw Huo Sicheng getting angry again.
She had told him very clearly that she wanted him to leave this place, but he was still here.
Just then, Huo Sicheng turned his wheelchair and left the living room.
Gu Qingcheng saw all of this, and she suddenly felt a lump in her throat. It was so painful.
She asked Huo Sicheng to leave, and now that he was gone, she didn’t know why she felt so bad.
Wasn’t this what she wanted to see?
“Mommy…” Huo Xuan looked pitifully at his mother who was walking towards him. He reached out and hugged her. “Dad asked me if I should go back to the villa or stay here. I chose to stay and accompany Mom. Can Mommy stop arguing with Daddy?”
Gu Qingcheng leaned over and held Huo Xuan in her arms. The corners of her mouth twitched, but she couldn’t say anything for a long time.
She had never thought of quarreling with Huo Sicheng. He was the one who had let her down first.
“Mom, Dad just left not long ago. He must not have left Yunduan yet.” Huo Xuan begged Gu Qingcheng pitifully. “Can we go and stop him?”
Gu Qingcheng didn’t answer Huo Xuan’s question. Instead, she changed the subject and asked, “Baby, Mommy has to go to Royal Dance. I can’t leave you alone at home, so you have to come with me.”
Huo Xuan was very smart. He knew that his mother did not want to talk about his father, so he could only say again, “I’ll accompany you to Royal Dance. But could you ask Daddy to stay? This time, for my sake, can you keep Daddy?”
“No.” Gu Qingcheng answered straightforwardly. She walked toward the door with Huo Xuan in her arms. “I’m willing to do anything for you, but not this.”
“Why?” Huo Xuan asked his mother in confusion.. “What did Dad do to make
Mom so angry?”
