Lin Gantang took a few steps back and looked at the mess on the ground.
She looked up, but there was no one.
Qian Ruoxi walked over from the other side. When she saw the books scattered all over the floor, she quickly stepped forward and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Boss. I let Xiao Yang and the others to stack them too high. Did you get hit?”
“I’m fine. Two books landed on my feet. It’s alright. It doesn’t hurt too much now.” Lin Gantang looked at the quiet surroundings. She let go of her suspicion. “Let’s pick them up together. Don’t pile them up too high this time.”
Shi Muzhen, who had been hiding, heard this and left soundlessly with a gloomy expression.
She exited the bookstore and walked along the sidewalk.
The sky was hazy, just like her heart at this moment.
She called the number that Feng Yangyang had given her.
“Are you finally calling me?” Feng Yangyang chuckled over the phone. “Let me guess, did Brother Gu do something to make you sad again, or did Lin Gantang make you unhappy?”
“Cut the crap. You should know why I’m looking for you.” Shi Muzhen’s face was as dark as thunder as she went straight to the point.
!!..
“Don’t be too impatient. You have to know that I’m your most reliable ally. You might not believe me now, but I’m telling you, I’ve already decided to leave C City and stop being delusional. You don’t have to doubt my motives.”
She continued, “I’m helping you because I can’t stand some people. I won’t interfere in your relationship with Brother Gu. You don’t have to constantly be wary of me.
“When I finish speaking, it’s still up to you to decide what you want in the end. Remember to think carefully. Otherwise, it’ll be meaningless to waste your time.”
The two of them talked for a while before Shi Muzhen cut off the call expressionlessly.
Feng Yangyang put it nicely, but she didn’t believe it completely. What she needed the most now was a reasonable identity to stand by Gu Zhichuan’s side. Otherwise, she would not even have the chance to get in touch with him. How could she make him fall in love with her?
Shi Muzhen reminded herself not to be reckless like the last time and miss a good opportunity. She had to succeed the next time!
Feng Yangyang, who had hung up the phone, was wearing the white dress that she had given up. Her figure was slender, and her makeup was pure and fragile-looking. She stood at the entrance of Gu Zhichuan’s company.
Gu Zhichuan saw her. Perhaps he was too used to paying special attention to Feng Yangyang, so he would take a few more glances at her.
He was the one who had suggested breaking up, and Feng Yangyang had left without any hesitation, so when Feng Yangyang called out to Gu Zhichuan, Gu Zhichuan stopped.
“What is it?” he asked.
“It’s nothing.” Feng Yangyang’s lips were pale from her biting them. She looked weak. “I’m leaving. I wanted to see you one last time.”
“Where are you going?” Gu Zhichuan noticed the luggage beside her.
“I… There’s no place for me here.” Feng Yangyang said helplessly, “The expenses in C City are too high. I’ll just go wherever I go. I’ll find a suitable place to live and then settle down.”
“Didn’t I give you the house in Grampian Garden?” Gu Zhichuan frowned.
Feng Yangyang’s eyes were misty as she shook her head.
“You don’t like it there?” Gu Zhichuan asked.
“No, I like it. I like it very much.” Feng Yangyang answered quickly as if she was afraid that Gu Zhichuan would misunderstand. It made her feel even more aggrieved. She choked. “But… Auntie knew that I took your house and wanted it back. Brother Gu, I’ll return the house to you. I don’t want others to look at me like I’m a beggar.”
Gu Zhichuan did not expect that his mother would be involved. He frowned hard..
