Back Then, I Adored You

If he was alone, even with those guys in black suits, even with double the amount of people, it would be a piece cake for him.

However, he needed to make sure that his woman was safe, in case they started to fight and she got hurt.

Money was never that important to him. What was important to him at this moment was to bring her home safely.

He would definitely remember what Lame Wang did to him. They had time, and he had countless chances to take revenge.

Gu Yusheng calculated the situation for a minute and made a quick decision not to fight with them. He sat calmly and peacefully on the chair. Not standing up or walking towards Qin Zhi’ai, he didn’t even take a look at her.

“Master Gu, Miss Liang is here. She is intact. Can you sign the papers now?” Lame Wang tapped the file on the coffee table and looked at Gu Yusheng with a smile.

Gu Yusheng responded to him with a smile, too. He tilted his head to look at the woman who had walked in the door.

She had a red jacket over the pajamas she had been wearing when she had left the house the night before. The tags were still on the jacket. She had changed from slippers into a pair of flats.

She looked good. It looked like she hadn’t been bullied or beaten by them. He guessed that Lame Wang only wanted to get the property. He hadn’t meant to make a big deal out of it, so he must have treated her well.

Gu Yusheng scanned Qin Zhi’ai from top to bottom and fixed his eyes on hers.

Qin Zhi’ai had been watching him. Once their eyes met, she looked like a scared kitten. She immediately looked down and showed the top of head with frizzy hair to him.

Didn’t she act tough last night? Now, she’s in trouble. She should have learned a lesson, Gu Yusheng thought to himself.

He found her reaction funny and couldn’t hold his smile. The corners of his mouth went up. He turned around to pick up the pen on the coffee table, flipped through the files without checking the content, and signed his name.

When Gu Yusheng picked up the pen, Qin Zhi’ai quietly looked up and took a good look at him.

She was nice, but it didn’t mean she didn’t have a temper. She had been extremely unhappy last night, which was why she had ran away from the house. She had been hot-headed and only cooled down from the cold late night wind after she had ran out of the house. She had realized she only had pajama and slippers on and immediately regretted leaving the house.

While she hadn’t been sure what she should do next, her mouth had been covered by two bodyguards. She had been carried into a car and brought to the Tingyin Tea House.

She had been kidnapped, but they had seemed nice to her. They had provided her with good food, warm clothes, and shelter.

Of course, she knew they hadn’t kidnapped her to treat her like a princess. They must have had their own reasons.

At first, she had thought they were Liang Doukou’s pervert fans and wanted her. She hadn’t known they had taken her to blackmail Gu Yusheng until that morning.

She had been next to him when Lame Wang had made a phone call to Gu Yusheng. She hadn’t been able to hear what Gu Yusheng had said on the other end of the line, but she had given up hope after hearing what Lame Wang had said.

That’s a big project. How could Gu Yusheng give it up for a woman he hates so much? Qin Zhi’ai thought to herself.

Gu Yusheng might have even wanted to thank Lame Wang for getting rid of her, a nuisance in his life.

She only wished that Gu Yusheng wouldn’t be too cruel to her. Even if he hadn’t wanted to give up that project for her, he had to call the police in case she was killed by them.
