Back Then, I Adored You

Gu Yusheng didn’t look at the bloody wound from her bite. Instead, he turned around to the housekeeper who was in a panicked state and said extremely calmly, ”Take Miss home.”

After hearing Gu Yusheng’s order, she immediately ran over. ”Miss, it’s late. Let’s go home.”

Qin Zhiai didn’t move or say anything.

The housekeeper didn’t know what to do with Qin Zhi’ai. She turned around to look at Gu Yusheng.

Gu Yusheng stared at Qin Zhi’ai from the side. This time, he said with a more serious voice, ”Go home.”

Qin Zhi’ai still didn’t look like she was going to move.

Lu Bancheng was afraid that Gu Yusheng and Qin Zhi’ai would continue to fight again. He rushed to Qin Zhi’ai and whispered to her, ”I’ll help you find it. You should go home now.” As he talked, he nudged Qin Zhi’ai towards the housekeeper and gave the housekeeper a look. The housekeeper immediately understood what he meant. She grabbed Qin Zhi’ai’s arm and walked out of the amusement park.

…

Not long after, the car Qin Zhi’ai had parked at the entrance of the amusement park started, and they drove away.

It became quieter in the amusement park.

Lu Bancheng stood next to Gu Yusheng for a while. He turned his head sideways to take a look at the bite wound. She must have bitten him extremely hard, for some areas were bleeding.

Lu Bancheng felt hurt just by looking at it. He raised his hand and rubbed it with his other arm. He tried to convince Gu Yusheng, ”How about I call Xiaowang and let him to take you to the doctor.”

Gu Yusheng looked straight at the fountain without talking. Just when Lu Bancheng thought Gu Yusheng wouldn’t respond to him, Gu Yusheng suddenly spoke in an incredibly low pitch. It didn’t sound like his voice. ”You can ask them to leave now.”

Lu Bancheng knew Gu Yusheng was referring to the staff. He said okay and left with Gu Yusheng’s order.

After sending the staff away and coming back to see Gu Yusheng, Gu Yusheng was gone. Lu Bancheng frowned. As he was about to call ”Bro Sheng” loudly, he saw a shadow in the light from the fountain. It looked like someone was bending down and searching for something in the water.

Lu Bancheng was familiar with that figure. It was Gu Yusheng.

Lu Bancheng was shocked at first, but he immediately understood what had happened after he recalled what had happened that night.

…

Lu Bancheng had offered to help find the necklace, but Gu Yusheng turned it down.

All the staff were sent away. It was only Gu Yusheng and Lu Bancheng in the whole amusement park.

Lu Bancheng watched him for a while, but he failed to fight his sleepiness and fell asleep on the bench.

…

Gu Yusheng didn’t sleep the whole night. He didn’t come out of the spring with mud all over him until the sky was growing bright.

Lu Bancheng didn’t have a sound sleep. When he heard Gu Yusheng make a noise, he opened his eyes and asked Gu Yusheng with a sleepy voice. ”Did you find it?”

Gu Yusheng didn’t respond to him. He simply took the car keys out of his pocket and started walking out of the park.

Lu Bancheng immediately followed after him. As he was about to ask again if he had found the necklace, he saw light reflect between his fingers, a thin and dirty chain in Gu Yusheng’s hand.

…

Lu Bancheng drove them. As they drove from the east side of the city to the west, Lu Bancheng took a look at the dirt on Gu Yusheng in the rear-view mirror. He thought a little bit and broke the silence. ”Should we go to All Seasons Hotel to take a shower first and change into some clean clothes?”
