Back Then, I Adored You

When Lu Bancheng received a call from Gu Yusheng, he had just finished some business with others at a restaurant and was preparing to leave.

He was in the vicinity of the shopping mall that Gu Yusheng mentioned. After paying his bill, it took him less than ten minutes to arrive at the shopping mall.

After parking the car, Lu Bancheng took the elevator to the first floor. He took out his cell phone and when he was just preparing to call Gu Yusheng to ask him for his specific location, he suddenly saw Gu Yusheng sitting on a sofa through the bright glass in front of him.

Lu Bancheng slowed his actions of unlocking his cell phone screen and looked at the logo of the store Gu Yusheng was in. He blinked three times and eventually made sure that what he was seeing was real. It was really a shop that sold diamond rings.

He knew the brand. It was a luxury diamond jewelry brand… Did Gu Yusheng hurriedly call me to come over just so I could help him select a diamond ring?

Lu Bancheng had seen something incredible. Standing in the distance for a while, he walked to the door of the shop Gu Yusheng was in.

The shop was very quiet, with only a few young couples selecting diamond rings in front of the counter.

When the employee standing formally at the door saw Lu Bancheng come in, she immediately greeted him. With a smile on her face, she asked politely, “Sir, what can I do for you?”

“I’m looking for someone, thank you,” Lu Bancheng replied to the employee politely. Then he pointed at Gu Yusheng, who was sitting at the innermost VIP seat. The employee immediately understood, leading him with a smile to walk over.

When he came nearer, Lu Bancheng saw the table Gu Yusheng was sitting at was covered with diamond ring albums. There was white paper in front of him. As he flipped through the albums, he drew on it with a pencil.

He seemed to be dealing with a serious task. He was so focused that he didn’t realize Lu Bancheng was there, even after he sat opposite him and the employee whispered to ask him if he wanted coffee or tea.

“Coffee, thank you.” After answering the employee’s words, Lu Bancheng turned around and looked at Gu Yusheng. After a moment, seeing that he still had no intention to speak to him, he called, “Brother Sheng.”

There was no slight change in Gu Yusheng’s look. He moved the pencil in his hand very fast, and occasionally, he turned his head and glanced at the other album that was spread out.

Lu Bancheng realized that Gu Yusheng had no intention to pay attention to him, so he entertained himself. He looked at the album on the table for a while, then touched another for a bit. After the coffee was brought to him, he put the boring album down. Leaning against the sofa, he slowly drank his beverage.

When Lu Bancheng had nearly drank all the coffee in his cup, Gu Yusheng finally put down the pencil in his hand. He massaged his neck, which was painful because he had lowered his head to write and draw for a long time. After he picked up his black tea and drank half the cup, he raised his head and looked at Lu Bancheng sitting opposite him. “Do you have something particularly important going on right now?”

“No…” Lu Bancheng drank the last sip of coffee left in the cup and called for the employee to make him another cup. Then he looked at Gu Yusheng and asked, “What’s up?”

“Help me handle something. Go to the United Kingdom to find Ken and order a wedding ring according to this drawing.” After Gu Yusheng said those words, he pushed the paper he had just been drawing on for a long time toward Lu Bancheng.

It turned out that he had been there for so long with a pencil in his hand and ignoring everyone around him in order to draw a design for a diamond wedding ring.
