Qin Zhi'ai walked into the bedroom with a frown . She looked out of the window and was surprised to see Gu Yusheng there .
Actually, she knew she hadn't seen it wrong, even with just a glance . It was him . He had come home this afternoon and left .
He's home now . Why didn't he come in? What is he standing there for? Qin Zhi'ai thought to herself .
No lights were turned on in the bedroom, so it was dark where Qin Zhi'ai was . She didn't have to worry about Gu Yusheng seeing her . Therefore, she was able to watch him without worrying about being caught .
Gu Yusheng looked like he couldn't feel the rain . He quietly stood there, smoking under the streetlamp .
He didn't turn off the car, keeping the car parked in front of him with its hazard lights on .
He seemed to be bothered by something and kept turning around to check the house's door . Qin Zhi'ai thought he would come in a couple of times, but he didn't move at the end for whatever reason .
The rain became heavier . His hair was completely soaked by it . His clothes were wet, too . The white shirt became translucent and stuck to his body, making him look sexy and gorgeous .
He was a distance away from her, so as the rain grew heavier, Qin Zhi'ai could barely see his figure . However, without knowing why, Qin Zhi'ai could tell he was sad from the way he stood in the rain with a cigarette .
It was unclear how much time had passed before the rain stopped .
The water beads dripped on the windows . Qin Zhi'ai saw the water dripping from his hair . The cigarette between his fingers was put out by the rain .
He didn't light another cigarette . He stood there with wet clothes on for a while before he tossed the cigarette in the trash bin next to him . After, he pulled the car door open and took a seat in the car .
As the headlights turned on, he drove away and disappeared from Qin Zhi'ai's sight .
Qin Zhi'ai watched the streetlamp where Gu Yusheng had stood at for a long time with her scripts in her arms before she climbed back into bed .
She hadn't been sleepy before and only became more awake .
…
She had gone to sleep late the night before, so she didn't wake up until noon the next day .
After brushing her teeth and taking a shower, she walked out of the bedroom . As she was walking to the staircase, not yet downstairs, she heard the conversation from downstairs floating up .
"Mr . Gu, what is this call about? How can I help you?" the housekeeper said .
The housekeeper must have been doing something at the same time, since she had the speaker on . After she asked, there was static noise before she heard Gu Yusheng's voice . He sounded very casual . "Is everything all right at home?"
"Yes, Miss is still sleeping," the housekeeper said .
"She's not up yet? It's almost noon . You should wake her up soon and ask her to have some food even if she wants to go back to bed after," Gu Yusheng said .
"Yes, sir," the housekeeper said .
There was no response from Gu Yusheng on the line for about a minute . The housekeeper asked, "Mr . Gu?"
"Yes," Gu Yusheng responded and then took another pause for a while before he continued, "Did you give her the box?"
"Yes, I gave it to her last night," the housekeeper said .
"What was her reaction after seeing it?" Gu Yusheng asked .
"Miss didn't open it . She took it upstairs," the housekeeper said .
"Okay . " Gu Yusheng sounded a little disappointed . He sounded like he had been about to say something, but didn't in the end, then he sneezed, hard . Qin Zhi'ai heard him sniffing, but she couldn't hear it clearly . After a while, she heard him saying, "I'm going to hang up if there's nothing important . "
