"Yes . . . " Before the housekeeper finished her words, Gu Yusheng spoke again, "Oh, by the way, you should accompany her more . Don't leave her alone in her room . . . If she doesn't want to go outside, you can call a few of her friends to spend time with her at home . . . If there's anything wrong, remember to call me first . . . "
…
Probably because she had seen Gu Yusheng standing in the rain for such a long time the previous night and happened to hear the phone call between him and the housekeeper that day, the whole afternoon, Qin Zhi'ai appeared absent minded .
It happened to be a day off for the housekeeper . At around seven o'clock in the evening, the housekeep left after preparing dinner for her .
She didn't know whether her bad appetite at dinner was caused by Gu Yusheng or because of her being in such a big villa alone . After eating a little, she put down her chopsticks and cleared the table, then went upstairs .
She thought about watching TV for a while, but she couldn't concentrate on any shows . Therefore, she simply leaned on her headboard in a daze . The conversion between Gu Yusheng and the housekeeper she had heard flashed in her mind again .
He deliberately asked the housekeeper about my response after she gave me the present . Did he give me a special gift?
Unconsciously, Qin Zhi'ai laid her eyes on the drawer that she had put the box in . After a moment of hesitation, she went over and opened the drawer, then she took out the box, untied the red string on it, and opened the box slowly .
With only a look, she seemed to be fixed there, not moving anymore .
What was placed inside wasn't a gift he gave to Liang Doukou, but the necklace that Qin Jiayan had given to her that he had broken angrily . . .
The crack had already been repaired . Probably because there were traces of repair, it wasn't as beautiful . A small pearl had been added to the crack, which made it look more delicate and beautiful .
Doesn't Gu Yusheng still hate Liang Doukou? Why is he doing this?
With this doubt, Qin Zhi'ai immediately thought of the moment when Gu Yusheng had given her a debit card and flew to Paris from the UK to give her a gift . . . At that time, she had felt that it might have been due to Grandpa that he would do those things . But . . . He had stood in the rain for so long the previous night . Obviously, he was concerned about something, and the words he told the housekeeper in the morning obviously showed that he cared about her . . .
Did he change his attitude toward Liang Doukou? If he has changed, did he change while I was pretending to be Liang Doukou recently?
If the fact is as I guess, it means…Thinking about that, Qin Zhi'ai stopped her train of thought suddenly .
Eight years ago, I also guessed this, believing that he was interested in me, but what happened in the end? It was just my fantasy . I deluded myself . So this time . . . maybe it's also a fantasy?
So, stop dreaming . . . He just feels guilty about what he did that day . That's why he did these things…
Thinking this, Qin Zhi'ai took a deep breath and drove away all the thoughts in her mind . She took the necklace and walked towards the bed . When she had just sat on the edge of the bed, the doorbell downstairs rang…
It's nearly eleven o'clock in the evening . Who would come at such a late time?
Qing Zhi'ai put down the necklace and rushed downstairs . After opening the door, she ran to the gates of the yard .
Without turning on the light, it was completely dark in the yard . When she was nearly at the gate, by the dim light of the streetlamp outside the door, Qin Zhi'ai recognized the person who was ringing the doorbell .
