As she stirred the half-eaten mango tapioca, she realized why Gu Yusheng had asked her to have dessert . She had not known that her body double could not eat mangoes .
Liang Doukou shifted her eyes . “Yusheng, you might have misunderstood me . I did say I didn't like mangoes, but that didn't mean I can't have any . ”
She continued defending herself to a silent Gu Yusheng, who took his cell phone out of his pocket and pressed some buttons on the screen .
Liang Doukou's phone rang twice on the table .
Without looking, Liang Doukou knew who had just sent her the text messages . She glanced at Gu Yusheng and hesitated before she picked up her phone to look at the screen .
It was a message from Gu Yusheng .
Liang Doukou paused her fingers on the screen for a few seconds before opening the messages .
Gu Yusheng had sent her two pictures . She zoomed in on them . One picture was of Zhou Jing and her at the entrance to Zhou Jing's complex . The other picture was her body double holding trash bags at Gu Yusheng's house .
The two pictures were shot within three minutes of each other . At first smiling at seeing herself in the photos, she quickly frowned .
Two pictures of me in two different places far from each other at the same time . How could Gu Yusheng have gotten these pictures? Has he suspected for a long time ago? Has he investigated me and discovered my secrets?
Liang Doukou began to panic as she tried to explain the pictures, but she was failing . She continued trying while looking directly at Gu Yusheng, but her words became so incoherent that she stopped talking .
Gu Yusheng did not want to hear excuses . He got directly to the point . “If you don't want to answer my previous question, it's all right . I'll ask you another question . What is her name?”
Liang Doukou did not move her lips at all this time . She remained silent but visibly thinking about what to say next—how to handle Gu Yusheng .
Gu Yusheng did not urge her to answer his question . He waited for her . He waited for ten minutes .
Having finally calmed down while considering her answer, Liang Doukou finally said, “Yusheng, these pictures do not mean anything to me . It must be someone who tried to set me up . I…”
Gu Yusheng cut her off . “You don't want to answer my question . ”
“It's not that I don't want to answer—It's…”
Gu Yusheng interrupted her again, this time changing the subject . “Is everything in the house yours?”
Liang Doukou did not follow where Gu Yusheng was going with this question, but she eventually nodded and said, “Yes . ”
With no warning, Gu Yusheng kicked his chair out from under him and walked out of the room .
Liang Doukou's mind reeled . If he finds out I had a body double, he won't let it go easily . Is this why he changed the subject?
Liang Doukou suddenly heard a loud noise outside of the window . Now she knew why Gu Yusheng was acting so strangely .
