Chapter 818: Was She Playing Hard to Get (2)
Well, he made the correct guess. She refused to let Gu Yu go, and that annoyed Gu Yu to the extent he was too frustrated to tell.
Xu Shuai began to think of kind words he could put in for Xu Weilai.
“She’s not interested in me.”
“Yu, Xu Weilai isn’t that bad actually… she… wait, what did you say?” Xu Shuai blinked, unable to believe his ears.
“She even transferred the shares back to Grandpa. She didn’t ask for a single cent.”
Xu Shuai looked at Gu Yu’s handsome face in a daze. His eyes were blank.
“I wanted to see her off when she left the hospital. She rejected me, and did not even look at me.”
Xu Shuai couldn’t believe what he had just heard.
These words sounded unreal. Was Gu Yu sure that he wasn’t telling the opposite?
Xu Shuai and Gu Yu stared at each other for a minute and finally sure that what Gu Yu telling him the truth. He put his hand on his forehead and said, “Let me think…”
After Xu Weilai found out that Gu Yu lost part of his memory, not only did she not hound Gu Yu as they had expected, she even decisively let him go and wouldn’t even cast a glance at him.
Was that the same Xu Weilai he knew?
He thought that… Actually everyone thought that Xu Weilai persistently helped the Gu family because she still loved Gu Yu dearly. Now that the situation stabilized with Grandpa Gu woken up and Gu Yu returned from the dead, everything seemed to be back on the right track. But she withdrew herself from the picture and drew the line between Gu Yu and herself?
Was she playing hard to get?
The thought came into Xu Shuai’s mind, but was immediately rejected by his brain as the Xu Weilai he knew was not a pretentious woman that would play such a boring trick to get a man.
Xu Shuai was shaken by his own thought playing in his mind.
Since when did his perception towards Xu Weilai tremendously changed? Not only her image in his heart changed, he even looked highly towards her.
Xu Shuai coughed once to clear his throat before he opened his mouth, but immediately closed again, contemplating his next words. This went on for a while before he blurted, “This is good, isn’t it? Since you aren’t interested in her anyway, let’s just lead each other’s own life well. ”
Led each other’s own life well.
Logically, he couldn’t wish for anything better than this.
Gu Yu had always disliked the fiancée that his grandfather betrothed him to. He wasn’t moved even the slightest, even though Xu Shuai and a.s.sistant Lin told him they were married during the missing years of his memory.
Certainly, they mentioned not only of Xu Weilai, but of Zuo Si too, the woman he was engaged to.
But he felt nothing towards them, be it Xu Weilai or Zuo Si. In his memory, the only person who could affect his feeling and thoughts was Grandpa Gu.
Therefore, everyone else was the same for him. He requested a.s.sistant Lin to buy off the shares in the hand of both Zuo Si and Xu Weilai.
Although Zuo Si was unwilling, she still did under the circ.u.mstances she was in. Xu Weilai was also unwilling, but her approach was different. She wanted nothing in return.
His mockery towards Xu Weilai turned into a joke at that very moment.
He felt uncomfortable and sorry for the words he said to Xu Weilai. Thus, he rushed out without another word when his grandfather asked him to see her off.
However, he felt like his heart was being torn apart when he faced rejection and being ignored by Xu Weilai. The pain was so intense that he couldn’t breathe.
