Chapter 1909: Xiaoyu, Don’t Be Like This
Just as he was about to see Tang Xiaoyu, he rushed to Mr Li’s villa and happened to see Mr Li and his group arrive at the hospital in a van.
Although Gu Zhengrong had drunk a lot, he knew very well what was going on between Tang Xiaoyu and Mr Li. There must be some hidden meaning behind their plan.
Gu Zhengrong’s eyes turned cold as he looked at Tang Xiaoyu. In his heart, he wanted to walk forward and hug her tightly.
“Xiaoyu, can you not be like this? Let’s go back to how we were like in the beginning, okay?”
Gu Zhengrong walked forward and said to Tang Xiaoyu in a pleading tone. In his heart, it did not matter even if Tang Xiaoyu was with Mr Li, the big shot in the Chinese business circle. It did not matter even if she had a child that belonged to the two of them. As long as Gu Zhengrong confirmed his heart and his desire to get Tang Xiaoyu back, he would not care about these things that seemed important to outsiders.
“Gu Zhengrong, open your dog eyes and see where you are and who you are talking to.”
Tang Xiaoyu pa.s.sed Duo Duo back to the nanny standing beside her. She signaled for the nanny to bring Duo Duo to the room next door with the nurse. Only then did she curse in front of Gu Zhengrong.
“Do you think that I, Tang Xiaoyu, am that easy to bully? Are you pleading with me now because I stole your jewelry?”
Tang Xiaoyu knew that in Gu Zhengrong’s eyes, the jewelry might not be that important to him, but the person who wanted it through him was especially important.
“Xiaoyu, you know that’s not what I think. Don’t you know what kind of person I am? In my heart, you…”
“What about me? I’m in your heart. I already knew about it. You don’t have to explain it to me now, do you?”
Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes turned even colder. Her gaze was like a sword, and her words were like knives that pierced Gu Zhengrong’s body. It made him feel so much pain that he wanted to die. Since when did Tang Xiaoyu become such a woman? She had become someone he did not want to face but had to face.
Worst of all, Gu Zhengrong could not let go of Tang Xiaoyu.
Gu Zhengrong’s eyes were filled with sorrow as he looked into her eyes gently. “Xiaoyu, let’s go back to the past, okay? Didn’t you say that I don’t have time to accompany you? I can spend all my time with you now. I won’t be busy with work and won’t be the leader of any business. I’ll stay here with you. I’ll do whatever you want to do. I’ll accompany you wherever you want to go, okay?”
Gu Zhengrong lowered his status and looked at her with even more infatuation.
“Gu Zhengrong, I think you’re mistaken.”
Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes reddened as she looked at Gu Zhengrong coldly.
“I’m not mistaken. I want to go with you right now. I’ll follow you wherever you go. I’ll agree to whatever you want to eat and whatever you want. I’ll accompany you, alright?”
Gu Zhengrong walked forward and wanted to hug Tang Xiaoyu’s arm tightly, but Tang Xiaoyu pushed him away and he accidentally fell to the ground.
“Gu Zhengrong, have you gotten used to being cold and aloof to me? The Tang Xiaoyu you know is already dead, and I’m no longer the woman you know. Please watch your actions and words carefully. You know who’s behind you. It’s fine if you offend me, but if you offend Mr Li, it’s hard to say.”
Tang Xiaoyu’s voice carried a hint of a smile as she looked at him with a complicated gaze.
As she watched the man she once loved fall before her, she did not feel any pain in her heart. She only felt that this man seemed to have become more and more distant from her memories.
It was so far away that Tang Xiaoyu could not believe that the Gu Zhengrong, who was so aggrieved and did not care about anything, would have such a time. She could not believe her eyes and ears.
“Xiaoyu, I know I did something wrong in the past. Can you stop treating me like this? Can you come back?”
Gu Zhengrong sat on the floor. He did not care about his face or his pretense in front of Tang Xiaoyu. At this moment, all he wanted was for her to turn around.
“Hmph.”
Tang Xiaoyu snorted as hatred flashed across her eyes.
If this man could let go of all his worries before her, perhaps Tang Xiaoyu would not have pretended to be such an ignorant person.
“Xiaoyu, can you come back?”
Gu Zhengrong slowly supported himself up from the table beside him. His eyes were still on Tang Xiaoyu as he tried to find traces of the former Tang Xiaoyu.
However, Gu Zhengrong was disappointed. He still could not find the love in Tang Xiaoyu’s eyes for him, nor did he find the warmth he once had.
All of a sudden, he realized that he did not know Tang Xiaoyu, nor did he know her, who was standing right in front of him and speaking like an enemy.
“Go back? Go back where? You want me to return to your side and continue being your slave, yet you’re still not willing to acknowledge me? Gu Zhengrong, how amazing are you to think that I, Tang Xiaoyu, will always stick to you?”
Tang Xiaoyu clenched her fists tightly. She could not tell if Gu Zhengrong’s eyes were hiding his past friends.h.i.+p or his current feelings for Tang Xiaoyu.
If there were both, then it would be too late. It was not in Tang Xiaoyu or Gu Zhengrong’s preparation.
“Xiaoyu, you know that’s not what I meant. Can you listen to my explanation patiently?”
Tang Xiaoyu’s voice was as cold as cold water. Looking at his dispirited face, Tang Xiaoyu actually felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart.
“Xiaoyu, I really know that I’m in the wrong now. I won’t treat you like this anymore, but can you not treat me like this? As long as you come back, I can give up anything and listen to you.”
Gu Zhengrong put down all his pride and dignity, only when he was drunk.
