Chapter 20
Gu Juexi’s eyes rested on Ye Yuwei’s straight back and her last gaze .
A strange feeling engulfed him . A feeling that he was not sure about but was capable of tearing his heart apart .
“Brother Juexi, my hand hurts . ” Behind Juexi, Yu Sha’er cried and her eyes were filled with hatred toward Ye Yuwei .
Ye Yuwei walked out of the hotel . At this time, the rain poured from the sky . Raising her head, Ye Yuwei looked up at the barely visible sky . The corners of her mouth lifted .
“Why are you doing this?” A sweet voice asked .
Ye Yuwei turned to look at Lu Qichuan who was leaning against the pillar of the hotel . She knew that he had now realized her real identity . It was nothing to be shameful of as this man had beheld the whole awkward predicament .
“You can choose not to go in,” Lu Qichuan said again .
“Even if you have made a bet with Gu Juexi, you already know that you will lose before you go in . So, why are you still going in?”
“For the sake of losing entirely . ” Ye Yuwei merely smiled as she turned around and walked in the rain .
Slightly stunned, Lu Qichuan straightened up as he stared at the woman who walked steadily forward .
“What are you doing here?” Gu Juexi walked out of the hotel together with Yu Sha’er and saw Lu Qichuan who was standing at the door .
“I met Mrs . Gu just now and I asked her a question . Her response was interesting,” Lu Qichuan said as he glanced at Yu Sha’er who was still crying .
“Send Shasha to the hospital . She seems badly injured . I will send Mrs . Gu home on your behalf . ” Lu Qichuan picked up the umbrella at the door and walked in the rain .
Looking at Lu Qichuan―who was not far away―catching up with the woman in the rain, Gu Juexi was blazing in rage .
Ye Yuwei! He had truly underestimated her .
At this moment, PA Wen reached the hotel entrance . As soon as Gu Juexi opened the door, both of them got into the car . Just as the car was leaving the entrance, Ye Yuwei subconsciously turned to look but quickly turned away .
“I am sorry for lying to today, Mr . Lu . I have to go now . ” Ye Yuwei nodded slightly and turned around .
“It is raining heavily . Let me give you a lift . ” Lu Qichuan was still holding his umbrella over her .
Ye Yuwei paused for a moment and turned to look at Lu Qichuan . “No need . Also, please don’t call me Mrs . Gu . Don’t get too close to me or you will get into trouble . ” Ye Yuwei quickly walked away as soon as she finished talking .
Watching Ye Yuwei leaving, Qichuan stood rooted to the ground with an umbrella in his hand, not moving for a long while .
A rainstorm hit the city . Feeling lost, Ye Yuwei walked under the storm―all alone .
‘Ye Yuwei, you truly have no sense of shame! You are disgusting! Is it truly worth doing all these for Gu Juexi? If you are still falling for him, you are not a friend of mine . ’
She had lost her only friend because of Gu Juexi but what did she get in the end?
‘You already know that you will lose before you got yourself involved . So, why are you still doing it?’
‘For the sake of losing entirely . ’
Rainstorms in summer were apparently warm but she could feel the bitter coldness piercing her very bones . Lifting her head, Ye Yuwei had completely lost everything . Her friendship, the unrequited love and herself .
The clock was ticking . The young master was sitting in the living room resembling an Asura . The atmosphere was growing increasingly tense and no one in the Gu Mansion dared to breathe loudly . Everyone was longing for the young mistress’ return .
