Chapter 260: Love is Willing to Break the Rules (10)

“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.
