Chapter 600 - This was Endurance (2/2)

If it wasn't for him, both of them could have already ceased to exist in this world.

Her body suddenly felt lighter, and the sound of the man's heavy sigh resonated by her ears. She opened her slightly hazy eyes and lowered her head only to realize that merely two of her buttons were undone. Her clothes were still perfectly intact as well. She heaved a sigh of relief and realized at that moment that her back had already been soaked with perspiration.

She sat up, placed her fingers on top of her collar, and buttoned her shirt in a somewhat fl.u.s.tered state. She didn't understand why. Why did he suddenly stop?

”What… what's wrong…?” Her trembling voice asked. The complex look in Gao Yi's eyes was something that she could never understand.

”It's alright, it's nothing. I just drank a little too much today.” Gao Yi soothingly straightened out Xia Ruoxin's hair with an apologetic smile on his face, almost as if nothing had happened. However, the smile on his lips was a lot smaller and a lot softer than before.

”I'll get going. Go keep Rainy company.” He stood up and left the room with big strides, never mentioning the word 'marriage' ever again. Perhaps right now, they were avoiding it; and this sort of evasion had become the biggest problem in their relationship.

Gao Yi stood at the entrance. He reached out his hands and scratched his own hair. The dim and unclear lighting shone on his face, making his face seem pale.

He let out another sigh, and the moment he turned around, he was greeted with Bai Zhenfeng's frozen expression.

”Follow me.” Bai Zhenfeng's face didn't have much expression, and his voice didn't have much emotion as well. Gao Yi simply pressed his lips tightly together and followed behind Bai Zhenfeng.

Bai Zhenfeng's footsteps were slightly heavy, and with every step, the crease on his forehead deepened. He could clearly hear Gao Yi's footsteps, every step filled with discipline and stability. This was the difference between the young and old.

He really was old.

He pushed open a door, and inside was a woman's room. All the decor was resplendent, just like that of a princess' room. Everything inside was of the best quality and most expensive price. This was also the only femininely decorated room in the Bai Family, and this room naturally belonged to Bai Luoyin.

Gao Yi stood at the door, completely uninterested with everything before his eyes. His thin lips curled up slightly. If Bai Zhenfeng was going to mention that matter again, then there was no need for him to repeat himself. He was not going to marry Bai Luoyin. Three years ago, he didn't marry her; three years later, it was still going to be the same. Even if there wasn't Xia Ruoxin in his life, it would still be the same.

”Come in.” Bai Zhenfeng's voice was filled with command. Gao Yi's footsteps paused for a moment before following him into the room. He simply stood in the femininely decorated room. The familiar scent of perfume started to make him feel uncomfortable.

At that moment, Bai Luoyin lay on the magnificent and large bed, her expression pale. Even her tender and rosy lips had little color. She cared the most about her appearance. Since young, she would always dress herself up beautifully; and she was very thorough. However, right now, she had seemingly changed. It was not that she was slovenly or unkempt. It was just that she was very different from before.

”Luoyin has become like this. Are you happy now? Are you only going to be satisfied after forcing her to death? Tell me, what's so good about that woman? How is Luoyin not as good as her? Tell me. Tell me! Even though she had wronged you in the past—after all, you guys still grew up together. You're a doctor; you treat everybody so kindly. But why are you so cold to Luoyin instead? What heinous crime has she committed?”
