C97 (1/2)
Gu Lin Xi didn't know how to reject such a reasonable request, so after hesitating for a moment, he entered the car with a slight apprehension in his heart. Along the way, Gu Lingxi didn't take the initiative to say a single word to Zhu Yitong. Zhu Yitong also acted as if Gu Lingxi didn't exist.
After a moment of silence, the atmosphere in the car turned extremely awkward. Even if the driver wanted to say something, he couldn't bring himself to do so. He always felt that whatever he said would be a type of awkward conversation.
The address that Zhu Yitong gave to the driver was Zhao Haoyu's residence. They arrived at the place in half an hour. Gu Linxi opened the car door, and then helped Zhu Yitong out of the car from the other side.
”Be careful.” Gu Linxi paid the driver and then said, ”Lil 'Bro, can you wait for me here for a bit? I'll send her back immediately.”
”Master, you should leave first. My friends and I still have things to talk about.” Zhu Yi Tong didn't want Gu Lin Xi to leave so quickly, so she urged the driver to leave quickly.
This put the driver in a difficult position. He glanced at the two of them and then left. In any case, these two women knew each other, so he definitely wouldn't get involved with the matters between them.
Seeing that the car had already left, Gu Linxi could only calm down and slowly help Zhu Yitong enter. For the first time, Gu Linxi realised that the place Zhu Yi Tong lived in was actually pretty good. The environment here was also very relaxing. She couldn't help but take a few more glances. Gu Linxi had previously wondered what kind of house she and Jiang Jiayi were going to buy, and this place was very much in line with what she had described to him at that time.
”You live here?”
Seeing Zhu Yi Tong open the door to this building, Gu Lin Xi immediately felt that the owner of this building wasn't Zhu Yi Tong. The racks in the hall were also men's shoes. Even the shoes looked familiar. Gu Linxi didn't seem to recall where she had seen these shoes before, but she was suspicious that they weren't from Zhu Yi Tong's home.
Zhu Yitong's eyes sparkled. She hid a smile and said, ”I will stay with my cousin for the time being. This is his home.”
Her cousin? Zhao Haoyu. That look suddenly came back to Gu Linxi's mind, causing a chill to run through his heart. Standing at this place, they also felt a little shady. When Gu Linxi thought of the name Zhao Haoyu in his heart, she couldn't help but sound the alarm. In fact, she even had the thought of running away.
”Right, how are you getting along with my cousin?” Zhu Yi Tong changed the topic and brewed a pot of tea. Then, she poured the tea into a teacup and placed it in front of Gu Lin Xi. As if they were chatting, Zhu Yi Tong began to talk about Zhao Haoyu.
Gu Linxi went silent. There was no possibility that Zhao Haoyu and her existed.
Zhu Yitong smiled. She naturally knew that both Zhao Haoyu and Gu Linxi didn't seem to be progressing smoothly. If not for this, Zhao Haoyu wouldn't have been willing to use other methods.
”What happened before was my fault. I just care too much about the past, so I can't help but vent my anger on you. Actually, I know that you have nothing to do with it, but... I guess I was really confused at the time. ” Zhu Yitong couldn't help but feel a little lonely. The only thing she showed was her longing for Wen Ruelou.
Under Zhu Yitong's passionate performance, Gu Linxi gradually lost her vigilance. In truth, she could understand Zhu Yi Tong's feelings. After all, she loved a man deeply and had done many strange things for him. However, even though he understood, Gu Linxi wasn't completely relieved.
