Chapter 61 (2/2)
When Xiao Yanting arrived on the second floor, the elegant violin catered to the soothing piano music, echoing in the restaurant, as if there was a romantic atmosphere in the air. Gu Yizhen saw Xiao Yanting coming, got up and walked to her, held her hand and walked to the table step by step. He even wrapped up the whole restaurant for himself.
Xiao Yanting looked at the handsome and tall man wearing a suit beside her. She didn't know if she was in a dream at this time. How could she have such a dream? This is the scene she had thought about countless times, beloved, romantic candlelight dinner.
”Miss Xiao, I apologize to you for being rude to you yesterday. I hope you don't take it to heart. This is a small gift. I hope you can accept it.”
Gu Yizhen picked up a box from the side and leaned over in front of her. Xiao Yanting was very surprised. He not only asked himself out, but also carefully prepared gifts.
Xiao Yanting opened the box and put a pair of high-heeled shoes inlaid with rhinestones and a delicate crystal bow on the upper. This is the pair of high-heeled shoes in the fairy tale that all girls dream of. Xiao Yanting took out one and stroked it gently. She really couldn't put it down.
”Thank you. I like this gift very much and thank you for coming here with me for dinner tonight.”
Xiao Yanting held back her joy, put the gift away and responded politely to him. Gu Yizhen looked at her words and deeds, and finally felt that she was like the daughter of a rich family.
Maybe it was because of the sudden incident yesterday that she was so rude, but she didn't hide it in front of herself. She was a very frank girl. Sure enough, people still have to get along before they can know what kind of character they are. It feels good to meet her today. She is a very polite girl.
Gu Yizhen thought for a long time about how to speak, but Xiao Yanting couldn't help it. She asked first.
”Why did you ask me out so suddenly today? I want to know the reason...”
Gu Yizhen thought about it. It was always something to say, and he had been waiting for five years. It was long enough.
”Did you go to the Imperial Hotel five years ago, and there were some accidents there?”
Xiao Yanting certainly knew what he was going to ask, but she still had to pretend to be surprised, as if she had never heard of it. Her eyes were full of disbelief and shock.
”Yes, I've been there, and there have been things that have bothered me for the past five years.”
”I... Five years ago, I did something wrong to a girl in the Imperial Hotel, but I couldn't find her, so I want to know if it's you.”
Xiao Yanting suddenly reddened her eyes and looked at him with a complex look. At this moment, she thought that the person she was five years ago was herself. For a time, she entered the play too deeply, and her tears couldn't help falling down.
”I don't know... I... I drank too much and didn't know anything... When I woke up in the middle of the night, I found that I had... Nothing...” if I was really stupid, I quickly put on my clothes and ran out.
Sure enough, it's her. Gu Yizhen is really mixed now. He married Ye Xiaoan inexplicably because he was forced to marry at home. Now he found that it was Ye Xiaoan's sister who lost her five years ago. When he saw the red on the bed, he knew that the girl must have been very flustered at that time ”After so many years, I've always been homesick, so I discussed with my father to let me go home. My father is getting older and older, and I always have to take care of him. He also knows that it's not easy for me to live abroad for so many years. We all think that no one should remember that year, so my father assured me to come back.”
Gu Yizhen can understand why she hasn't found any clues about this matter in the past five years. Think about her alone because she has lived alone abroad for five years.
”I'm sorry, it was really my negligence that caused so much harm to you, and let you stay abroad alone for five years. Don't worry, since I know now that the person was you, I will make good compensation to you.”
