”What happened last night …” Chu Yu suddenly interrupted him, the look of shock in his eyes turning into calmness and his tone became calm.

”Hmm?” Xiang Qicheng's lips curled up into a smile, as he quietly waited for her reply.

”Let's just pretend that what happened last night never happened.” Her clear eyes looked at him, and her tone was not one of consultation, but of certainty.

In any case, that kind of thing was something that he was willing to do and she wouldn't care about it. She only hoped that Xiang Qicheng would forget about it sooner so that she wouldn't be troubled.

”What did you say?” Hearing Chu Yu's words, Xiang Qicheng's smile obviously stiffened at the corner of his mouth, and he asked in disbelief.

He clearly understood the meaning behind Chu Yu's words. If nothing happened, it would mean that they were still the same as before. To put it harshly, they were like strangers. She rejected him in a disguised manner and didn't leave any room for manoeuvre.

”What happened last night was only your wish and mine. You don't have to take it to heart, and I won't ask you to take any responsibility. Alright, I need to get dressed. Her simple and clear words directly destroyed Xiang Qicheng's enormous expectation and excitement.

Standing in the living room and looking at the closed door, Xiang Qicheng felt a bitter and bitter taste rolling in his throat.

Are you willing? To think that she was able to say those words so easily. Towards Chu Yu, he had always been serious. There had never been any desire between you two, she … Was he mistaken about her?

Moreover, Chu Yu's last sentence had completely destroyed the last bit of defense in his heart. The women outside, after going to bed, wanted the male side to take responsibility for them, but Chu Yu was different. She rejected him without hesitation, not even willing to give him a chance to take responsibility.

How unwilling was she to be with him? Xiang Qicheng laughed self-deprecatingly, looking at the Chinese breakfast on the table, he felt even more sarcastic.

The door opened with a ”kacha” sound, and Chu Yu walked out while carrying his bag.

”I'll be going back first, so that Rui Ni won't find out that I've been gone all night.” She stuck her tongue out and laughed at Xiang Qicheng, as if everything that had just happened didn't exist at all.

Xiang Qicheng opened his mouth as though he wanted to say something, but in the end, he only nodded his head.

Passing by the dining table, Chu Yu noticed that the two of them were having Chinese breakfast, and was startled, a look of surprise flashed past his eyes.

He put on his shoes and left in a hurry.

She did not want to go back home and be questioned by Rui Ni about where she had gone to, even if she asked him about the results it would be obvious. Xiang Qicheng stayed at the hotel and she did not have any friends here, so other than going to find Xiang Qicheng, there was no other place she could go.

Inside the suite, Xiang Qicheng was weakly sitting on the sofa as he looked at the tightly shut door. This door completely separated Chu Yu from him. Since she rejected him from leaving this place, it meant that there were no more possibilities between the two of them.

Although he had already mentally prepared himself, why was his heart still in such pain?

Separated by a street of apartments, Chu Yu carefully turned the key to open the door, trying to keep the sound of his actions to a minimum.

”Eh, where did you go this early in the morning?” She did not expect to see Rui Ni sitting at the table and eating breakfast the moment she entered the room. She stirred the black coffee in her glass and smiled as if she was gossiping.

Chu Yu was so shocked that his hands dropped the key. He bent down to pick it up and said guiltily: ”I went out to buy something.”
