The people in the opposite room were still talking and drinking, but all of them seemed to be distracted.
Mr. Yang was the first one who couldn’t retain his composure, saying worriedly, “I feel like something serious will happen.”
Someone didn’t realize what Mr. Yang meant, asking, “What will?”
“Mr. Gu…” Mr. Yang put his microphone away and ran to the coffee table. He squatted down and continued, “I know that Mr. Gu has a bad temper, but I’ve never seen him so angry at a woman.”
While Mr. Yang spoke, Gu Yusheng’s fierce look reemerged in everyone’s minds. He had seemed like he would kill her when he had dragged Qin Zhi’ai into the suite. All the people inside the room shivered. Someone couldn’t help but ask, “What if Mr. Gu couldn’t control his anger? Will he kill her by accident?”
“He probably won’t…” Lu Bancheng, who hadn’t said anything, suddenly responded with uncertainty. He took a sip of wine, but before he swallowed it, he put the glass down, saying, “I should go check it out.”
Lu Bancheng walked to the door of Gu Yusheng’s suite and paused for a moment. When he raised his hand to knock on the door, the door was pulled open from the inside and someone rushed out.
Because the movement had been so fast, the person who had rushed out bumped into Lu Bancheng’s arms before he could react.
Lu Bancheng was stunned, then sighed with relief. Fortunately, nothing serious happened. He grabbed Qin Zhi’ai by the shoulders and said, “Xiaokou?”
Seeing the bag in Qin Zhi’ai’s hand, Lu Bancheng added, “Don’t you want to play for a while? Are you leaving now?”
Qin Zhi’ai didn’t expect that someone would be standing behind the door, so she was shocked when she bumped into Lu Bancheng’s arms. After she recovered from the shock, she immediately took a step back, leaving a larger distance between them.
Hearing what Lu Bancheng said, she had meant to raise her head and tell him no with a smile. At that moment, her face was full of tears, and she seemed to have a lump in her throat, so she couldn’t make a sound. She just nodded to him with her head downcast, then ran past him.
She was in such a hurry that she stumbled, her body imbalanced, and fell to the ground.
Gu Yusheng lay in bed with his back against the headboard, but when he saw that, he immediately got up without thinking. When he was about to jump out of the bed, he saw Lu Bancheng reach out to support her.
With a sigh of relief, Gu Yusheng stopped his actions and pulled the quilt over to cover his body. Then he heard Qin Zhi’ai say in a soft voice, “Thank you.”
She didn’t express her thanks to me even when I picked her up in a downpour. Now that Lu Bancheng supported her, she said thanks to him?
Gu Yusheng frowned and looked towards the door. Qin Zhi’ai kept her head down. Lu Bancheng held her arms and asked gently, “Are you hurt?”
