Gu Sheng was on the phone while he left the room, passing by Gu Yao, and he could distinctly feel Gu Yao’s fear.
Did she also fear that he would harm her?
Clearly afraid, yet she still insisted on making a call to her elder brother behind his back—she really didn’t want him to stay in the United Kingdom.
"What are you trying to do? You know very well that Yaoyao suddenly decided to go to the United Kingdom because of you and Shangguan Yu—why do you still want to follow her?" Gu Li was very angry.
"Don’t worry. I won’t hurt her." Gu Sheng had come out to the balcony in the living room, where Gu Yao had just made the phone call from.
"I know you won’t hurt her, but she is afraid of you. If you stay by her side, she won’t be able to concentrate in class. Please listen to me, come back tomorrow, and leave Yaoyao there by herself."
Gu Sheng took a deep breath, looked at the scenery outside the balcony, and said, "Big brother, don’t you want me to become the old Asheng?"
The Gu Li on the other end of the phone suddenly fell silent, seemingly not expecting Gu Sheng to say such a thing. After a long while, he hesitantly asked,
"As long as Shangguan Yu isn’t there, of course I can."
"Do you still have other intentions towards Yaoyao?" He would be glad if he could revert to the old Asheng, but he couldn’t ignore Yaoyao’s feelings, nor could he afford to watch Gu Sheng make another mistake.
There’s no future for them.
If Asheng still held any expectations for his and Yaoyao’s future, then he would definitely rush to the United Kingdom to fetch him immediately.
"I’ll accompany her to finish these two years of university. After that, I won’t intervene in her affairs anymore."
The despair and helplessness in Gu Sheng’s words went unnoticed by Gu Li.
"I promise, just these two years."
Just these two years. After two years, even if he wanted to, he wouldn’t be able to intervene anymore.
Upon hearing Gu Sheng’s words, Gu Li finally felt relieved. "Then take good care of Yaoyao."
Gu Sheng ended the call, stared outside the balcony for a while, and then walked off the balcony, heading in the direction of Gu Yao’s room, and shouted, "I’m going out to buy some food. I’ll be back soon."
In her room, where she was feeling uneasy, Gu Yao was startled by Gu Sheng’s words.
Didn’t Big Brother ask him to return?
As Gu Yao was wondering, her phone chimed.
Hurriedly, Gu Yao checked the text message.
—Yaoyao, don’t be afraid of Asheng. He will change. He won’t lose his temper like he used to.
Upon seeing the message Gu Li sent, Gu Yao couldn’t keep calm and immediately called Gu Li back.
The result was the same as the text message.
"If Asheng loses his temper at you again, just tell Big Brother. I will definitely go to the United Kingdom and bring him back immediately. That’s it. You must be tired from the flight. Get some rest early."
Gu Li trusted Gu Sheng, just as he himself had said, as long as Shangguan Yu wasn’t there, he would be the old Gu Sheng.
Feeling helpless, Gu Yao sat on her bed and sulked for a while before going to take a shower.
After the shower, Gu Sheng still hadn’t returned.
Gu Yao locked the door of her room and went to bed to rest.
Just half an hour after lying down, the door was knocked.
"Yaoyao? Are you asleep? I bought something you love to eat. Come and have some," called Gu Sheng from outside the door.
Upon hearing Gu Sheng’s voice, Gu Yao involuntarily shrank back.
The drowsiness also faded away.
"I’m not hungry. You eat."
Gu Yao pulled the blanket up over her head and buried her head in the blanket. The most update n0vels are published on novel{f}ire.net
She was very annoyed, annoyed by Gu Sheng disrupting her plans, annoyed by Gu Sheng forcefully entering her new life.
