Back Then, I Adored You

Chapter 217 Chapter 224~225 Other People's Wife (4~5)

He spoke very fast, and couldn't pronounce the words clearly. Qin Zhi'ai only vaguely heard him say a few words, but she didn't understand the specific words at all. She blurted out a sentence to Gu Yusheng: "What?"

Didn't she hear?

Gu Yusheng lowered his head and glanced at the time on his watch. There were still about twenty-five seconds left. He still didn't dare to look her in the eye, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and repeated what he had just said: "Birthday hapiness."

Because of his nervousness and embarrassment, his speaking speed was still a bit fast, but it was much slower than before, and his words were a little clearer. Qin Zhi'ai knew what he said by listening and guessing.

Happy birthday.

Today is Liang Doukou's birthday, he came all the way to Paris to celebrate Liang Doukou's birthday?

Thinking of this, Qin Zhi'ai lowered her head and looked at the gift box that Gu Yusheng had just stuffed into her arms. She didn't open it, so she didn't know what the gift was inside, but the brand logo on the box, she knew, was an international brand. A big brand, a jewelry maker, the price of just any item is something that Qin Zhi'ai can't afford even with a year's worth of money.

But some things, many times, are just so coincidental.

Her birthday was one day later than Liang Doukou's.

After five o'clock in the afternoon Paris time, it was her birthday.

The gift was not for her, and the happy birthday sentence just now was not for her... Then can she pretend not to hear it now, continue to ask him what he said, and then lie to say happy birthday, pretending it is What did he bless her?

Qin Zhi'ai quietly glanced at the clock on her wrist. It was 5:0:18, and her birthday was coming. She hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised her eyes and looked at Gu Yusheng: "You just now What are you talking about? I didn't hear you clearly..."

He tried his best to speak clearly the second time, but she still didn't catch it?

Gu Yusheng raised his wrist and glanced at the time. Her birthday had already passed, and he suddenly became a little annoyed in his heart, and even his tone revealed a trace of irritability: "It's fine if you don't hear clearly."

Qin Zhi'ai's eyes were stained with anticipation, but instantly dimmed. She quickly lowered her head and let out a soft "oh".

It turns out that what doesn't belong to her doesn't belong to her, and she can't even be deceived.

She was thinking too much just now... Qin Zhi'ai tried her best to raise the corners of her lips, then spoke again, changing the subject, "I'll get you a bottle of water."

After finishing speaking, Qin Zhi'ai turned around, walked to the bed, immediately put her on the bed, and took a bottle of mineral water from the bedside table.

She turned her back to Gu Yusheng, and wanted to take the time to unscrew the bottle cap to calm down the sadness in her heart, but the bottle cap was somehow wrong, she twisted it vigorously for a long time, but she couldn't unscrew it.

When she lowered her head, Gu Yusheng caught the loss in her eyes.

Did his unfriendly tone just now hurt her?

Although later, the smile she gave him was quiet and gentle, he thought, she was just trying to be brave, and he didn't want him to see her sadness...

Gu Yusheng stared at the back of her twisting the bottle cap for a moment, then suddenly strode up to her, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her to face him. He wanted to apologize to her, but also wanted to explain to her , moved her lips at last, then lowered her head and blocked her lips.

He really just wanted to kiss her at first, but unexpectedly, at the end of the kiss, he lost control.

After a long time, everything returned to calm.

Only then did his eyes slowly meet her eyes.

The kiss just now dyed her eyes with a layer of coquettishness, making her whole person extra alluring, but he still noticed with sharp eyes that the corners of her eyes were a little wet, as if she had tears just now.

He was silent for a moment, raised his hand, and gently stroked the hair next to her ear. The nervousness and embarrassment that he had when giving her a gift miraculously disappeared at this moment, and he stared at her After thinking for a while, he finally explained to her: "What I just told you is, happy birthday."

After a pause, Gu Yusheng lightly rubbed Qin Zhi'ai's cheek with his fingertips, and repeated the scribbled words he said when giving the gift: "Little trouble, happy birthday."

Qin Zhi'ai looked at the light in Gu Yusheng's eyes, and it suddenly became a little brighter.

...

Qin Zhi'ai had a dinner at 8:30 p.m., and Gu Yusheng came to England on a business trip, and he had a lot of things to do, so Gu Yusheng left before 7:00 p.m.

Qin Zhi'ai lay alone on the bed for a while, and when she was about to get out of bed to take a shower, she saw the gift box on the bedside table.

Even though she knew that it didn't belong to her, she still took the gift box, opened it, and glanced at the gift inside.

It was a very beautiful necklace studded with tiny diamonds, shining brightly under the light.

Qin Zhi'ai stretched out her hand and touched the necklace lightly. With just one touch, she immediately withdrew her fingers, then carefully closed the box with a bit of envy, and put it back on the bedside table.

In fact, there is nothing to envy, is there?

At least, on her birthday, she heard him say "Happy Birthday" as she wished.

Although it wasn't for her, it was still a sweet dream after all, so she should be happy.

-

Gu Yusheng flew back to Beijing one day before Qin Zhi'ai.

After getting off the plane, Qin Zhi'ai went straight back to Gu Yusheng's villa.

It was lunch time at noon, and the housekeeper called her in advance, and had already prepared lunch.

Qin Zhi'ai went back upstairs after eating.

She first put the birthday present that Gu Yusheng bought for Liang Doukou in the closet, and then she climbed into bed to rest. Just as she fell asleep, the phone rang.
