Back Then, I Adored You Chapter 94

Being yelled at by Gu Yusheng, Xiaow.a.n.g was shocked, and his foot slipped. The car abruptly veered to one side of the road, making Qin Zhi’ai fall into Gu Yusheng’s arms unguardedly.

Gu Yusheng’s body suddenly froze and his eyebrows furrowed.

When Qin Zhi’ai fell into Gu Yusheng’s arms, she raised her head to see his face in panic. Perceiving the change of his mood, she was so scared that she quickly moved out of his arms even before she could even form a thought. She straightened her body and moved toward the door, leaving a larger distance between them.

Seeing her quick moves, his eyebrows became even more furrowed. He yelled at Xiaow.a.n.g again, “Do you know how to drive? I shouldn’t pay you if you don’t!”

Xiaow.a.n.g was so afraid that he didn’t dare to even breath. He went out of the car quickly, ran behind the car and took two towels out from the trunk. Then he ran back into the car, handed the towels to Qin Zhi’ai, and restarted the car.

Covered by the umbrella, the upper part of Qin Zhi’ai’s body didn’t get wet. She immediately dried the lower part with the towel. She saw some dirty water, mud, and even a trace of blood on the floor of the car where she had just stepped.

Qin Zhi’ai thought that Gu Yusheng had asked Xiaow.a.n.g to fetch the towels for her because he had been afraid that she might soil his car. She hesitated with a towel in her hand for a moment, then bent over to wipe the mud off of her soles.

Gu Yusheng just became more upset when he saw what she was doing. He secretly wanted to ask Xiaow.a.n.g to lower the temperature in the car, but when he saw the wet dress stuck to Qin Zhi’ai’s body, he suddenly swallowed his words. The annoyance in his heart increased. He undid two b.u.t.tons on his chest, but it seemed to make no difference, so he reached out instinctively to take out a cigarette.

While looking for a lighter, Gu Yusheng lowered his head and saw some bloodstains on the towel that Qin Zhi’ai was holding in her hand.

His lips trembled subconsciously, the cigarette consequently falling out of his mouth.

He kept his head down and looked at the towel for a while. Then he picked the cigarette up and put it into his mouth. As he lit the cigarette, he took a glance outside. They had already made it into the city, and they were still quite a distance from their home…

“To the Four Seasons Hotel.” Even Gu Yusheng himself didn’t know exactly what he was thinking, but the words had already come out of his mouth.

Gu Yusheng blew smoke out and added, “Lu Bancheng and the others are waiting for me there.”

⋯

When the car stopped at the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel, Qin Zhi’ai was ready to tell Gu Yusheng that she would go home by herself, but Gu Yusheng said to Xiaow.a.n.g before she could open her mouth, “Take her to my room and get some clothes for her.”

Then, without waiting for anyone to respond, he pushed the door open, got out of the car, and walked into the lobby of the Four Seasons Hotel.
