The two waves merged together again. They were still surging, gathering, separating, chasing…
There seemed to be no sign of an end, nor was there any possibility of completion.
The disappointment in Gu Zhengrong’s heart was magnified as he looked at Tang Xiaoyu’s back. He thought that this woman might smile gently in another man’s arms in the future or give birth to a cute baby for another man, but that man was not him, not Gu Zhengrong.
At the thought of this, Gu Zhengrong could not control his emotions.
“Xiaoyu, you won’t forgive me today, right?”
Tang Xiaoyu had her back facing Gu Zhengrong and did not make a sound. Under her exquisite face was a despair that she could not hold back her tears.
“Xiaoyu, I love you. I really love you. I didn’t consider your feelings in the past. Back then, I was too much of a jerk. I thought that Pei Ge was the love of my life, but I didn’t expect that the person I truly love had already been hurt by me. The person I love was by my side, watching me suffer, feel sad, and even buy myself a break when I’m drunk. But Xiaoyu, do you know? I’ve never felt happy. When you were by my side, I thought that I would hate you, but I didn’t…”
Gu Zhengrong stopped. The tears in his eyes rolled down his cheeks and landed on the ground. They were drowned in the dust and he could not hear anything. He could only hear the sound of his heart breaking as it got louder.
It turned out that loving someone could make him so humble, so unbothered, and so unforgettable.
“Xiaoyu, I really thought that you wouldn’t come back, that you wouldn’t return to my side, but when I saw you at the jewelry bidding that day, do you know how I felt? Do you know what kind of expression I had back then? You don’t know because no matter how surprised and happy I was, my heart broke when I saw you with Mr Li. I thought that the person I truly loved was Pei Ge, who was married to the world-famous Ji Ziming. I was so silly. I was really so silly. I didn’t think that I loved anyone. When I saw you, I knew that I could never abandon you or leave you alone. I hope that you will succeed. I hope that you will do better than Pei Ge, because the woman I love is the most outstanding woman in the world.”
Gu Zhengrong looked at Tang Xiaoyu through the tears in his eyes. Tang Xiaoyu’s figure slowly enlarged. This woman’s heart seemed to become more and more unpredictable in front of him.
In reality, even before Gu Zhengrong spoke, Tang Xiaoyu’s heart had already made him unable to understand. What this man lacked was not love or patience, but courage to accompany her.
“Gu Zhengrong, are you done?”
Tang Xiaoyu finally turned around and looked at Gu Zhengrong. “Gu Zhengrong, if you’re done, can you bring me back? You don’t have to attend today’s meeting, but as the Li Corporation’s representative, if I don’t attend, what would happen to Mr Li’s reputation? What about my reputation?”
Tang Xiaoyu could only come up with a plan to convince Gu Zhengrong. This man was always a little slower than she thought, but it was reasonable for him to be in his current position. This man’s professionalism impressed her.
“Just leave it with me.”
Gu Zhengrong mustered his courage out of nowhere and strode forward to hug Tang Xiaoyu’s slender waist tightly. Their lips were tightly pressed together and under the sunlight, the two became inseparable. Tang Xiaoyu was stunned, while Gu Zhengrong became bolder and bolder. She could not understand what this man was thinking.
“Are you done?”
Tang Xiaoyu suddenly pushed him away and scolded, “You…”
“Xiaoyu, I love you!”
Before Tang Xiaoyu could finish speaking, Gu Zhengrong hugged her tightly in his arms again. No one could imagine what this man was thinking. Gu Zhengrong only wanted Tang Xiaoyu, just her.
Tang Xiaoyu could no longer push Gu Zhengrong away. She could no longer let this man stay by her side, but she could not push him away or move him. Gu Zhengrong, who was hugging Tang Xiaoyu tightly like a boulder, did not move.
The two of them kissed for quite a while until Tang Xiaoyu bit Gu Zhengrong’s lips. Gu Zhengrong then released his lips in pain but his hands did not leave their original position.
“Xiaoyu, you’re so cruel. Have you ever thought that I would be very sad if you left me alone? Have you ever thought about what I would do if I didn’t have you? If I didn’t have you, where would I find you? If I didn’t have you, what’s the point of living?”
Gu Zhengrong’s eyes were filled with sorrow as he tightened his grip. Tang Xiaoyu’s slender waist could not take it and finally cried out in pain.
“Gu Zhengrong, let go of me. Show me some respect. If you know that this isn’t your house and I’m not your maid, I’m not the female leader you want to target.”
Tang Xiaoyu tried to pry Gu Zhengrong’s hand away, but no matter how hard she tried, they could not separate. Gu Zhengrong did it on purpose, and it was what Tang Xiaoyu hoped for the most.
“Xiaoyu, I don’t care. Now that you’re back, I want to accompany you properly. I want to let you know that I’m serious about you and that I’m really devoted to you. It’s fine if you really don’t want to accept me. I’ll learn and do whatever you like. As long as you’re happy, I can accept anything. As long as you’re willing to come back, I don’t care about anything.”
Gu Zhengrong’s lips were slightly bleeding and the red glow made Tang Xiaoyu’s heart bleed a little. Wasn’t she too scary like this? However, the moment Tang Xiaoyu decided to come back, she was already prepared to fight him to the death. However, today, everything seemed to be scarier than she imagined.
“Xiaoyu, I love you. I really love you. Then, are you willing to give me something to make up for it? As long as you’re willing, I’ll go with you to the places you wanted to go in the past. We’ll go sightseeing and eat a lot of things that we’ve never eaten before. As long as you’re willing.”
