“Something suddenly happened. I won’t be returning today.” Wang Manpeng’s voice became warm.
“Stinky boy, has your old problems re-occurred? You didn’t even call even though you were not coming home. I made an entire table to food. Who will eat it!”
Although Wang Manpeng clearly understood that Mrs. Gu’s care, criticism, and grumbling was meant for Gu Zhiqian, however, he still missed that king of feeling. After all, it has been a long time since he last felt the warmth of home.
“Then just save those leftovers. I’ll return tomorrow, and you can just heat it up for me.”
“This child. You hate eating leftovers the most. Even though you are saying such things, when you return, if I really left you leftovers, you will definitely be mad. It’s not like that hasn’t happened before.”
Mrs. Gu’s words made Wang Manpeng’s expression freeze. Just as he had told Mandy that at the end of the day, she wasn’t Ling Tianya, it was the same for him. At the end of the day, he wasn’t Gu Zhiqian.
He wouldn’t get angry because he needed to eat leftovers. As long as it is food from home, why can’t leftovers be eaten?
Thinking about this, Wang Manpeng’s heart once again became unsettled.
“Stinky boy, why aren’t you talking?” Mrs. Gu asked.
“Nothing…” Wang Manpeng returned back to the present and said, “Anyways, I definitely will be back tomorrow.”
“Then it’s decided. You can’t lie to mom again, alright?”
“I got it.”
After ending his call with Mrs. Gu, Wang Manpeng’s heart once began to feel complicated. If Mrs. Gu knew that her son, who had changed his character recently, was actually someone else’s fake identity, how would she feel?
If she found out that he was a fake, would she still treat him like she is now?
Suddenly, Wang Manpeng didn’t want to forsake the identity of Gu Zhiqian. He wanted to always be Gu Zhiqian.
However, he also knew that that was impossible.
When Mandy walked out of Wang Manpeng’s room, Mike was still standing there, holding his bloody face. Upon seeing Mandy walking out unharmed, he relaxed and said, “It’s good that you are fine.”
At this time, Mandy felt disgusted by the way Mike looked, and therefore, her tone worsened. “Of course, I’m fine. Your leader is my elder brother. What will he do to me?”
Mandy’s tone made Mike freeze. Previously, when she told him to go and teach Ling Tianya a lesson, she was not using that sort of tone. Even before, she was not using this type of tone.
Why was she speaking to him with such a tone now? That tone was full of dislike and disgust and made Mike hear the truth.
It was also clear that in front of him, Mandy was putting on the airs of being the leader’s younger sister.
This kind of Mandy was unfamiliar to Mike.
Seeing that Mike was still standing there and not leaving, Mandy unhappily said, “I’m heading back to rest. You’re on your own. Also, it is best that you let a doctor check out your ear. Perhaps he can sew it back. Or else, with that place naked, it is extremely ugly.”
After she was done speaking, Mandy gracefully walked in the direction of her room.
Mike looked at his ear, which has been sliced, in his hand, and then looked at disliking figure and complicated feelings aroused in his heart.
Ling Tianya did not sleep for the entire night. Now, it was already morning, and the wild cat who stayed on the tree lazily stretched. For him, it was the start of a wonderful morning.
However, for Ling Tianya, it was the start of another painful day.
Finally, the wild cat on the tree finally saw Ling Tianya, who was looking out of the window. During this period of time, when Ling Tianya was locked here, her only pastime was watching the wild cat on the tree.
