Chapter 145 - Archrivals (1) (1/2)
Emotions were perishable and needed to be maintained. Once they were extinguished, it became very hard to ignite them again.
After breakfast, Xu Weilai did not want to leave the house with Gu Yu. She wanted to avoid having to put on another act of a loving wife sending her husband off to work. Therefore, she deliberately dawdled in the bedroom until she was sure that Gu Yu had left. Only then did she hurriedly dash out of the room and slip on her shoes. While mumbling a goodbye to Mrs. Lin, she yanked the door open and ran out.
When it came to securing exclusive interviews for news outlets, time was of the essence!
When Mrs. Lin saw the situation, she couldn’t help but shake her head and chuckle. Young Mistress was clearly in a rush but had insisted on hiding in the bedroom. Had she been waiting for the Young Master to leave before coming out?
This subconscious action of hers immediately contradicted the Young Mistress’ true feelings. Even though the Young Mistress had put on a convincing show, Mrs. Lin wasn’t so easily fooled!
However, she’d happily play along with them. She’d pretend that she didn’t know anything and quietly watch her and the Young Master keep up the charade. That way, the couple would be forced to engage in occasional displays of affection that would eventually improve their relationship!

Xu Weilai floored the gas pedal of her car, driving at a furious pace.
Thanks to Gu Yu, who had forced her to sit through his maniacal driving twice, she had learned to train her nerves. Right now, the speed she was going at was considered child’s play to her.
When she reached the airport’s parking lot, she spotted a parking space from afar. At the same time, another car was preparing to pull into it. With a sly smile on her face, she turned her steering wheel, confidently reversed into the parking space, and parked her car securely.
With haste, she pulled her keys out and alighted while shutting the car door behind her. She walked up to the other car that had been left without a parking space and knocked on the window.
