Chapter 207 - I won’t like you (1) (1/2)

The man’s deep and elegant voice bellowed through the office, “Assistant Lin, you can step out for a moment.”

Assistant Lin paused for a moment, before quickly nodding his head and releasing Su Ziqian. He bowed slightly before taking his leave, closing the door behind him.

Su Ziqian was ecstatic. Not even taking the time to wipe her tears, she scrambled to her feet and ran towards Gu Yu. With red-rimmed eyes, she gazed at him pitifully, calling out, aggrieved, “Yu, I knew that you wouldn’t bear to do this to me!”

Gu Yu put aside the fountain pen in his hand and leaned back in his chair. A tinge of fatigue graced his handsome features, and his eyes were a little red, it was as if… he hadn’t had a wink of sleep.

But, the look he gave Su Ziqian was ice cold, not even a tinge of warmth was in his eyes.

Seeing the look he gave her, Su Ziqian couldn’t help but tremble. Anxiety overwhelmed her, and she spurted out without a second thought, “Yu, I know… I shouldn’t have caused a ruckus at such an important event like the year-end banquet, I know that I was wrong. But I…. I only did that because jealousy got the better of me, I didn’t do it on purpose. I won’t do that again! Don’t be angry anymore, okay?”

Gu Yu remained silent.

Tears rolled down Su Ziqian’s cheeks, like pearls of a broken necklace, “Yu, I really love you so much, I only became this way because of how much I love you. I didn’t want to end up being so pathetic either, but I really have no control over myself. Yu… you understand, right?”

Gu Yu’s slender fingers rubbed his furrowed brows before he got to his feet and walked around his desk. He walked towards Su Ziqian, until the two were about a step apart, and stopped.

The man stood tall, an aloof expression on his face. At that moment, it made Su Ziqian feel an inexplicable sense of distance between both of them, even though… he was right before her eyes.

Gu Yu’s thin lips parted, his voice hollow, “Su Ziqian, do you still remember, what I said to you when we met for the first time?”
