Chapter 1635
Yue now. 。After all, she still needs He Yue's financial support now. If she falls out with him, the one who will suffer is herself. 。Now that things have progressed to the final stage, Gu Chi's compa..."Get out!"
The mountain cat kicked the report on the ground with one foot. The secretary had left too hastily just now, leaving half a footprint on it. Looking at Gu Wang who was burying himself in the documents, the mountain cat felt an even stronger sense of guilt in his heart, mixed with entanglement and struggle.
"Boss, what are you making things difficult for yourself again" Mountain Cat lowered his usually high-pitched voice deliberately, whether out of guilt or some other reason.
Haven't all the storms we've weathered over the years been overcome How come, with such a trivial matter this time, you've reduced yourself to such a ghastly and inhuman state
Gu Wangqing let out a sigh: "Trivial matter" His voice was filled with sorrow. "If you were betrayed by the person you love twice, Shanmao, could you still stand before me so emotionlessly and tell me this is just a trivial matter!"
Seeing the mountain cat silent, Gu Wangji subsequently asked, “I ask you, didn’t you know all along!”
He kept snapping the cap on and off his pen, “Before, I told you to find out who was responsible for anything that happened, no matter what the outcome. You were always supposed to tell me everything you found out right away, but this time you didn’t.”
"I've thought of many possibilities, Mountain Cat. We are brothers who have been born and died before. So the only possibility that could make you so conflicted is Zhao Yizhao."
The mountain cat's throat moved, his voice as if something was stuck in it. Indeed, there was such a person in this world, one who could easily understand his thoughts without him uttering a single word.
Gu had calmed down by now. He inverted the black pen on the table and, stepping over the documents he'd flung to the floor, walked up to Shan Mao. Gazing at the old scar on his temple, a mark from a training injury years ago, he uttered a few words.
"I won't make things difficult for you, just tell me if it is or not."
The office was still filled with an awkward silence. Shanmao's current quietness only made Gu Wang feel as if the sky in his heart had suddenly collapsed.
He averted his gaze from the mountain cat's old scars, circling around him and brushing past.
One man was dressed in a suit and tie, the other in simple athletic wear, but both wore expressions that were hard to describe.
It's as if you and I stand together, within reach of returning to the celebration after a victorious battle. Yet, it also feels like you're far away from me, far from the 'yi' (righteousness) we jointly wrote.
The moment Gu Wàng's hand touched the doorknob, the mountain cat's raspy voice echoed behind him.
"He had dinner with that person at a hotel before Noah." As if afraid he didn't believe him, the mountain cat paused for a moment and added, "I saw it with my own eyes."
This time, Gu Wang was speechless. He had never considered the feeling of being alone in his sadness, heartbreak, confusion, and anger all swirling together, unable to express himself. All he could show was a terrifying silence and calmness.
And Zhao Yino's state of mind wasn't much better either. She locked herself in her room, sent a leave note to school, and threw her phone far away.
She even blamed herself for not being careful enough, because in one moment of carelessness, she let the note fall into Gu Wang's sight.
She shook her head, trying to push the thought out of her mind. She should be focusing on why she reacted so strongly when she saw that note. It was blank!
Even before the incidents with Jiang Chuan, which made headlines, Gu Wang would have simply instructed the mountain cat to investigate the instigator. It wouldn't have been like now, with no warning and him suddenly snapping at her.
Whenever Gu Wang forgets something, he always asks the mountain cat...
By the way!! Mountain cat! He must have found a mountain cat this time too!
Zhao Yino's eyes lit up. After finding the contact information for the mountain cat on her phone, she thought for a moment and finally decided to call Shangguan Nana.
Perhaps women can communicate better. Shanmao and Guwang are best friends, through thick and thin. If she asked Shanmao, the situation would be incredibly awkward. Moreover, there's no guarantee that Shanmao would tell her what she wants to know.Can you really bear to leave us" Mrs. Lin said, her voice choked with anguish. 。"It's hard to let go, but you can always come find me. After all, it's your house, you're free to come and go as you ple...
