Chapter 219 - 220:1 Also Live Here
After getting out of the car, Xia Yangyang ran away.
She finally stopped by a bus stop on the side of the road.
Unable to hold back her grievance, she broke into tears.
Why did it turn out this way?
Xia Yangyang was at a loss, even though nothing had actually happened.
Xia Yangyang sat on the bench for a long time, stunned.
Anyway, she didn’t want to go back.
Seeing Gu Qichen’s suspecting gaze hurt like a sharp knife.
But she didn’t want to go home either.
Xia Weiwei was just waiting to mock her; she couldn’t go home in such a vulnerable state.
Xia Yangyang scrolled through her phone, and ended up dialing Wen Xiaochu.
Wen Xiaochu arrived twenty minutes later.
After a few words, they both left together.
However, at that exact moment, a black Maybach was parked not far from the bus stop.
The man inside, wearing a gloomy expression, and the tip of his cigarette glowing red.
But he just lit the cigarette, he didn’t smoke it, waiting until the red fire at the tip burnt out before lighting another.
The car filled with smoke, reeking of strong tobacco.
Gu Qichen did not actually like this smell.
However, this slightly bitter scent seemed to cool him down.
Why did he say those things to hurt her intentionally?
Even Gu Qichen found himself foolish.
Knowing she was innocent, he should’ve kept her safe by his side, especially at this time.
That’s what his rationality told him.
But every time he imagined Xia Yangyang sitting next to Gu Zhaohan, his heart ached like a poisonous snake was coiling around it.
He heard every word that was said.
Since his childhood, Xiaohan had never shared these things with his family.
Gu Qichen only then realized the extent of his burdens and conflicts.
What Gu Qichen could not accept was that Xia Yangyang was the first person who opened his heart.
Gu Qichen knew how serious this was.
Gu Zhaohan was similar to him in many ways. Once emotionally involved, it would be hard for them to let go.
And every time she tried to justify herself in front of him, saying things like, “the innocent had nothing to fear,” Gu Qichen felt incredibly frustrated.
What a fool!
Couldn’t she sense it at all?
Gu Qichen’s distrust was not towards Xia Yangyang, but towards himself for the first time.
Xiaohan was someone he had personally brought up. He may seem cold on the outside, but he was warm-hearted.
They were of the same school, same age, sharing common topics.
In front of him, Xia Yangyang was inevitably reserved and careful.
However, it was different with Gu Zhaohan. Xia Yangyang seemed to take the initiative to joke around and tease him.
This made Gu Qichen feel that Xia Yangyang was more comfortable, more like herself, when she was with Gu Zhaohan.
For the first time, Gu Qichen realized that he could feel jealousy too!
His jealousy drove him mad!
Xia Yangyang got in the car with Wen Xiaochu.
She was distracted all the way.
But in the end, she found the car parked in front of Maple Villa.
Wen Xiaochu had already gotten out of the car.
After dismounting, Xia Yangyang asked, “Why did you bring me here? I don’t want to return, that’s why I asked you to shelter me.”
But after thinking about it, Wen Xiaochu lived on campus and the single beds there were quite narrow.
There wasn’t enough space for two people to lie down.
If she had known earlier, she would have stayed overnight in the school library.
Wen Xiaochu replied, “Don’t panic, no one said you had to go back home. I’ve moved out this semester, I also live here.”
