Chapitre 24: Playing Games with Me? (4)
Éditeur: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Gu Yusheng seemed to have nothing else to say, but he suddenly stopped.
He was absent-minded for a minute, as if he had fallen into a trance, then he sneered after coming back to himself.
His laugh was very brief, like his previous ones directed at Qin Zhi'ai, but there was something different about it.
When he laughed, a hint of desperation and sadness entered his eyes, as if he had no way out of his situation. However, that emotion was overwhelmed by his aloof facial expression.
He raised his hand, tidied his clothes up, opened the door, and walked away.
As the door closed, Qin Zhi'ai blinked and raised her head, which had been buried between her knees.
She was afraid that someone would suddenly enter the bathroom, so she moved her sore body painfully to the door and locked it again.
Such a simple action as this had almost exhausted all the strength in her body. She collapsed against the cool door and slowly returned to the ground.
Qin Zhi'ai had been sitting there stiffly for a long time when she finally restored a bit of her strength.
Her dress was in rags that couldn't cover her entire body.
When she had been pulled into the bathroom by Gu Yusheng, Zhou Jing's handbag was left outside, so there was no cell phone around and she couldn't contact anyone. Unsure if the party downstairs had ended yet, she didn't dare leave, for she was afraid that someone would catch her looking disheveled.
Next to the bathtub, there was a small window. Qin Zhi'ai was alone in the bathroom, staring at the sky through the window. She didn't hear any sounds until the night turned into dusk.
The servant responsible for cleaning the villa knocked on the door. From what the servant said, Qin Zhi'ai learned that the party had ended and everyone was already gone save for her.
Qin Zhi'ai was relieved, then asked the servant to get her a change of clothes.
Before leaving, she didn't forget to take the clothes that had been shredded by Gu Yusheng.
When she got home, she walked directly upstairs and without having dinner, got in bed after taking a shower.
Although she was in bed, she couldn't fall asleep. With her eyes closed, she couldn't help think about what Gu Yusheng had said before leaving. "If you are not afraid that I will torture you to death treating you the way I did just now, by all means, you can get Grandpa to stay in our house…"
Qin Zhi'ai figured out what had happened in mere seconds.
When she grabbed Zhou Jing's handbag and was about to walk away, it was Grandpa who had been speaking with Gu Yusheng over the phone.
Although she hadn't heard the words directly, she believed Grandpa was telling Gu Yusheng that he was going to live with them in the villa for a period of time.
That day, she had splashed wine on his sleeve, bumped into him, and rushed into the room where he stayed alone. He must have thought that she did all these things deliberately.
Therefore, Grandpa's phone call undoubtedly made things worse, and completely aggravated his temper.
