章 253: Gu Ren

~Flashback~

The woman's hair was disheveled. The expression in her eyes was blank compared to the smile she had on her face. 

The woman was smiling. However, her smile bore no joy. It was fake--empty, devoid of any emotion like she was forcing herself to be happy herself. 

She held two dolls. The male doll was on her left hand and a female doll on her right. The female toy specifically looked like her, and the male looked like a CEO of one company. 

The dolls in her hands wore wedding clothes as the woman played with them as if she was a child playing Barbie dolls for the first time. 

"Don't you love me, Wang Lu?" 

The girl voiced out as if the female doll was talking. The woman then moved the male toy, her voice deep as she acted speaking like him. 

"Yes, Gu Ren," the woman's voice was deep, "I love you. That's why I asked you to marry me."
