Chapter 72 - Too late
It was drizzling outside, and she and several girls around her didn’t have umbrellas, laughing and playing in the rain, her face was as bright as usual and there was no trace of haze.
He didn’t reveal himself, that kind of laughter, even if it was just a disguise, he couldn’t bear to disturb it.
After a while, Gong Xiaoqiao changed her clothes and walked out of the dormitory with a mask on her face and a big red windbreaker.
Gu Xingshen hid sideways behind the tree.
He hadn’t seen her wearing such a bright red color in four years.
Red clothes suited her very well. When she was a child, she always liked to wear bright and colorful dresses and jump around to attract his attention. “Brother Shen Shen, Xiao Qiao is here here…”
She had said, that it would be easier for him to see her…
At that time, Xiao Qiao always did every thing to strengthen her sense of existence, so afraid of being ignored and abandoned.
He didn’t know why, but he suddenly recalled the day he left for the United States to study abroad, the little guy stood at the airport in a red dress, tugging at the ends of his clothes with a stubborn expression, and her face full of fear…
When he first went to the United States, he never thought that there would be such a person to replace himself, but this person really appeared…
Gu Xingshen followed her all the way to the cemetery on the outskirts of the city.
There were a lot of white roses next to the gravestone, the petals covered with raindrops which looked very fresh. It seemed that someone had been there not long ago.
When Gong Xiaoqiao saw it, she angrily rushed to throw them away, and then took a small purple black flower from her pocket and placed it in front of the gravestone.
Unexpectedly… It was black mandala.
Representing desperation for love, no return, and revenge…
He had always thought that her heart had been cured more or less over the years, but the little flower seemed to be laughing at all his efforts.
The situation of that day emerged in Gu’s mind again.
She had said word for word in those days when he was away, she and Qin Yao once, she and Qin Yao forever…
Because of Qin Yao she had been in pain, because of Qin Yao, she had been hysterical, because of Qin Yao, she had been heartbroken…
Even after four years, as soon as Qin Yao appeared, all his previous efforts were instantly wiped out.
He didn’t know when it had started, every fight between them, every battle was because of Qin Yao…
Qin Yao, these two words, was like a nightmare that he couldn’t break free from.
Perhaps it was the fans of the authorities, but Gu Xingshen did not know that in the perspective of Gong Xiaoqiao, the direct cause of each war was not Qin Yao, but Gu Xiao Rou.
What she cared about was that he was biased for Gu Xiao Rou regardless of the circ.u.mstance, and what he cared about was that she was still out of control for Qin Yao after four years.
That day, after she had left, he had found the special card tied with a pink bow.
The little card cleverly lay there, instantly subverting all his principles and making him regret like never before!
Regret for her grievances, everything else…
What he should have done; what he shouldn’t have done; right, or wrong.
He had thought that she was angry with him, and had really forgotten his birthday, but found this card that she did not have time to send out.
On this day she was very darling and could not touch the soft touch.
The card was blank and with nothing written on it.
A blank card that represented a gift that he wanted.
She had always had a way to make him feel pain in his heart.
