Gu Yunzhi hung up the phone, looking at Chu Ai with a complex expression, not knowing how to start.
“What’s wrong?” Chu Ai saw his troubled look and asked, “What did she say?”
Gu Yunzhi helplessly said, “She’s here!”
“What?” Chu Ai gasped softly, “You mean, she’s in Shanghai?”
Gu Yunzhi smiled bitterly, “Right in the hotel lobby!”
Chu Ai took a sharp breath. A sudden attack? This woman was something else, silently catching them off guard. From Gu Yunzhi’s appearance, he definitely didn’t know she was coming. “Why is she here?” She tried to remain calm, “Not to celebrate your birthday, right? You said she wasn’t into that sort of thing.”
Gu Yunzhi’s expression was nothing but helplessness, “I don’t know why she suddenly came! Little Ai, I’m sorry, I…”
“I understand!” Chu Ai nodded, pretending to be nonchalant, “Go down, don’t let her wait too long!”
“What about you?” Gu Yunzhi looked at her guiltily.
“I’ll sit here and finish my meal. It’s a rare chance to see Shanghai’s night view. I’ll find a hotel to stay in tonight and return to Beijing tomorrow,” she smiled, “Don’t worry about me, I’ll take care of myself!”
Gu Yunzhi looked at her deeply. He could see she was forcing a smile and wanted to stay with her, but he had to go.
Chu Ai’s smile collapsed the moment he turned away. She desperately told herself: Don’t be angry, don’t be disappointed, don’t complain, don’t get mad, nothing! Because this is the path you chose. You knew he had a wife when you first met him. You can’t demand or expect him like a real couple! But despite this, her tears fell involuntarily. At this moment, she truly felt that her love was destined to be hidden, never seeing the light of day!
Finally, a black car agreed to take her back to Beijing overnight. On the way, an unprecedented sense of desolation surged in her heart.
She felt her life was like the road in this dark night, directionless, with no end in sight. Suddenly, sadness overwhelmed her, and she couldn’t help but cry.
