After getting his permission, a man pushed the door open.
“President Gu, Mr. Shi has arrived.”
As soon as she heard his name, Zuo Weiyi quickly glanced at the door.
That Mr. Shi he mentioned, was it Shi Yuting?
The corner of Gu Yansheng’s mouth curled up into a faint smile. “He is earlier than I thought.”
He only had this mansion of his for three days, but he did not expect Shi Yuting to find out about it so quickly.
Gu Yansheng turned his head around and smiled at Zuo Weiyi. “Rest up.”
He then left the room.
As soon as he arrived on the lower floor, two figures were standing in the living room.
“To what do I owe the honor of Mr. Shi’s visit?”
Shi Yuting turned his head toward Gu Yansheng who was walking down the staircase as he heard his voice, a visible coldness appeared in his eyes.
“Where is Zuo Weiyi?” He went straight to the point.
Gu Yansheng grinned. “Weiyi is doing fine at my place, I don’t intend to hand her over to you.”
Weiyi?
Shi Yuting squinted. The way he called her with such intimacy, what relationship did they have?
“I don’t need your approval if I said I want her.” He glared coldly at Gu Yansheng.
“Is that so?” He scoffed. “What if I insist on keeping her?”
“Hand her over.”
When he knew that the pool of blood was hers, his heart kept teetering over the edge of anxiety. He had never felt such uneasiness. Visions of the day she fainted in the mountain with a full body of wounds flashed in his mind, over and over again.
That feeling suffocated him.
Staring into his cold eyes, Gu Yansheng stayed silent as his smile faded away slowly. A certain tension began to build between the two of them.
For a moment, Shi Yuting smelled a scent that was similar to Zuo Weiyi’s in the luxurious living room. He tilted his head up immediately and saw a familiar figure standing at the top of the staircase.
Zuo Weiyi was curious if “Mr. Shi” was really Shi Yuting, so she had walked out of her room and headed to the stairs. To her expectation, it was Shi Yuting.
When her figure appeared, Shi Yuting rushed to the stairs without any hesitation.
Seeing that he wanted to head upstairs, Gu Yansheng stretched out his arm, intending to stop him.
However, Shi Yuting dodged the outstretched arm with his quick reflexes. Before anyone could catch sight of him, he had already reached the top of the stairs and was standing in front of Zuo Weiyi.
Staring at the person in front of him, a flicker of concern flashed in his eyes, but Zuo Weiyi did not manage to catch it.
She only caught the rage within his eyes and his furious scolding, “Are you hiding from me?!”
He was pacing around anxiously for three days, yet she was here hiding with another man!
“I…”
Zuo Weiyi’s sentence was cut off by his roar.
“These three days, do you know how much I…” worry about you? The three remaining words were stuck in his throat.
Ever since he met this woman, his emotions were out of control. Whenever she was involved in something, his heart was disturbed.
“Zuo Weiyi, don’t you ever think about escaping me unless I abandon you, or else, you can’t run away from my side. Are you clear?”
Zuo Weiyi lifted her head up and looked into his dark eyes, slowly opening her mouth. “It’s not that I want to run away from you, I was just… injured. I just woke up today.”
As he heard that she was wounded, his heart felt painfully pinched. Unconsciously, concern appeared in his eyes. “What happened to you?”
