Chapter 95 - Choose To Be Choiceless

When she realized his tone had become calmer, Zuo Weiyi smiled silently. “I’m alright.”

“Then come home with me.” Shi Yuting grabbed her hand and headed downstairs.

“Weiyi…” As they reached the first floor, they were met with Gu Yansheng’s tender gaze.

He had more than enough for Zuo Weiyi to stay with him. She did not have to worry about clothes or her three meals. So naturally, he did not want her to return to Shi Yuting’s side.

Looking at her old friend, Zuo Weiyi smiled. “Thank you for saving me. I will treat you to a meal someday.”

“Don’t you want to leave?” Shi Yuting looked at her with anticipation.

Zuo Weiyi was stunned to hear his question and glanced at Shi Yuting briefly.

Seeing how luxurious his mansion was, Gu Yansheng was probably a very successful man now.

She could choose to stay here and leave Shi Yuting, but her heart would still be with him.

It was obvious to her that her existence to him was nothing more than a peasant’s presence, but she still wanted to go back to him.

Staring at Gu Yansheng, Zuo Weiyi forced a bitter smile. “I do. Well, some people have no choice, but I choose to be choiceless.”

She smiled at him one last time before walking toward the exit.

Gu Yansheng stood there, stunned, looking at the person who had turned away from him.

All of a sudden, as if he had thought of something, he shouted, “Wait!”

Zuo Weiyi stopped, even Shi Yuting stopped in his tracks.

Annoyance was on his handsome face.

“This is my phone number, you can call me if anything happens.”

Looking at the card in his hands, Zuo Weiyi was about to say something but was quickly dragged away by Shi Yuting who was visibly unappeased.

“What did you mean by that?”

In the extravagant Bently, Shi Yuting asked the person next to him.

Zuo Weiyi was caught off guard by his sudden question. “By what?”

“That you choose to be choiceless.”

She hesitated and turned her head away. “Nothing.”

He could probably guess what she meant, but if she did not reveal the answer, he did not want to be too confident about it.

His gaze then landed on the name card she was holding, the more he looked at it the more annoyed he became. Eventually, he snatched the card from her hand and threw it out the window.

Zuo Weiyi was jolted. “What are you doing?!”

“If anything happens, I’m here. You don’t need Gu Yansheng!”

Zuo Weiyi glanced at his handsome profile, her expression turning a little sad.

She cast her eyes downward. “Then where were you when I was stabbed…”

His heart was stabbed as he heard her question. He was stunned.

He turned his head and gazed at her upset face.

It was obvious to him that she looked weaker after he had not seen her for a few days.

“Stay by my side, I won’t let anything or anyone harm you.”

Zuo Weiyi tilted her head up and was met by his passionate gaze, but she turned her head away and stared out the window.

It did not matter to her now, she understood her status clearly.

After half an hour, the car finally stopped at Shi’s garden.

As soon as Shi Nuannuan saw Zuo Weiyi, she quickly pulled her into a big and warm hug. “Weiyi, where were you?! I was so worried!”

“Ugh!”

She had accidentally pressed on the wound on Zuo Weiyi’s shoulder blade with her sudden hug. Weiyi frowned and groaned in pain.

Shi Yuting immediately caught on and pulled his younger sister away from Zuo Weiyi. “Where is your wound?”
