Chapter 10：She Was Drunk I

Since she did not refute, Gu Nantian looked at her disappointedly, "I didn't expect you to be someone who doesn't keep their word."

Xu Zhiyin didn't know why she felt guilty. "I really forgot."

Initially, she wanted to go home to bring her mother away but had never thought such annoying things would happen.

Gu Nantian saw her guilty look and laughed. "Since you know your mistake, I'll forgive you. Get in the car!"

Xu Zhiyin stood there and did not move. She was exhausted and wished to find a place to take a proper rest.

"Can I start work tomorrow? I'm in a bad mood today and can't do anything for you."

If she could not calm down to work, she thought she had no need to go to Gu Nantian's house.

"You don't have to work today." Gu Nantian said with his magnetic and gentle voice. He grabbed hold of Xu Zhiyin's hand and tugged her up the car.

Oh dear!

How could he do this?

This was her work place. What if someone she knew saw them?

"Let me go." Xu Zhiyin wanted to struggle away from his grip, afraid that someone might misunderstand her relationship with Gu Nantian.

Gu Nantian's arms were like metal arms. His grip was tight and she couldn't move. "Let's talk in the car."

That was how Xu Zhiyin was dragged up the car.

For the sake of not causing more trouble, she didn't do anything. It'd be best they leave this place quickly!

In the restaurant, Gu Nantian looked at Xu Zhiyin whom he brought here and was now silent. He placed a piece of cut goose liver on her plate. "Try this. Is it delicious?"

Xu Zhiyin shoved the food into her mouth mechanically and nodded. "Yes."

Actually, she had no appetite but due to her good nature, she didn't want to reject Gu Nantian's good intention.

Gu Nantian said, "If you like it, have more."

"No, thank you. You have more!" Xu Zhiyin looked at this extremely handsome man. At her saddest moment, this man was accompanying her for dinner. She had not expected it and was very grateful, "You don't have to treat me so well. I'm only an unimportant person working for you. You don't have to spend so much time and effort on me."

Gu Nantian assured, "You are special in my heart."

"You know very well that the person you like is not me. Before you lost your memory, we didn't even know one another." Xu Zhiyin sighed, "Mr. Gu, Miss Gu is the love of your life. You've mistaken me for her."

"Can you not mention her in front of me?" Gu Nantian frowned. "I hate that woman."

Xu Zhiyin thought it was strange. By right, if a person truly loved someone, even if he had lost his memory, he wouldn't hate that person so much!

However, since Gu Nantian didn't want her to be mentioned, it was not necessary for her to force him. Hence, she compromised, "Alright, I won't mention her anymore."

She lowered her head and continued to space out. The more she thought of what happened today, the worse she felt about it.

Gu Nantian saw her ignoring him and was unhappy. He stretched out his hand and tilted her chin. "Woman, when you are with me, don't think of other unrelated people."

Xu Zhiyin replied, "But to me, you are that unrelated person!"

Gu Nantian was annoyed, "You are my wife. How can you say I'm an unrelated person?"

"Mr. Gu, I'm really not your wife. Please don't make fun of me"

"Now you're not but you'll be my wife in future. I'll marry you!"

What he said sounded so real that Xu Zhiyin almost believed him.

However, even if she used her toes to think, it was something impossible.

She stated once again, "I told you I'm a married woman."

"You have divorced!"

"Yes, but my heart still belongs to my husband." To her, the man she loved most was still Ji Liunian. Why would she do so much in the hospital this entire afternoon if she didn't love him?

Gu Nantian's eyebrows twisted, "Do you still want to love a man who made you sad and miserable?"

Gu Nantian's words hit Xu Zhiyin's most sorrowful spot!

That's right!

Why does she still love the man who made her sad and miserable?

She lowered her head and dared not look at Gu Nantian. This man was like a mirror, magnifying her stupidity all the time, forcing her to look steadily at the truth.

She thought of the past. Ji Liunian had always been the sun shining on her world. She chokingly answered, "I've loved him for many years and have forgotten how to forget him."

When love becomes a deep habit, forgetting it becomes the hardest thing on earth.

Xu Zhiyin was afraid to be laughed at by Gu Nantian. She thought he would definitely laugh at her mercilessly as she was ridiculous right now. However, Gu Nantian merely sat by the side accompanying her silently without uttering a single word to make her feel bad.

Xu Zhiyin darted him a glance. His eyes were very clear and there were no secrets in them. When she saw him, her tears flowed down uncontrollably.

"I'm sorry, I'm making a fool of myself."

It was unusual for her to say these in front of a stranger.

However, she was really in pain.

Gu Nantian asked, "Why did the two of you divorce?"

"I'm not good enough, that's why he doesn't love me. No matter what I do, he still loves someone else." She had never been so helpless before.

Even if a husband and wife do not love one another, after a few years of living together, there should be some love between them, shouldn't there?

However, she and Ji Liunian…

Ji Liunian was the one who had detached himself from this relationship while she was stupidly bogged down deeper and deeper.

"No." Gu Nantian said firmly, "You're good. He didn't know how to cherish you. One day, he'll regret it."

"You don't know me!" Xu Zhiyin laughed bitterly. It was rare for someone to praise her. Even if it was just a console, she felt it, "I'm narrow-minded, petty, and arrogant. I can't get the men I like and I don't accept the truth that people say."

That was how Chu Xia described her.

She thought about it seriously and felt what Chu Xia said was true. If she were to like an ordinary man, things would not be so complicated.

"No, you're very good." Gu Nantian said, "You're the prettiest and gentlest woman I've ever seen."

"That's because you have lost your memory. You have not seen any women."

In the hospital, the first person who came into his vision when he woke up was her and that caused the illusion.

If he were the Gu Nantian who hadn't lost his memory, he wouldn't be interested in an ordinary woman who liked to be jealous and vain like her and would not sit here to eat and chat with her.

Gu Nantian held her hand and with his clear eyes, looked at her. "Let's try and see if I treat you well, alright?"

His eyes were like the black hole which could pull one in.

That moment, Xu Zhiyin recalled what Chu Xia said, if you could find a man as good as Ji Liunian…

Gu Nantian's family background was not inferior to that of Ji Liunian!

Xu Zhiyin retracted her hand as if she had been burned. God, she had almost thought this was real. "I said I have been married before."

She hated herself. Why was she thinking of this now?
