Chapter 385: Quite Tragic
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Her eyes were beautiful, clear and moist, yet they held an unmistakable hint of sarcasm. There was no joy, no excitement, not even a hint of thrill. It was as if she genuinely didn’t want to interact with him. Why was that?
He had noticed that Gu Zi was different from the Gu Zi he used to know. Gong Zhan found it hard to accept. She was not like before. She no longer prioritized him in everything. In her heart now, Gong Zhan was merely a stranger.
The Gu Zi who used to laugh for him, feel sad for him, lose herself for him, and even make a scene for him, seemed to be gone forever. In that moment, Gong Zhan felt as if he had lost something very important, leaving a gaping hole in his heart.
But it was just a fleeting moment. Gong Zhan quickly recovered, telling himself that it was nothing, that he had never really liked Gu Zi.
He steered the conversation back to Lin Miao’s matter, calmly asking, “What conditions do you need to forgive Lin Miao, to keep her out of jail?”
Uncle Yang came over and greeted Gu Zi. Seeing Uncle Yang there, Gu Zits expression softened a bit. She had a good impression of Uncle Yang and wouldn’t ignore him just because she was indifferent to Gong Zhan.
However, she was truly speechless with Gong Zhan, so even with Uncle Yang present, her attitude towards Gong Zhan didn’t improve.
Without any hesitation, Gu Zi said, “I will not forgive Lin Miao, nor do I want to get involved in any of her affairs. As far as I’m concerned, the theft case has been closed. So, you should leave.”
Gu Zi felt that the original host’s love was unworthy. Seeing Gong Zhan’s attitude, she knew that this man was actually quite cold-blooded.
The woman he liked was always a set of characteristics and persona, not a specific person. Once the woman lost the traits he liked, he would immediately look for those traits in other women, falling for someone else. He could never like just one person.
For a moment, Gong Zhan was at a loss for words. He was stunned, and after a long pause, he said with furrowed brows, “Gu Zi, don’t push your luck! Do you think it’s meaningful to cling to this matter? It only makes you more annoying.
Haven’t the Gu family and Lin Miao agreed to repay the three thousand yuan? What else are you dissatisfied with?”
Uncle Yang was quite surprised to see the two of them arguing. He had previously noticed that Miss Gu didn’t seem to have any special feelings for the young master, but he had no idea that she was now bold enough to argue with him. What was he to do?
The young master, usually so good at maintaining his aloof demeanor, was now arguing without regard for his dignity…
Gu Zi was not to be outdone. She retorted, “1 find it very meaningful. Making criminals serve their sentences according to the law is a great service to the country and the people. I’m accumulating merit. I advise you not to meddle.
“Furthermore, I don’t care if you like me or not. I am who I am. I won’t change for you. That would make me seem low-class. I don’t want that..”
