Chapter 757: Did it Feel Nice to Take Advantage of Other’s Misfortune? (1)

Xu Weilai stared at Zuo An in silence, waiting for him to state his condition.

Zuo An no longer needed to foreshadow or hide anything at this very moment. He stated his request directly, “Tomorrow is my father’s birthday party. I hope you can attend as my fiancée.”

He was fine for her to disagree with his marriage proposal, but wanted her to be his fiancée?

Xu Weilai sneered, “You consider this to be your sincerity?”

The compromise he made did not seem to be disadvantageous to him at all, even though he seemed to have made one.

Zuo An’s gaze at her was intense and penetrated her undisguised mockery. He kept silent for a moment before he explained, “Weilai, I can officially transfer the shares to you with the justification that you are my fiancée. In that case, my father would be less scrupulous against you as well.”

“You should know whether I’m telling you the truth. Since you know I won’t force you to do anything you are not willing to do.”

Well, he had always been courteous with her from the moment they met. He was indeed a gentleman.

Xu Weilai knew it was already a compromise for a schemer like him to take this step. His action would have touched her if today did not happen. But now, her heart felt nothing, not even a ripple.

Genuine sentiments could only be returned to a person with a genuine heart, not to someone who schemed every step of their way.

But… she would agree to Zuo An’s condition.

“If you can keep your promise, fine, I’ll agree.”

Zuo An finally let out a sigh of relief. He was having a nervous breakdown earlier before she agreed. If she could see nothing other than Gu Yu, there would be nothing else he could do to make her stay.

Time is the ultimate medicine to heal everything else.

“I’ll get Qiao Chu to contact the lawyer on the agreement preparation. I’ll sign them after the banquet tomorrow.”

Xu Weilai nodded.

She said nothing else and prepared to walk back upstair to Zuo An’s room with her luggage. She would have to stay back for another few days if she was going to attend the banquet.

Xu Weilai felt the weight in her hand lightened. Zuo An had her luggage in his hand, “Let me do it.”

He turned around and headed upstairs.

Xu Weilai stood where she was for a moment before she followed Zuo An up to his room.

Zuo An was still sensitive enough to know that Xu Weilai might not want to see him around after what happened earlier. He dropped the luggage back into his room and said, “I’ll get the maids to clean up a guest room. I’ll stay in the guest room tonight onwards. You should rest well.”

Xu Weilai nodded lightly.

Silence filled the room after Zuo An took his leave. Xu Weilai lowered her eyes and looked at her hands. The bloody scene from earlier kept replaying in her mind. Her swollen bloodshot eyes that subsided earlier were once again reddened.

Even though she cleansed her hand thoroughly earlier, she could still feel her hand being covered in crimson red blood. A frown appeared on her face and she rushed into the bathroom in a few gigantic steps.

She continued scrubbing her hand under the running water of the tap as if the imaginary bloodstain on her hands would eventually get washed off.

Her hands felt sore from the rubbings and scrubbing, and even wrinkles appeared on her hand from the long exposure to water. However, she kept scrubbing and rubbing her hand as if the motion was mechanically registered in her brain.

Until her phone rang…

Zuo An returned her phone before he left earlier.

The ringing from the phone startled her as she paused her movement. She turned off the tap and took out her phone from her pocket when she realised that the ringing actually came from her own phone.
