Chapter 304: 304 The Night Without You is Hard to Fall Asleep (3)_1
Even now, he can’t help but wonder, did she really like those gifts?
"Mr. Gu! I think I understand why you insist on compensating , you feel guilty towards , don’t you?"
"..."
Gu Liancheng fell silent.
Ever since he found out she moved out without a word, he was angry at first, but mostly reflective afterwards.
What she said was right. He wanted to compensate her sowhat, to make her life better, so that he could find peace within himself.
"In fact, if you think like this, it’s fine. We didn’t really get married for love, we were together for our own benefits. The marriage certificate is like a contract we signed between us. Now that we have mutually terminated it, no one owes anyone anything."
Hmm...
On hearing this, Su Bai and Allen seed to realize that she was right!
"Also, I still think that you have helped
a lot, really! Like that initial sum of money, it was very important to !"
The money...
He initially thought it was a lot, but Su Bai later told him that she only swiped a few tens of thousands from the card and never used it again.
He then realized, how desperate she must have been to beg for money from a stranger?
The sum she took was insignificant to him, hence he didn’t pay attention to what she did with it.
Yes, indeed, Eleven thought, that money, which was dispensable to him, was her lifeline. With barely a penny to her na, she was truly at a loss on who to turn to except Gu Liancheng.
There was another reason for choosing him - she could accept the money without any guilt, even if she didn’t have to repay him.
"Alright, I’ve said what I had to say," Eleven sighed in relief, rose, and extended her hand towards him, "I don’t know if Allen has passed you the ssage, so, I’ll repeat it – it was a pleasure working with you, Mr. Gu."
Four years, and to her, was it just about work?
That’s how they started to avoid any misunderstanding. But now, it seems like he was the only one overthinking, while she appeared fine.
Gu Liancheng also stood up and formally shook hands with her, narrowing his eyes.
"Goodbye Mr. Gu, we are from two different worlds, we probably won’t et again," she maintained her smile, "Goodbye Allen, goodbye Big White."
"Goo... Goodbye..." Su Bai stamred.
Watching Eleven leave the coffee shop, Su Bai sighed, saying, "Ah... people do grow affectionate with ti! Such a good girl..." He was reluctant to let go, didn’t Mr. Gu feel the sa?
Eleven had gone, and Gu Liancheng was still sitting in place, not uttering a word, lost in thoughts.
"Mr. Gu, Miss Fang is still outside, seems like she’s waiting for a cab, shall we drop her?" Su Bai suggested.
They were sitting by the window and could see outside. Eleven was standing by the roadside.
"No need."
His eyes fell on the check and the property deed. He crooked a faint smile, it was unclear who he was laughing at.
Anyway, she had Ye Fei as a friend, no matter how difficult life was, it wouldn’t be as helpless as before. There was no need for him to worry.
He could protect her montarily, but not for a lifeti.
...
A taxi arrived shortly and Eleven got in.
She looked back, the outside of the coffee shop was deserted with no one in sight.
Seemingly understanding her thoughts, the driver said, "Miss, shall I drive slower to let your boyfriend catch up?"
