Listening to the man in the passenger seat talking with Ling Tianyou, Gu Ningyue already started figuring out how to face Ling Tianyou after returning.
She had once promised that upon returning, she would tell Ling Tianyou everything. But, would he believe her?
Would he think that she was just ssing with him and therefore made up such an unscientific tale to tell him?
Perhaps, he would beco even more furious.
"Young Madam, President Ling wants to talk to you."
The person in front handed over the phone, Gu Ningyue hesitated for two seconds, then took the phone: "Hello?"
As soon as she spoke, she realized her voice was a bit hoarse and her throat was sowhat tight.
What’s going on with her? Is she nervous?
"You’re back?" Ling Tianyou’s voice was calm, seemingly not showing any sign of anger.
But the calr he was, the more uneasy Gu Ningyue felt: "Yes, I’m back."
The two seed unsure about what to say, asking was aningless, answering was equally aningless.
After Gu Ningyue responded, Ling Tianyou didn’t continue speaking, and the atmosphere beca silent in an instant.
Besides silence, there was also so unspeakable awkwardness.
After a while, Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but speak first, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first? We’ll talk after I return?"
Although she asked, Gu Ningyue already had the answer in her heart.
Sure enough, Ling Tianyou nodded: "Alright, we’ll talk when you get back! Don’t forget what you promised ."
"Mm, I won’t forget."
Hanging up the phone, Gu Ningyue returned the phone to its owner.
The car drove all the way to the villa that Ling Tianyou bought for her. As the car door opened, Gu Ningyue took a deep breath looking at the scenery in front of her.
What’s ant to co finally ca.
et the soldier with a general, the water with soil; at worst, she would sever all ties with Ling Tianyou, which is rely the worst outco!
"Young Madam, you’re back."
Aunt Zhang saw Gu Ningyue return and imdiately greeted her cheerfully.
Gu Ningyue nodded: "Is Ling Tianyou at ho?"
Aunt Zhang nodded, her face showing so unspeakable fear: "Yes, President Ling didn’t go to the company today, he’s been at ho."
As for why, everyone was well-aware.
Gu Ningyue sighed, stepping inside.
The living room was empty, either Ling Tianyou was in the study or in the bedroom.
She handed her luggage to the servant to be taken to her room and stood hesitantly at Ling Tianyou’s door for a long ti, raising her hand then placing it down again, sohow lacking the courage to knock.
"Forget it..."
Ultimately, Gu Ningyue lacked the courage, deciding to head back to her room to take a shower first.
Just as she took two steps, suddenly the door behind her opened without warning: "Where are you going?"
Gu Ningyue’s body stiffened, turning her head to look at Ling Tianyou standing at the door.
He was wearing a loose T-shirt, his handso face showing no expression, yet still beautiful like jade.
"I want to go back and take a shower."
Ling Tianyou leaned against the door fra, "Go ahead! Co to the bedroom to find later, I have sothing to tell you."
Gu Ningyue said, "It’s okay to talk now. I’ll shower afterward."
Ling Tianyou smiled faintly: "No need, I don’t mind waiting a bit longer."
He had already been waiting for several days, a few more minutes didn’t bother him.
Gu Ningyue nodded, no longer insisting: "Alright, I’ll head over after."
Watching Gu Ningyue’s back, Ling Tianyou paused for two seconds at the door then turned to his room.
But this ti, Ling Tianyou didn’t close the door.
About an hour later, Gu Ningyue changed into a clean white T-shirt and casual pants, arriving at Ling Tianyou’s room, "Can I co in?"
Ling Tianyou was busy at the desk with sothing, he nodded without looking up and said: "Co in! Rember to close the door."
Gu Ningyue was a bit surprised: "Why close the door in broad daylight?"
At this mont, Ling Tianyou finally raised his head, "Are you afraid I’ll do sothing to you? You’re overthinking it, I don’t like forcing others."
Gu Ningyue’s face flushed, "No, I didn’t an it like that."
Saying this, Gu Ningyue closed the door casually.
"Sit down!"
After organizing the items on the table, Ling Tianyou casually grabbed a chair and placed it not far from him.
Once seated, Gu Ningyue suddenly felt like she was undergoing trial: "Uh... there’s no need to be this serious, is there?"
Ling Tianyou raised an eyebrow: "Serious? I don’t feel so. Is it because you have secrets in your heart?"
Gu Ningyue awkwardly chuckled: "Whatever you say. What were you just saying, what did you want to talk about?"
"Tianze has been sent to rehab, the house has gotten quite empty, my parents hope you’ll return to the ancestral house to live with us. anwhile, we’ll hold the engagent ceremony that hadn’t been conducted."
Of course, the latter part is his personal wish.
Gu Ningyue was shocked, nearly failing to control her expression: "Go back and live with your parents? You agreed?"
Ling Chengyang obviously doesn’t like her! Occasionally going back feels like entering a coliseum, now she has to live there?
Just picturing it made Gu Ningyue’s scalp go numb, the previous tension was entirely overshadowed.
"Not yet, do I look like soone who makes unilateral decisions?" Ling Tianyou said nonchalantly: "You don’t want to go back?"
Gu Ningyue nodded, "Thanks for asking , but with your parents, I really can’t handle it."
Mrs. Ling is okay, Ling Chengyang on the other hand is just too much!
The longer we stay together, the more conflicts will accumulate.
The best thod is staying farther apart, which works for everyone.
"Alright, then be careful living alone here." Ling Tianyou said to Gu Ningyue.
Upon hearing this, Gu Ningyue was stunned: "You’re going back to live at the family ho?"
Ling Tianyou nodded: "My parents are getting old, and who knows when Tianze will be back. They need comfort."
Gu Ningyue couldn’t believe it: "Really? You’re really going back?"
Is he teasing her or testing her?
"Do I look like I’m joking?" Ling Tianyou responded slowly.
Gu Ningyue was silent for a few seconds; although she had hoped for Ling Tianyou to leave and stop pestering her.
Now that it’s actually happening, with Ling Tianyou moving back to live at ho, inexplicable discomfort filled Gu Ningyue’s heart.
Sotis, people are really strange creatures.
"Well... it’s good then." Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou and said, "But about the engagent ceremony, let’s reconsider that."
Ling Tianyou nodded: "Alright, first tell why you left alone to go to U Country. Gu Ningyue, do you know what happened last ti soone played like this?"
Gu Ningyue daring to do so definitely caught him off guard.
