Chapter 544: The Figure Standing at the Window
Gu Yansheng let out a sigh and rested his chin on his hands as if he was thinking about something.
…
When she returned to the ancient mansion, the sky had already turned dark.
By this time, Nuannuan should have already gone to the hospital.
As she entered the house, there was no sign of Shi Le or anyone else in the living room besides the servants. He should be in the study on the second floor.
“Young Madam.” The servant greeted her when she saw her.
Zuo Weiyi did not say anything but walked straight to the second floor.
She pushed open the bedroom door. It was pitch black inside.
She switched on the lights with familiarity. When she looked up, she saw a tall figure standing by the window.
She was stunned and stood frozen in place.
Shi Yuting was looking at the night sky outside for a while before slowly turning around. His pair of black jade eyes were fixed on the person standing by the door.
Zuo Weiyi did not expect him to come back because he didn’t for almost half a month.
For a very, very long time, neither of them spoke.
Shi Yuting just stared at her with a cold expression, while Zuo Weiyi lowered her eyes.
When she was taken away by Gu Yansheng, he thought that she would never come back. The fear of not knowing what to do made him panic. He came back, curious as to whether she would come back that night or not.
The moment the lights turned on, his panicked heart finally calmed down.
The atmosphere in the room was eerily quiet. In the end, Zuo Weiyi took the first step and walked to the bed, placing the key on the bedside cabinet.
She then walked to the cloakroom and took out some clothes from the cabinet.
Shi Yuting heart panicked again when he saw her take her clothes. In the end, he couldn’t stop himself from asking, “What are you doing?”
Zuo Weiyi searched for her clothes calmly. She answered indifferently, “Taking a shower. ”
After picking out the clothes she would change into, she turned around and walked into the bathroom.
Shi Yuting’s heart suddenly heaved a sigh of relief.
For a moment just now, he thought that she was… packing up her things and preparing to leave.
Shi Yuting didn’t leave as he watched her walk into the bathroom and shut the door. Instead, he sat down on the sofa.
In the bathroom, Zuo Weiyi was sitting in the bathtub, staring at the ceiling. Her gaze was a little unfocused, and the image of the woman who had appeared beside him in the morning still flashed in her mind.
He had not returned in the past few days. Could it be that he had been with that woman?
Was that really the case..?
Zuo Weiyi felt a sharp pain in her heart. She closed her eyes and submerged her entire head into the water, as if trying to wash away some of the images that lingered in her mind.
However, she was not a good swimmer to begin with. She had only put her head under for a few seconds before she choked on a few mouthfuls of water!
“Cough, cough, cough…” she sat up suddenly and could not stop herself from coughing!
On the other side of the door, Shi Yuting got up from the sofa instinctively when he heard the noise coming from the bathroom. He rushed to the bathroom door like a gust of wind and pushed it open without thinking and entered.
At that moment, Zuo Weiyi’s face was flushed red and tears were coming out of her eyes.
“What are you doing?!” He walked over and roared. The anxiety in his long and narrow eyes was clear.
Seeing that her face and head were full of water, she must have submerged her head underwater. But she was not a good swimmer to begin with. Did she want to die?
Zuo Weiyi was shocked by his sudden outburst and did not understand what he was angry about.
