At dinner time, Zuo Zhuliu and Yu Kai sat opposite each other, eating the dinner that was specially shipped from China. The table was full of fresh food such as abalone and lobster that only upper-class people could afford.
The table was full of delicious dishes, but Zuo Zhuliu couldn't eat them.
Under the enthusiastic gaze of the people opposite her, she had lost her appetite. Zuo Zhuliu was now eating without taking a bite. It was simply a waste of heavenly food. However, she couldn't be blamed for this. Who taught her to sit opposite a playboy young master who had been separated from her for many years? The moment he appeared, he used his work to kidnap her back here!
Moreover, he was the man who made her cold and heartless and melted her cold appearance! Because she had tasted the betrayal of the person she loved, her heart was completely sealed and she no longer believed in love. However, he appeared again many years later and destroyed her cold personality. Now, she couldn't figure out what her emotions were.
This kind of chaotic emotion was driving her crazy!
"Can you stop looking?" Zuo Zhuliu felt uneasy. She was afraid of the gaze that was staring at her. She was so afraid that she wanted to escape, but she couldn't. She could only beg him to look away and give her some space to breathe.
After all, if she were to continue being stared at by that burning gaze, she would probably collapse.
"What does it matter? It wasn't easy for you to come back here. If I don't see you, how can I be satisfied?”Yu Kai said the words that Zuo Zhuliu hated the most.
When Zuo Zhuliu heard the obvious teasing tone, a wave of anger rushed to his head. What did he take her for? A hotel lady? Even if she was, she would have the same thoughts as the Left Minister Butterfly and would ignore such a customer.
What a hateful man! Zuo Zhuliu couldn't take it anymore. She immediately got up from the chair and prepared to go back to her room to sleep without looking back! She had been busy from morning to afternoon. What she needed most now was a good rest.
Zuo Zhuliu couldn't be bothered with this old lover who only knew how to treat her impudently!
"Wait! What did I say wrong? I just want to see you!" Yu Kai caught up with her and pulled her before she left the restaurant.
Yu Kai was in a hurry and hurt Zuo Zhuliu's left arm. She cried out in pain.
"Let me go!" Zuo Zhuliu was in so much pain that he was about to cry. He saw that the man who was holding her still didn't let go and continued to hold her.
What the hell? What right did he have to say that he wanted to see her? He wasn't anyone to her, and she had the freedom to decide if she wanted to show him or not. She could leave whenever she wanted. What was wrong with that?
He was so unreasonable. No wonder she would be unhappy.
"What are you angry about?"
"I don't want to see you! Go away!" Zuo Zhuliu was so angry that he didn't care about maintaining his ladylike image and used his martial arts to break free from his control.
As the manager of a talent company, it was normal for her to know some self-defense skills. If she didn't show it, no one would know that a baby-faced woman like her actually had superpowers that others didn't.
"Wait a minute! I won't force you, but can you let me know why you're angry?”Yu Kai looked at Zuo Zhuliu in surprise. He was a little surprised and couldn't believe that she knew martial arts. She used to have nothing, but after so many years, it was as if she had changed into a different person. First, she had extraordinary abilities, and then she had an extremely cold temper. Then, she was extremely surprised that she knew martial arts!
All these years, without him, had she been learning all kinds of skills to live like this? He was very gratified, but there was also a slight pain in his heart. Which man could tolerate a woman who was stronger than him? Zuo Zhuliu's super power was something that ordinary men could never hope for. In general, she was several times stronger than men.
Unless she was a pretty boy, no ordinary man would be interested in her. Even if Zuo Zhuliu had a baby face, he would definitely make people retreat when he heard about her.
"Because I can't stand your attitude. Don't lump me together with other women who can stand your teasing!”
Before they started dating, she had heard that he was very good at flirting with women. Although he did not tease her often after they started dating, she knew that his personality was like that.
She was not someone he could toy with!
"Are you jealous?" Without any warning, Yu Kai said this without any evidence.
Zuo Zhuliu almost fell in front of him when he heard that. He formed an ugly shape and fell down. That was too ugly and embarrassing. How could she fall down?
For this, she couldn't help but rejoice at her self-control and the results of years of practice.
"Who's jealous of you? Don't be so smug over there." Zuo Zhuliu said coldly and turned his head away from him, lest he became more annoyed. She might lose control of her rationality in an instant and commit an unforgivable crime, which was not good!
This man had not seen her for a long time, and his skin was getting thicker and thicker.
Compared to many years ago, his " Dao " seemed to be getting higher and higher.
"Ah! I didn't!" he replied, sounding like a sissy.”Because her tone finally had the warmth of a human, his pestering was finally effective. It seemed that it would not be a problem to make her return to her past self.
Then…he would have to live a happy life like before!
"Boring." Zuo Zhuliu replied and then remembered that he had shown him the sketch. "By the way, what do you think of the sketch?”How forgetful. She had already given him the sketch at almost five o'clock in the afternoon. Logically speaking, for a businessman like him who knew nothing about painting, although it was difficult to understand, he should have finished reading it. However, she forgot to ask him which one he wanted.
If he didn't ask clearly, the following work might be delayed.
Because she didn't know which one he wanted.
"Well…I think you should come with me. You'll know what I want after seeing something.”Yu Kai pretended to be mysterious and said that this advertisement was actually made for Zuo Zhuliu, but he didn't want her to know first. Yu Kai wanted her to help him plan and let her know why he had left her for so long. He believed that she would know the reason why he was two-timing back then.
However, taking her to see things was only part of his plan. He did not tell her everything.
"What is it? Don't tell me we're going out. It's late and I don't feel like going out.”Zuo Zhuliu thought that he was going to take her out, so he told her that he didn't like to go out.
If he hadn't forgotten, he should have known that she didn't like to go out at night.
Because the last time she saw her father was at night.
"I know. We're not going outside, but to the guest room, the one opposite yours.”Yu Kai comforted her. He knew that she didn't like to go out. The reason was simple. She just didn't want to go out at night. He was used to it, so when they went out, they only went out in the morning. It never affected her lifestyle.
At that time, he respected her thoughts and personal freedom.
"Do you still remember that I don't like to go out at night?”Her voice suddenly rose a notch. He actually didn't forget her unique habit? Had his memory always been this good?
After so many years, he should have forgotten about her!
Zuo Zhuliu was stunned and did not move.
Seeing this, Yu Kai called out to her," Are you alright? Zuo…Zhuliu." Yu Kai was a little unfamiliar with calling her Zhuyu. In the past, he only called her Zhuyu, but now that they were only in a working relationship, he could not be so arrogant, so he could only restrain himself.
"It's nothing. I just didn't expect you to remember that I don't like to go out at night. Zuo Zhuliu thought that he had forgotten. After all, they had broken up for several years. It was only natural that he would forget! However…if he still remembered her, did that mean that he…had never forgotten her? Still had feelings for her?
But didn't he betray her first? Why…
"As long as it has something to do with you, I won't forget.”He did not forget. As long as it was about her, he did not even have the thought of forgetting. Because he had placed all his love on her, he had never forgotten her and always remembered her.
" Weirdo…" Zuo Zhuliu mumbled.
"No matter what you say, I will never forget it.”Yu Kai was determined.
When Yu Kai brought her to that room, he said to her," I hope you won't be shocked when you go in."”There were a lot of fun things in it, and there were also some things that represented her meaning, but she probably wouldn't notice it. "There is the feeling I want inside, and this feeling is exactly what I want to express.”This was exactly what he wanted.
He was 100% sure that this proposal that was made for her and was based on her creativity would be very popular! And she was very likely to see his sincerity.
"Is that so? Are you saying that there's nothing you want in those sketches?”She thought about the possible outcome. He wasn't satisfied with those sketches and wanted to bring her here to find the feeling he wanted.
If that was the case, she had no objections. After all, it was her duty to do a good job.
She had no complaints!
"If that's the case, what would you think?”He asked her.
"I will improve and find the feeling you want.”He was not bluffing, he was telling the truth. She had always been serious when she should be.
It was true for relationships, and it was true for everything.
That was why she could not forgive him for having a foot in two boats.
She loved him so much and used all her strength to love him. In the end, he was actually two-timing. He had clearly let her down!
"Have you always been so serious?”Yu Kai didn't know that Zuo Zhuliu was serious and persistent in everything except for love.
" If you think so." Zuo Zhuliu didn't want to say anything more.
"Hey-give me an answer!" he asked.
Zuo Zhuliu didn't bother with him and knocked him on the head. "Hurry up, I want to see the feeling you want.”She was dragging her feet and did not know how to be flexible.
"Yes, sir!" Yu Kai said with a smile. Zuo Zhuliu had knocked him once, which was rare. Did it mean that she was gradually accepting him and was no longer cold? Could Zuo Zhuliu become that lover again?
Suddenly, he was filled with confidence.
As long as she could recover, everything he had done would be worth it!
After entering the room, Zuo Zhuliu looked around at the walls and ceiling that were painted with the Milky Way and the sea of clouds. Suddenly, she felt her mood brighten up. For some reason, she seemed to have not seen such a beautiful scene for a long time.
Ever since they broke up…
Zuo Zhuliu was deep in thought. Was there something he wanted to express in this room? What was that? Other than the Milky Way and the sea of clouds, she could not see what he wanted to express.
She thought in confusion and kept looking around.
It was pitch black!
At this moment, she doubted Yu Kai's words. Did this room really have the feeling he wanted? Or was he just trying to trick her? Damn it, don't let her hear from his mouth that he was just trying to lie to her. This kind of joke was not funny at all!
She didn't want that!
" There's nothing at all. You brought me here..." Before she could finish speaking, she was pulled to the front by Yu Kai. She was unhappy because of the pull of his arm. Just as she was about to say something, she saw him beckoning her to look at a place with a golden dot.
The golden dot was very small, almost invisible. Fortunately, Zuo Zhuliu was confident in his 2.0 vision.
"Shh, look carefully and feel what the golden dots represent in this sea of clouds. Even the tiny golden dots had different meanings.”Yu Kai tried his best to explain to her the feeling he wanted.
A ray of light in the darkness…So that was it!
"I know, take me out!”Zuo Zhuliu was very, very sure of the feeling he wanted. This was the key to her drawing of the doll.
An inconspicuous doll, in the darkness, she tried her best to make herself shine and attract attention.
But…what was the point of this? No matter how he thought about it, it didn't match the theme. Moreover, it would take her some time to understand what he meant. It would make sense if the theme was a gold jewelry shop, but who knew what he was going to do? The meaning was unclear and difficult to understand!
Zuo Zhufeng was confused, so he asked,""Hey, what is your purpose?”
"This is an advertisement for the newcomers of our company. The purpose is, as you know, to let the audience know who they need to pay attention to in the vast sea of stars.”IG was all-rounded and involved in every industry. Although it was not the best, it had a certain position in the market.
"A celebrity? This isn't a bad idea." After a moment of silence, Zuo Zhuliu's lips curved. "Although I'm not interested in this kind of thing, I'm interested in trying anything that's challenging!”After Zuo Zhuliu heard his words, an unprecedented drive emerged. Although this kind of ridiculous behavior like a young man didn't suit her as an adult, this was the first time she was so motivated to do something well.
Perhaps it was because his words were very attractive! It made her want to go all out. Or perhaps…he wanted to help his ex-lover.
No! She must have done it for work! How could he do it for Yu Kai? Zuo Zhuliu shook his head, trying to get rid of that thought in his heart.
She was supposed to be heartless. Why did she feel that she had feelings for Yu Kai after meeting him for so many years? What was wrong with her?
"Zhuliu?" Yu Kai asked her doubtfully. In the dimly lit room, he could barely see her. Yu Kai saw that she had a lot on her mind and her brows were slightly furrowed. It forced him to caress her brows and give her a hug. Then, he would ask her softly what was wrong.
However, with his current status, he couldn't let him do that. That was in the past when they were still in love. Now that they had broken up for many years, they were still just friends. They didn't even have the right to touch each other's bodies. Could he do that?
It was obvious. Impossible! He could only move his lips to express his concern.
"Uh…what is it?" Zuo Zhuliu turned around and looked at Yu Kai who was hiding in the dark like her. Under the dim light, his leopard-like eyes seemed to be even more tempting…What was she thinking? Didn't the two of them break up? Why was he thinking about that?
Could it be that she still couldn't forget him? Could he not forget the feelings between the two of them?
"If there's nothing else, go out!" Yu Kai looked at her affectionately.
Zuo Zhuliu was about to swallow his saliva when he saw that. His heart beat faster for no reason. She felt that his gaze was about to see through her.
Heavens! She was letting her imagination run wild again. Who was going to wake her up?
"I, I…you go first, I want to stay and take a look.”Zuo Zhuliu was afraid that if he continued to stare at her, her heart would be restless again. She was afraid that she would not be able to resist falling for him again, clinging to him and not letting go, hoping that he could continue their relationship... It was not a drama series, what continued relationship?
However, she could not be blamed for having the fantasies of a young girl, because the gaze that looked at her was too persistent, instantly melting her heartless and ice-cold heart!
"Aren't you afraid of the dark? It's fine if I bring you out. Besides, won't you be afraid if I go out first?”Yu Kai didn't forget that Zuo Zhuliu used to be afraid of the dark when he was alone. He thought that the darkness would engulf her. She was terrified and afraid. At that time, when they were together, she didn't dare to leave his side in the dark.
Zuo Zhuliu exclaimed. He didn't even forget about this? However, the current Zuo Zhuliu was no longer the Zuo Zhuliu of the past. She was no longer afraid of the darkness! "None of your business! I'm not afraid anymore. Get out! I can go out alone." She was no longer that little woman who had just fallen in love. She no longer needed him!
She could be self-reliant. Hadn't she been like this all these years? Therefore, even if he was afraid of the dark…
She wouldn't be afraid!
"Is that so?" Yu Kai said lightly, then opened the door and walked out.
After Yu Kai left, Zuo Zhuliu's heart suddenly became fearful. As expected, she still couldn't forget the pain she had suffered when she was young! After living for so long, in the darkness where she was alone without everyone, she would still be afraid. She was afraid that the events of the past would repeat itself, the scene of being tricked into an empty house by a stranger and being whipped…
Zuo Zhuliu felt a chill down his spine as he thought of this. He didn't know where he was looking at, but he thought that the shadow was very similar to that person. Panic, fear, and disgust surged out of her heart. She couldn't take it anymore. She squatted on the ground and began to vomit. She vomited all her dinner.
"Don't come over!" She thought that the shadow was approaching her and could not help but shout.
This call made Yu Kai, who had been waiting outside the room out of worry, rush in. He looked at her pale face and her pale complexion, and subconsciously pulled her into his arms. He gave her the warmest embrace, so that her heart was no longer afraid.
Zuo Zhuliu was shocked at first. Was she afraid again? How many times was this? She did not expect that after experiencing so many things, she thought that she was no longer afraid, but she still could not overcome the darkness. After all, that past had hurt her heart, and it lingered like a nightmare.
She could feel the warmth of his body. Unconsciously, her eyes were filled with tears and she could not help but cry.
This time, she finally understood one thing.
She had never forgotten the gentleness and love he had given her. Even after he had cheated on her, she still could not forget that gentle touch…and she did not forget that she had lost control of her emotions because of him.
It was in the past, it was now, and it might be in the future.
The person who could not forget him, had those beautiful memories, and forced herself into such a relationship predicament was not him, but herself.#
