Back Then, I Adored You

She didn’t sleep well. Pieces of her memories with Gu Yusheng replayed in her dreams. She heard clicking sounds and subconsciously looked towards where the noise originated from. The door was being pushed open. At the same time, the dim yellow light in the hallway entered the room. Gu Yusheng, in his pajamas, walked into the room using the dim light.

When Gu Yusheng closed the door behind him, the bedroom was back to complete darkness. She heard some noises and then felt the bed next to her sink in.

It was a little cold under the blanket. After he was also under the blanket, it became warmer.

Qin Zhi’ai thought she was still dreaming, so she turned around and closed her eyes to fall back asleep.

She was half asleep for a long time until all the memories in her head were all gone. As she was falling asleep, she felt thousands of pounds of pressure on her chest. It was so heavy that she could barely breath. She frowned with her eyes closed. She moved without realizing and heard a familiar but low snoring.

The snoring felt too real. Qin Zhi’ai suddenly opened her eyes. With the help of the light from outside the window, she scanned the room. She was shocked that the scene of Gu Yusheng walking into the room hadn’t been a dream. It had actually happened.

Gu Yusheng laid on the bed next to her. He was trying to put his arm underneath her neck while he put the other hand on her breast to hold her intimately. It might have been because she was trying to struggle away from him, but he pushed her back to hold her closer to him.

Even though they were both in pajamas, Qin Zhi’ai could still clearly sense Gu Yusheng’s sexual desire. She couldn’t help trembling. Gu Yusheng kissed her neck and playfully bit her earlobe.

Qin Zhi’ai’s body froze on instinct, followed by trembling after his kisses.

Qin Zhi’ai’s heartbeat was out of control for a while before she realized what Gu Yusheng was doing to her.

His kisses were still as gentle as the night before, but Qin Zhi’ai didn’t feel the same way as last night. She hadn’t thought those kisses were sweet, nor was she engaged in them. Instead, she had felt sad and pathetic.

Last night, she had felt confused by his sudden sweetness and gentleness.

How could she forget that this sweetness and gentleness was for Liang Doukou, not for Qin Zhi’ai?

She was so silly that she replayed what happened that night many times and felt happy about it.

Qin Zhi’ai thought she had been nothing to him eight years ago. No, to be more specific, she had been nobody to him from the moment they first met. The beautiful memories she couldn’t forget for years were just an illusion she had made up.

She had been trying to avoid him that night, not thinking she could play Liang Doukou well.

She knew she couldn’t let “Qin Zhi’ai” ruin her job impersonating Liang Doukou. She had taken Liang Doukou’s money, so she needed to do her job as Liang Doukou had told her.

However, when Gu Yusheng laid her flat on the bed and kissed her forehead, she couldn’t help turning her head sideways to dodge his lips.
