Back Then, I Adored You

Qin Zhi’ai leaned on the headboard, relaxed. She was looking at her phone, and it seemed like she didn’t even notice Gu Yusheng was next to her.

I’m standing so close to her. How could she not notice anything? Gu Yusheng thought to himself.

Gu Yusheng moved his eyes and touched the water glass. He leaned his body towards Qin Zhi’ai on purpose.

Qin Zhi’ai did not notice as Gu Yusheng moved closer to her, nor did she blink. She even slid a finger across her phone as Gu Yusheng leaned over.

I’m practically pressing myself on her. How could she have no reaction? Is she that into whatever’s on her phone? Gu Yusheng thought to himself.

Thinking this, Gu Yusheng moved over to see what was on Qin Zhi’ai’s phone. He asked, “What are you looking at?”

Qin Zhi’ai stared at her phone without moving at all. She responded casually, “I’m reading a novel.”

A novel? What novel could make her ignore me? Gu Yusheng thought to himself.

He had tried so hard to make himself look flirty and sexy. If he stopped everything at this moment, he would like he was a loser.

He had to think a way to shift her attention away from the novel and onto him. Only in this way would she notice the perfume he was wearing.

Gu Yusheng blinked at Qin Zhi’ai’s cell phone screen and suddenly remembered something. He said to Qin Zhi’ai in a casual tone, “I am going to take a shower.”

He stood up as he talked. As he turned around to go to the bathroom, his body leaned forward, and he pretended to trip and fell on Qin Zhi’ai.

To stop her from reading the novel, Gu Yusheng not only fell on her, but also knocked her phone onto the other side of the bed as he fell.

To make it look more real, he laid on her for a while before he looked up with a surprised look on his face. He looked like he was sorry. He said, “I’m sorry. I just tripped by accident.”

Even though Gu Yusheng had faked falling and was not putting all his weight on Liang Doukou, the pressure on her still made it hard for her to breath. Qin Zhi’ai had to adjust for a while before she could speak again.”It’s all right.”

She’s all right? Is that it? Doesn’t she have anything else to say? I put most of my weight on her, so she definitely should have smelled the perfume I’m wearing. Why is she acting so calm and showing no reaction? Did I miss a passing look on her face? Gu Yusheng contemplated to himself.

Gu Yusheng didn’t want to give up. He watched Qin Zhi’ai for a while and asked, “Did I hurt you?”

As he asked her this, he moved to touch her arm to check if she was hurt anywhere.

He didn’t even put any of his weight on my arm. Why is he holding my arm and checking it? Qin Zhi’ai thought to herself.

Qin Zhi’ai pulled her arm from his hand and stopped him. “I’m not hurt. Didn’t you want to take a shower? You can go take a shower.”

Gu Yusheng had no more excuses to be near Qin Zhi’ai. He was still anxious, but he faked a calm look on his face. He responded to her with an “okay” and slowly got off of her and climbed off of the bed. Before he went to the bathroom, Gu Yusheng tried once more to bend down and get a look at her face. He picked up her cell phone, which he had knocked to the other side of the bed earlier, and passed it to Qin Zhi’ai.
