Chapter 387 Questioning
When she found Xu Rou, Xu Rou was with Zhou Zeran.
The moment Xu Rou saw Liang Jiayi, a sense of unease welled up inside her, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
She had intended to speak to Liang Jiayi politely, but unexpectedly—
Liang Jiayi rushed up to Xu Rou, pointed at her nose, and started cursing.
"Xu Rou, you liar! You said you could handle Gu Tingyu, but look at you now."
I've been blacklisted, and you haven't done anything! You lied to me!
Liang Jiayi's voice was as fierce as a storm, her face full of anger and disappointment.
Xu Rou was startled by Liang Jiayi's scolding and her face turned pale.
She quickly denied having any connection with Liang Jiayi: "I don't know what you're talking about! I have absolutely nothing to do with you!"
Just then, Zhou Zeran appeared.
His eyes revealed a firmness and a protective instinct as he quickly walked to Xu Rou's side and shielded her behind him.
"Don't bully Xu Rou! If you have a problem, come at me!" Zhou Zeran warned Liang Jiayi with icy eyes.
Seeing Zhou Zeran protecting Xu Rou, Liang Jiayi felt even angrier.
She knew she had been deceived and was unwilling to be manipulated like this.
"Xu Rou, you wicked woman! You tricked me into begging Gu Tingyu, and now you've lied to Zhou Zeran! You'll die a horrible death!"
Liang Jiayi cursed without thinking, her eyes flashing with madness.
Zhou Zeran felt very uncomfortable when he heard that Xu Rou had gone to Gu Tingyu to plead for her.
However, Zhou Zeran still forcefully drove Liang Jiayi away: "If you don't leave, I'll make a move on you."
Liang Jiayi glared fiercely at Xu Rou and stormed off.
Zhou Zeran looked at Xu Rou, his voice carrying a hint of questioning.
"You really went to Gu Tingyu to plead for him? What exactly is your relationship with him?"
Xu Rou quickly explained, "Zeran, don't misunderstand! I have nothing to do with Gu Tingyu! I only like you! I went to him to plead for Liang Jiayi, I didn't expect it to turn out like this."
Xu Rou gripped Zhou Zeran's arm tightly, as if seeking his trust and forgiveness.
Zhou Zeran looked at Xu Rou with a mixture of belief and doubt, his heart filled with contradictions and struggles.
He didn't know whether he should believe Xu Rou's words, but he couldn't resist Xu Rou's gentleness and methods.
In the end, Zhou Zeran was still manipulated by Xu Rou's methods.
He sighed and gently pulled Xu Rou into his arms.
"Okay, I believe you. But don't do this again."
Xu Rou's eyes were unreadable.
Xu Rou thought she had successfully gotten away with it, but little did she know that Zhou Zeran had already secretly sent people to investigate the matter.
She sat in her room, her eyes occasionally drifting to the computer screen, still feeling uneasy about the trending topics.
Seeing the news of Gu Tingyu's injury and Li Yan's stunning beauty, which was praised by netizens, a complex emotion welled up in my heart.
"If I hadn't left Gu Tingyan, would my life have been different?"
Xu Rou thought to herself, a hint of regret and fantasy in her eyes.
Her fingers swiped lightly across the screen, as if touching the beautiful future that might have once belonged to her.
Meanwhile, Shen Nianxu had already prepared everything. She stood in the airport hall, dragging her suitcase, her eyes filled with anticipation and disappointment.
She had been waiting for Gu Tingyu, clinging to a sliver of hope that he would come to see her off.
However, as time passed, Gu Tingyu still did not arrive.
"Nianxu, you should go now," the agent urged.
Shen Nianxu nodded, her heart filled with disappointment.
