Back Then, I Adored You

After he had been beaten by his father for years, he gradually got used to it and felt that domestic violence was simply not a big deal.

Even… Even when he saw his father, he would feel wrong if he hadn't received a sound beating.

To be honest, in his impression, since he was seven years old, a beating for him had been the only way that his father communicated with him. As for his mother, the only memory he had of her was that she cried everyday.

From then on, a warm family became less like a family at all.

From that time, he felt that family wasn't as important as people claimed.

As for home, it wasn't indispensable for him, for it was just a place where he could go and sleep at night.

His parents had married each other to join their families, so they didn't get a divorce, although they had no feelings for each other.

Because the interests of the two families intertwined, they hadn't gotten to make decisions for their own sakes.

He thought if marriage was just a contract like that, he would rather not be married.

Anyway, love would change sooner or later. People could still live without love, so why bother loving simply to reach a miserable end.

Two years ago, the tragic marriage of his parents had finally come to an end.

His father had killed his mother with a gun and committed suicide.

He had been serving in the army at the time. After receiving the news, he rushed back to Beijing overnight, but only saw two dead bodies.

From that moment, he became more determined to never love anyone or get married in the future.

Because of the death of his parents, he had to give up the dream that he'd had since he was little and return home to take over the Gu Company.

He really thought life would be easy and enjoyable if he lived alone, but Liang Doukou had set her sights on him!

The only reason that he had promised his grandfather he would let Liang Doukou move into his villa was that his grandfather had forced him to.

Of course, his grandfather had also forced him to get a marriage license, but he never wanted to get married, so it was impossible to convince him.

Of course, Liang Doukou wouldn't give up; she went to the Gu Mansion every so often and complained to his grandfather. Then his enjoyable life was brutally disturbed by his grandfather every couple of days.

But at that time, he was able to cope with it easily.

When Liang Doukou wanted to live in his villa, he let her and found somewhere to live by himself… When she wanted to get a marriage license, he bought a fake one through a connection… Peace and quiet were the only things he wanted in his life.

On the day she had moved into his villa, she had gone to the Gu Mansion, and he had also happened to be there for some reason.

He was leaving the mansion while she walked in, so they met each other at the door.

To tell the truth, since they had met each other, he had never seen Liang Doukou's face closely, but that day, he took a glance at her when he passed by.

She was staring at him right in the face with her beautiful eyes, although her eyes were covered in makeup.

Gu Yusheng walked out of the door after that glance. Before he got into his car, he took another glance at the living room through the window and saw her, still staring at him through the bright glass.
