Back Then, I Adored You

The housekeeper noticed his bad mood and knew she should just obey, so she immediately said "yes" as soon as he heard his order and swiftly ran upstairs.

The housekeeper knocked on the door a few times, but no one answered. She then pushed the door open and looked inside. Qin Zhi'ai was lying on the bed with her back to the door, sleeping soundly. The housekeeper called her, but she still had no reaction, so the housekeeper closed the door quietly and went back downstairs.

At this moment, Gu Yusheng was sitting on the sofa gracefully, his feet propped up, reading the newspaper in his hands. Hearing the housekeeper walk down the stairs, he tilted his head to look at her.

The housekeeper stood a certain distance away from Gu Yusheng and answered truthfully, "Miss Liang is sleeping. I called her, but she didn't wake up."

Gu Yusheng's eyebrows furrowed even more, and his tone became a bit angrier. "Didn't wake up? Then keep calling her until she wakes up! Not having any food will make her feel weak later."

"Yes, Mr. Gu, I'll go and wake Miss Liang up now." The housekeeper was scared that Gu Yusheng would lose his temper, so she immediately turned around and went upstairs again.

Since it was quiet in the villa in the evening, when the housekeeper pushed the door open, Gu Yusheng heard the sound, which distracted him and made it impossible not to notice the sounds upstairs.

The door of the main bedroom hadn't been closed, so the housekeeper's voice could be clearly heard from downstairs. "Miss? Wake up, please."

After quite a while, Gu Yusheng vaguely heard Qin Zhi'ai's voice saying, "What's the matter?"

"Miss, can you sleep after eating something, please?"

"I'm not hungry."

"But Mr.Gu said it wouldn't be good for your health if you didn't eat regularly..."

After the housekeeper persuaded her for a long time, the unclear voice finally came from upstairs again, "I don't want to eat."

The housekeeper seemed to be in a dilemma. Her voice belied a sense of coaxing. "Miss, please go downstairs and eat something. Even if you feel uncomfortable, you shouldn't let your stomach suffer..."

This time, Qin Zhi'ai remained silent for longer.

She seemed to be directly ignoring the housekeeper. Gu Yusheng only heard the housekeeper constantly calling, "Miss."

Such a piece of crap! Can't even make her come down and eat! Gu Yusheng threw the newspaper onto the coffee table violently, then stood up and walked upstairs.

When he got to the door of the bedroom, he saw the housekeeper kneeling by the bed and coaxing Qin Zhi'ai gently, but Qin Zhi'ai just ignored her with her eyes closed.

Gu Yusheng didn't enter the room, stopping at the door.

The housekeeper sensed that someone else had come, so she raised her head and said, "Mr. Gu."

Hearing that, the eyebrows of the woman in the bed trembled obviously, then she buried her head in the pillow and left Gu Yusheng with the sight of her long black hair.

Upon seeing Qin Zhi'ai's reaction, the housekeeper was so scared that her face became ashen.

Is Miss Liang in a fight with Mr. Gu? How could she win?

The moment that the housekeeper thought Gu Yusheng would explode in rage, the man standing by the door opened his mouth and said in an unexpectedly calm tone, "Get up and eat something, even if you're not hungry! Even if you just have a bit, it's better than having nothing at all!"

It seemed that Qin Zhi'ai hadn't heard Gu Yusheng, for she still had no reaction.

The housekeeper saw the building anger on Gu Yusheng's face and reached out and pushed Qin Zhi'ai gently, "Miss, please get up and eat!"
