Chapter 124: Chapter 124: She Wants to Forget Everything
Tang Yuxiu’s eyes were bloodshot and fierce, "Fine, very fine! Gu Yan, you’d rather die than let me touch you!"
Gu Yan said nothing, only looked at him through tear-filled eyes, without any emotional fluctuation.
"Stop those disgusting tears! You disgust me!" Tang Yuxiu said coldly, then released her, swiftly getting up, giving her a look of disdain, turning around and striding away.
Tang Yuxiu kicked the single sofa violently out of irritation and anger, flipping it over with sheer force.
He walked straight to the door, not even bothering to change his shoes, opened the door and left.
With a "bang", the front door was slammed shut, making the entire villa seem to tremble a little.
Shortly after, the sound of a car engine starting could be heard from outside, gradually moving further away.
Gu Yan’s body was still trembling, her hands hanging at her side gradually clenched, she curled up slowly, finally breaking into loud sobs.
How did things become like this all of a sudden?
She thought they could continue to get along amicably, but why did everything change so suddenly.
She didn’t like it, not at all like the Tang Yuxiu from just now.
Inside the villa, Gu Yan’s sobbing echoed intermittently.
Tang Yuxiu drove swiftly along the highway, the night wind blowing in fiercely, yet it couldn’t ease his inner frustration at all.
Clearly just a disgusting woman, why did his heart suddenly ache hearing her talk about dying, softening to let her go.
He shouldn’t be like this, shouldn’t be swayed by anything, let alone soften for such a woman, breaking his limits time and time again.
Gu Yan, Gu Yan, Gu Yan!
The thought of this woman looking heartbroken and hopeless just now made it hard for him to calm down.
He suddenly slammed on the brakes, hit the steering wheel heavily, cursing, "Bastard!"
In the villa, Gu Yan didn’t know how long she cried, finally stopping her tears with difficulty, trembling as she put on her pants, with the buttons on her shirt broken, she could only wrap herself up and go upstairs.
She found her pajamas and entered the bathroom, her face expressionless, eyes unfocused, like a wandering soul.
She sneezed, took off her clothes without any emotions.
She lay in the bathtub filled with water, using body wash to clean her body, subconsciously wanting to wash away everything that happened tonight.
Not until she scrubbed her skin red did she stop, drained the bathtub and refilled it with new water, then lay quietly.
She thought, if she soaked a little longer, maybe she could completely get rid of the traces and smells on her body.
Wake up the next day, she could tell herself everything that happened tonight was just a dream, none of it was real.
She didn’t feel like this was deceiving herself at all.
She closed her eyes, the scenes from tonight constantly replaying in her mind, her brows furrowed, she simply got up and left the bathtub, her body dripping with water as she went back to the bedroom, rummaged through the bedside table for sleeping pills, poured a few out and threw them into her mouth, swallowing them bitterly.
Then she returned to the bathroom, continuing to lie in the bathtub.
She just needed to soak a bit longer, in this short time, she wanted to forget everything.
Closing her eyes, the images in her mind gradually blurred, her body slowly relaxing.
No sounds around, no Tang Yuxiu, only herself.
She felt very quiet and content.
In her own world, no one could hurt her, she could sleep without any care, feeling no burden nor fear.
