Back Then, I Adored You
Chapter 364: If You Deny, I Will Trust You (4)

Gu Yusheng closed his eyes, stretched his lips, and looked calm.

Qin Zhi’ai stared at the window sluggishly.

Neither of them were sleepy, and they were both immersed in their own thoughts. No one made any noise, nor did they move.

The atmosphere in the whole house was like a photo taken by a camera, fixed and stagnant.

After a long time, Qin Zhi’ai, who was looking outside of the window, fluttered her eyelashes, and the tears in her eyes fell silently on the pillow. She licked her lips and buried her face in the bedding, slowly closing her eyes.

The sunlight outside the window spread all over the ground, becoming more and more brilliant.

Qin Zhi’ai, who had buried herself in the quilt, didn’t remove herself until Gu Yusheng’s breaths became even and long. She was afraid of waking him up, so she turned her head gently to look at Gu Yusheng.

The man still had his back turned to her. He seemed to be very calm, like he was falling asleep.

Qin Zhi’ai then quietly opened the quilt and got out of bed. She casually took a piece of her clothing from the ground and wrapped it on her body, then went to the closet.

After changing into a new nightdress, Qin Zhi’ai went to have a look at Gu Yusheng’s face.

The look on his face was very calm, and it seemed that he was sleeping deeply.

Qin Zhi’ai felt relieved. In the fear that her steps would make noise, she walked directly on the floor with bare feet to the vanity. She opened the bag placed on it, took out the medicine bottle inside it, and then walked softly to the door and left.

…

After the door was closed, Gu Yusheng, who was laying in the bed and breathing evenly, opened his eyes.

There was a mess in his head, and he had never fallen asleep.

He didn’t see her behind him, and she didn’t make any movements. He thought she had also fallen asleep, but to his surprise, she had climbed out of the bed.

He had closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep without moving, but his ears had been listening to her movements.

Although she made all her movements as carefully as she could, he still knew that she had been to the closet from the sound. He also knew that she had stopped in front of him and looked at him for a while. He knew that she had looked for something in the bag.

Did she look at me to make sure I was asleep? Then what did she look for in the bag…?

Gu Yusheng turned his head and looked at the vanity. The bag on it was the exact same Chanel from the video.

Could it be that she took her contraceptive pills and snuck downstairs to take them while I was asleep?

When he thought of that, he went to the closet to randomly find clothes for himself. As he put them on, he strode out of the bedroom and rushed downstairs.

The door to the dining room wasn’t closed. Gu Yusheng walked to the door and saw Qin Zhi’ai standing in front of the fridge’s water dispenser.

She had a pill in one of her hand and moved it toward her mouth. She filled a small cup with water in the other hand, then delivered it to her mouth and took a big gulp of water.

It seemed that she hadn’t swallowed the pill yet, since she frowned and took a larger gulp of water. After, she put down the cup and picked up the medicine bottle. As she screwed on the cap, she turned to the door.

Immediately, her whole body seemed to have been frozen. She suddenly stopped in the same place, staring at Gu Yusheng, who was standing at the door. With a blank mind, she didn’t know how to react.
