12 He Doesn't Love Her

She did cling on to him when she slept just now but she did not do that on purpose. In her dream, she did wish that they could be intimate like husband and wife.

"I didn't! I just…"

"Just what? This time you didn't ask something from me and I didn't pay you, right?"

Leng Sicheng harrumphed and flashed a wicked smile on his handsome face. Everything that he said was true. He would either help her to solve her brother's problem or give her money whenever he came and met up with her. As the saying goes, when a man loves you, all your weakness would look adorable to him. However, when a man stops loving you; it's your fault when you cry, it's your fault when you ask for something, it's your fault when you breathe, and it's your fault when you die.

He did not do anything wrong.

The truth was he did not love her.

But why would he come back tonight? Even if Chen Wenjie did not exist, he would only come back once a month to give her money. And she did not call him to ask for help as well. Gu Qingqing was dying to know the answer.

"Why… Why did you come back to me? Why did you lie down beside me?" asked Gu Qingqing with her head bowed and pinching the bedsheet at the same time.

It seemed like Leng Sicheng was going to answer her question. He looked into the mirror to tidy his clothes before walking towards the door. When he opened the door, Gu Qingqing could see that Secretary Chen was waiting for Leng Sicheng outside under the dim light.

"Where is the information that I asked for?" asked Leng Sicheng.

"It's not in your study room or bedroom. I have no idea where it went."

Leng Sicheng did not answer the question that Secretary Chen had.

"There are still eight hours before the meeting. I want you to hand me the file before my meeting!" Leng Sicheng instructed while looking at his watch.

"Yes sir! I will go and look for it immediately!"

Once Secretary Chen was gone, Leng Sicheng stood at the door and looked at Gu Qingiqng in contempt. His stare was like a sword piercing through Gu Qingqing's heart.

"Gu Qingqing, please remember that if you're going to degrade yourself, all you need to do is tell me that you want to use your body to exchange for money! You don't have to look for all those stupid excuses! Tell me honestly about it and maybe I will respect you!"

"What excuses?" Gu Qingqing asked.

However, the reply that she got was the loud slam of the door. And Leng Sicheng was getting further and further away from her. Gu Qingqing rested her head on the pillow and looked the light reflected from the chandelier. Her heart sank. The reason why he came was not because of her. It was because he had left an important document here.

However, she still felt like Leng Sicheng did ditch his new girl and came back here to hug her. Slowly, her eyes closed when she looked at the ceiling with a bitter smile. Some time had passed and she woke up from the sound of thunder outside the house. It was already dawn when she gazed outside the window. She then looked at the clock. It was seven in the morning.

Knowing that she could not sleep anymore, she got up and opened the window to allow fresh air to flow into the dreary room.
