He has pains

The clothes on Toby Gu's body were slightly messy, and she looked gaunt.

He looked at the direction of the window of her house, his eyes were deep and gloomy.

Lily Chu stopped and did not know how to face him.

She didn't love Toby Gu, and she didn't hate him. She just felt that it was a little aggrieved to put herself in such an embarrassing situation.

Just like his partners, the sudden withdrawal of information was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day.

She thought for a long time and decided to bypass him. She turned around and was about to enter through the back door, but her feet accidentally broke a branch.

The crisp sound was particularly prominent in the quiet night.

Lily Chu could not help cursing in her heart. When she was about to run away, there was a voice behind her.

"Miss Chu."

Lily Chu stopped and punched herself angrily.

"God is really going to kill me! God is going to kill me!"

He took a deep breath and calmed down. He turned to look at Toby Gu with a polite smile on his face.

"Master Gu."

"Miss Chu, I..."

Toby Gu took a few steps forward, and her eyes were full of guilt. She seemed to want to explain. Finally, she licked her lips and said only three words,

"I'm sorry."

Lily Chu knew that she couldn't avoid it, so she might as well face it directly.

She looked at the man in front of her with no sadness or joy on her face.

"Master Gu, you don't have to take it to heart. It's all in the past. If you just come here to apologize today, I'll accept it. If it's all right, I'm a little tired today, so I won't invite you to have a seat. Mr. Gu, please go back."

With this, she turned around and was about to leave.

"Miss Chu, wait a minute. I know you must have a lot of questions. That day, I suddenly left and caused a lot of harm to you. If you can, I hope you can give me a chance to compensate."

Seeing that Lily Chu was about to leave, Toby Gu said in a hurry.

"Can I ask why? What urgent thing can make you leave directly regardless of the face of the two families?" Lily Chu looked directly at him and went straight to the point.

Toby Gu was stunned. For the first time, he was a little incoherent. "I... I, I do have a reason, but I can't tell you now. But I promise there won't be a second time!"

After that, he looked at her expectantly.

"Next time? Do you think the Chu family is weak and easy to bully?"

Lily Chu stopped and looked at Toby Gu with a sneer.

"Miss Chu, I..." A trace of annoyance suddenly appeared in Toby Gu's heart. If it was not that phone call,

He would not be so passive.

Lily Chu felt that it was useless to say more. The injury had already been caused. Without waiting for Toby Gu to finish, she turned around and left.

"Let's talk about the engagement later. I'm really a little tired. I'll take my leave first."

Toby Gu looked at the receding figure with a guilty look on his face. Just as he was about to leave, his mobile phone rang.

Toby Gu took it out and looked at the caller ID on it. He frowned and hesitated for a while before answering the phone.

"Mom."

"Have you settled the matter?"

A stern female voice came from the other end of the phone.

Toby Gu rubbed the space between her eyebrows and was a little annoyed. She said,

"Not yet, please give me some more time."

"You can't even handle such a small matter. What's the use of you? No wonder the old master likes Gu Tinghen and doesn't like you."

The voice on the other end of the phone was a bit sharp, and each sentence was like a sharp knife carved on Toby Gu's body.

Toby Gu was silent, and her fingers, which were holding the mobile phone, turned white, without making any sound.

Perhaps he felt that his words were too harsh, so his voice softened and he sighed.

"Tianqi, don't blame me. I'm doing this for your own good."

"I know, mom. I'll do it as soon as possible."

After finishing her words, Toby Gu hung up the phone, turned to look at the window where the lights had been lit, and turned to leave.
