009, princess carry, the worst and most unlucky day

Gu Xinzhou was starving.

She devoured the cake in large bites, grabbing the bacon strips with her pale fingers and stuffing them into her mouth without heating them up.

When the cream and meat felt too greasy, she'd eat a couple of slices of fruit.

"Since when did you learn to drink?"

The familiar yet deadly voice, with an irritating sense of superiority, struck straight into her heart!

She was squatting stiffly, not moving an inch.

The beer beside her was taken away.

It was tossed straight into the trash can.

The plate in her hand and the fruit on the ground were subsequently taken away by a pair of good-looking slender hands.

She remained squatting.

Song Zhen closed the fridge door and looked down at her, "You left with such flair. Now that you're back, how did you become such a coward?"

"You're the coward!" Gu Xinzhou couldn't help but look up and glare at him!

When he saw her little face, bare of makeup, his breath involuntarily slowed, "Not a coward, then stand up! What do you look like, squatting on the ground like that!"

Gu Xinzhou quickly averted her eyes.

Damn it!

She had been squatting for too long, and her feet had gone numb!

She tried to stand, but it was effort without strength.

Gu Xinzhou was annoyed and embarrassed, feeling that her reunion with Song Zhen was a complete failure!

In her mind, she had imagined countless times that she would walk past him with poise, pretending that nothing had happened between them, to keep some dignity for herself.

But...

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

Gu Xinzhou hardened her resolve, gritting her teeth as she forced herself to stand!

But as soon as she got up a little, she tumbled toward the floor!

She clenched her teeth in pain!

To make matters worse, the forcefulness of her exertion caused not only numbness in her feet but also cramps in her legs.

Song Zhen watched her awkward and pained expression, how could he not know what was happening to her?

He quickly bent down and swept Gu Xinzhou up in his arms, not forgetting to scold her, "If your foot is numb, why don't you say so? Girls shouldn't be so stubborn. Can't you learn from your sister?"

Gu Xinzhou was placed on the sofa.

The next second, she used all her strength to push him far away, yelling, "Get lost!"

Her delicate little face was a mix of pain and defiance.

She glared at Song Zhen.

Her gaze cold as the frost of December, her face like a millennia-old iceberg.

Song Zhen was pushed unexpectedly.

He took two steps back and then steadied himself, continuing to stare at her.

Suddenly, he spoke softly, "You… haven't moved on yet?"

"Get lost!" Gu Xinzhou turned away from him, her tone colder than ever, "I told you five years ago, I don't want to see you again!

Song Zhen, you disgust me!

If you have any sense, disappear from my sight now!

Otherwise, if you anger me and I bring up our past, your wish to marry my sister will be even less likely to come true!"

Gu Xinzhou pressed on her legs. The cramping had eased, but her feet felt as if they were being bitten by thousands of ants, still very numb.

Over the years, her heart had been toughened step by step.

Song Zhen had long fallen from the pedestal in her heart and had become synonymous with a scumbag.

She hated him!

She didn't want to see him again!

She hoped time would pass faster so she could hurry back to Italy and escape the country where he was!

Song Zhen looked at her intently, unmoving.

About two more minutes passed.

Gu Xinzhou's feet felt better, and she quickly stood up, intending to go to her room.

She deliberately walked around him.

"Zhouzhou," Song Zhen called out to her, "if you haven't let go all this time, how have you made it through these five years?"

"None of your damn business!"

Gu Xinzhou cursed harshly!

Only after cursing did she realize she was acting crazy; wasn't this the same as admitting she hadn't gotten over him?

Bang!

Her forehead collided with something.

Her own bedroom door!

Gu Xinzhou felt that she was really unlucky today, particularly unlucky!
