Breaking His Wings

Gu Qi's female companion was speechless.

The cupcakes weren't a big deal, but she could clearly feel Gu Qi's unusual attitude towards that woman and could not help but act coquettishly.

"Young Master Gu... Are you just going to give her those cupcakes?"

"Shut up," he said.

Gu Qi snorted coldly. He suddenly felt that this woman was very pretentious.

He pulled her hand away from his arm and said in an almost cold and heartless tone, "Miss Bai, we're officially breaking up."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left Honey Lane coldly.

Bai Muqing, who was standing at the side, was stunned.

Gu Qi wanted to break up with her just because of some cupcakes?

Gu Qi was the young master of the Gu family. It was said that he was dissatisfied with everything that his grandfather had arranged for him and wanted to go against his family. Not only did he enter the entertainment industry, but he also had many girlfriends. She had been with him for the longest time out of all his girlfriends. She had thought that in Gu Qi's heart, she would more or less be different.

The truth had proven that she was no different from any other woman in Gu Qi's heart.

The only difference was that she would never go against him.

And she was punished for this one time that she did?

No!

She would definitely not allow Gu Qi to break up with her just like that.

She hurriedly chased after him.

Gu Qi returned to the car rubbing his temples, feeling a headache.

In fact, ever since he returned yesterday, he had been acting as if he was sick. Even in his sleep, he could see those eyes.

Those eyes were extremely calm, but they were like shining stars. Even in the twilight, he could see them clearly through the mist of the setting sun.

Those eyes were really beautiful!

She was so beautiful that he wanted to possess her!

When he raised his head again, he saw Bai Muqing standing not far away, blocking his way.

The expression on his face turned cold again.

He alighted from the car and walked to Bai Muqing's side, seemingly sighing as he looked at her.

"Why don't you have a pair of eyes like that?"

Bai Muqing stared at Gu Qi in a daze. Those eyes were currently focused on her, and her figure was clearly reflected in those pitch-black pupils. At that moment, it was as if he was only looking at her. However, she knew that that was far from the truth.

She wanted to ask him to stay, but just as she called his name, Gu Qi spoke, "Muqing, you know what I'm like. I've always hated it when people pester me. If you don't want us to cut ties completely, then I can recommend you as the female lead in Director Fang's new script."

Hearing these words, Bai Muqing swallowed the words she wanted to say.

She knew that she had no need to say anything.

Looking at Gu Qi's back as he left, she laughed to herself.

She was probably laughing at her own naivety, thinking that after being with him for two years, she would really be able to get his heart.

She had really hoped that one day, the high and mighty great Young Master Gu would love her.

***

At this moment in the Lu residence, Lu Mingxiu sat in his seat with a nonchalant expression. His eyes were half-closed, as if he had not yet woken up. He did not care about the person sitting in the main seat at all.

Old Master Lu's eyes were a little deep. After taking a sip of tea, he slowly said, "Mingxiu, how's your body?"

Seeing that the old man had finally spoken, Lu Mingxiu slowly opened his eyes as well, with a faint smile hanging on his lips.

"Thanks to you, I've fully recovered now."

The old man looked at Lu Mingxiu, who was sitting not far away, and his grip on the teacup tightened uncontrollably.

This grandson of his was exactly like his father. He didn't do anything, but he gave off the feeling that everything was under his control.

In order to prevent the tragedy from happening again, he had thought of ways of breaking his wings, so that he would no longer have the ability to resist.

Although he wanted to be in the entertainment industry in peace, he still felt very uneasy.

This grandson of his had perfectly inherited his beloved son's good points, but at the same time, he was also of that woman's blood, which made him tainted.

The old man put down his teacup and sized him up.

"I called you over today to ask you when you're going to marry the Qin family's daughter now that she's back."

Hearing this, Lu Mingxiu immediately sneered, "Grandpa, I won't marry her. Just give up."

The old man's brows furrowed slightly, but they quickly relaxed.

"Let's not talk about this for now. You rarely come back, so let's have lunch at the old mansion."

Qin Yunshuang rarely came to the old Lu residence. The residence occupied a large area. It was simple and elegant. Although it was seemingly rich in cultural heritage, it also had an oppressive aura surrounding it.

In fact, she didn't like it very much.

However, she didn't dare to reject Old Master Lu's invitation.

Inside the house. "Master, Young Master, Miss Qin has arrived." The butler came in to report.

The old man gestured, "Let her in."

The butler responded and left.

The old man looked at Lu Mingxiu gently, "Yunshuang has returned to the country for so long. I invited her over to have a meal with us. Mingxiu, you'll behave yourself, right?"

Now, Lu Mingxiu finally understood why his grandfather wanted him to come back, and a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes.

He put down his teacup heavily and stood up without any hesitation, "Grandpa, I'm still feeling a little unwell. Let's have this meal later."

After he finished speaking, he prepared to leave.

When the old man saw Lu Mingxiu was about to leave, he immediately roared, "Stop!"

Lu Mingxiu left without even looking back.

The old man was so angry that he directly crushed the cup.

Lu Mingxiu had just walked out of the dark main hall when he bumped into Qin Yunshuang.

Qin Yunshuang could feel her heart beating uncontrollably.

The sun's golden rays shone on his face, clearly displaying his exquisite and handsome face. She couldn't help but mutter his name, "Mingxiu..."

Qin Yunshuang called out his name. Lu Mingxiu only glanced at her before walking past.

Qin Qunshuang was also a smart person. She knew that the old master had called her over today to meet Lu Mingxiu.

She quickly turned around and stopped him.

"Mingxiu, wait..."

The impatience on his face was obvious.

"What do you want to say?"

"Mingxiu, are you in such a hurry to leave because you don't want to see me?"

"Yes!"

Qin Yunshuang was stunned.

He didn't even hesitate when he said this.

He would never have been so merciless to her in the past.

She had only been gone for three years. Could three years change a person so much?

At first, she was full of confidence that Lu Mingxiu would wait for her at the same place, but now she was not so sure.

It could even be said that there was a silent panic, as if something was leaving her, and she could no longer hold on to it.
