42 -42 I’m not worthy of you!_1
Bai Xiaosheng walked out of the café, protecting Wu Qiuyan.
Wu Qiuyan’s expression remained somewhat subdued and blank.
Neither of them spoke, silently walking down the street, past the sheltering trees and bustling crowds.
After a few blocks, in a quieter area, Wu Qiuyan suddenly squatted down, at first sobbing quietly, and then breaking into loud, wailing tears.
This woman had a strong, cold shell, yet she possessed the most fragile heart.
Even more fatally, she knew shame.
Bai Xiaosheng didn’t say a word to console her, just stood silently by her side.
After a while, he walked towards a nearby shop.
When Bai Xiaosheng returned, Wu Qiuyan’s crying had subsided somewhat.
He still didn’t offer comfort but handed her an opened pack of tissues.
Some time passed.
Only then did Wu Qiuyan stand up, her expression desolate and lonely.
Her makeup was ruined, but she didn’t care at all.
“Do you really look down on me?” Wu Qiuyan asked Bai Xiaosheng.
“There are many paths in life, and how you walk them is your own choice.
Does what others say really matter?” Bai Xiaosheng said calmly.
“I just think it’s a shame for you.”
“A shame…”
“A shame!” Bai Xiaosheng looked at Wu Qiuyan, whose eyes were now slightly swollen but still beautiful, “Such a proud, beautiful woman, liking a man who doesn’t take responsibility, is it worth it?”
“…” Wu Qiuyan was silent.
“Men who cheat are irresponsible to their families; those who like you but don’t want to divorce to marry you are irresponsible to you.
An irresponsible man, what use is he?” Bai Xiaosheng sighed, “Mrs.
Pang was once young too.
You will age, and when he tires of you, the house remains his, and it will have nothing to do with you.”
“You are really not worth it!” Bai Xiaosheng shook his head.
Wu Qiuyan was stunned, staring blankly, her expression a mixture of crying and laughing.
She had already known all this!
But no one had ever pointed it out to her, and she had always deliberately avoided this truth.
Li Mingtong was no longer the man he used to be, yet she was still obsessed with the past!
Wu Qiuyan laughed, her tears flowing freely, her laughter sadder than her sobs.
Bai Xiaosheng no longer disturbed the woman.
Some things, she needed to think through carefully.
It was unclear how much time passed.
“I’m tired, can you take me home?” Wu Qiuyan asked dizzily, her voice weak.
“I’ll take you home; you need a good wash,” Bai Xiaosheng pointed to her clothes.
It was then that Wu Qiuyan realized her clothes were stained with large patches of coffee, and the smell was unpleasant, which was quite embarrassing.
Wu Qiuyan was a very clean person, and suddenly she felt barely able to stand it.
Seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s indifferent expression, Wu Qiuyan’s face flushed with embarrassment.
The scene earlier, her messy crying in front of this man, was quite shameful…
Pretending to be unaware, Bai Xiaosheng hailed a taxi.
Wu Qiuyan lived not too far from here; a fifteen-minute cab ride brought them to a well-located neighborhood.
Bai Xiaosheng accompanied her into the community, escorting her all the way home.
Wu Qiuyan’s home was very tidy.
But Bai Xiaosheng felt a trace of coldness there.
Perhaps a woman who has been single for too long sees her home merely as a place to live.
“Make yourself comfortable, I’m going to take a quick shower,” Wu Qiuyan said with a frown, gently placing Bai Xiaosheng’s coat on the couch.
Being as clean as she was, she naturally found it unbearable.
Bai Xiaosheng nodded and sat down on the sofa.
Cute and endearing ornaments were on the coffee table, which Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t resist playing with for a bit.
It seems that Wu Qiuyan’s heart still has a side of the little woman.
The sound of rushing water came from the bathroom, and Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but glance over.
To be honest, Wu Qiuyan was a very charming woman, everything about her was impeccable.
Bai Xiaosheng marveled, how could such a woman fall for a man like Li Mingtong.
Perhaps, that’s fate, right?
Who can really make sense of matters of the heart…
As Bai Xiaosheng was caught up in his thoughts.
A startled cry suddenly came from the bathroom.
“Is something wrong?” Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but stand up and ask.
After a brief silence, Wu Qiuyan responded with a shy voice, “I was in too much of a hurry, I forgot to bring my bathrobe…
Could you help me get it, it’s in the wardrobe in the bedroom.”
Bai Xiaosheng froze, Wu Qiuyan had indeed rushed to the bathroom without bringing any clothes.
But this, alone with a woman…
Bai Xiaosheng awkwardly touched his nose.
In the end, he went to the bedroom and easily found a pink bathrobe with a delicate fragrance wafting through the air.
Bai Xiaosheng, holding the bathrobe, hesitated at the bathroom door, then knocked.
“I’ll open a crack in the door, hand it to me through,” Wu Qiuyan said softly.
“Okay,” Bai Xiaosheng pretended to be calm.
The bathroom door suddenly opened a crack, and a delicate white hand reached out quickly, snatching the bathrobe back.
Bai Xiaosheng, caught off guard, didn’t let go.
By the time he felt the pull, a voice from inside chided, “Let go!”
Bai Xiaosheng quickly released his grip.
An exclamation came from behind the door, followed by the sound of a heavy fall.
Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but feel that it must have hurt…
“Bang!” The door closed.
Wu Qiuyan from inside shouted, “Get out!”
Today, she had been too embarrassed, simply too ashamed to face Bai Xiaosheng anymore…
Bai Xiaosheng snapped back to reality and turned to leave.
“Stop!” Wu Qiuyan called out sternly.
Bai Xiaosheng stopped in his tracks, unsure whether to turn back or not.
“I twisted my foot, help me out,” Wu Qiuyan said, opening the door, already wrapped in a towel.
Bai Xiaosheng carefully, and slowly, helped her out, guiding her to sit down in a chair.
Wu Qiuyan remained silent, in fact, she didn’t know what to say anymore.
Bai Xiaosheng felt the same, both of them somewhat embarrassed.
“Consider today, I won’t tell anyone.
In their eyes, Yan, you’re still a figure of glory, unblemished!” Bai Xiaosheng joked with a smile, but as he saw Wu Qiuyan glare at him furiously, he quickly beat a hasty retreat.
“Stop right there.” Wu Qiuyan’s face flushed, she called out in a low voice.
She wanted to tell Bai Xiaosheng, thank you.
Unfortunately, Bai Xiaosheng had already dashed out the door, not hearing her.
“This kid, sure does run fast!” Wu Qiuyan grumbled through clenched teeth.
Bai Xiaosheng jogged all the way out of the building, passing by a van on his way.
Inside the van, several pairs of eyes followed his departure.
“I told you, she’s keeping a little gigolo!” Mrs.
Pang raged from inside the vehicle, “Now that the gigolo has left, go up there and catch them!”
