By the time Gu Yao came out after her shower, the bedroom was empty, with nothing to prove someone had lied here except for the wrinkles on the bed. Everything else remained as usual.
Leaning against the doorframe, she gazed into the bedroom, and laughed at herself with self-mockery.
Love indeed can't be forced. Gu Yao had been wilful last night, making one final attempt for her heart's desires. Now her wish was fulfilled, she had no intention of clinging on any longer.
The joys and sorrows of this world do not blend.
While Gu Yao was leaning against the wall in self-mockery, suffering from love, over at Fuyun Court, Gu Chen and Shen Xian were busy preparing a loving breakfast in the kitchen.
