Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online-Chapter 89 Too Late, Isn’t It? _1

But now, she had never regretted as much as she did at this very moment. It was too late. She was now claimed by Gu Shaocheng and she was no longer the clean and pure girl in Jianqing’s heart.

It’s too late, isn’t it?

As for Gu Shaocheng... Could it be true what Jianqing said, that Gu Shaocheng had ulterior motives? Was he really Jianqing’s brother?

Studying his features closely, Chenxing, for the first time, realized that this man did indeed look somewhat similar to Jianqing.

Her mind was all messed up, she couldn’t unravel her thoughts.

"What are you thinking about?" Gu Shaocheng glanced at her and her absent-mindedness throughout the night annoyed him. Not only she was distracted on such important matters, she also looked full of regrets. He was irked by her attitude.

Subconsciously, his entire being flared up with anger. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"Ouch..."

Chenxing gasped in pain.

Gu Shaocheng, however, tightened his grip on her, brutally hooking her chin, demanding, "If it hurts, then focus. Tell me, what were you just thinking about?"

"No... Nothing..."

"Speak up!" His face shifted between gloom and rage, his movements rough, nearly scaring Chenxing out of her senses. "Chenxing, you know my temperament. I hate liars the most. Tell me, what upset you just now?"

"Nothing really, really, I wasn’t thinking about anything..."

"Are you going to tell me?"

"What... what do you want me to say, I already said it was nothing..."

Gu Shaocheng squinted his eyes, scrutinizing her expression at a close distance, "Open your eyes, look at me."

"No...don’t." Chenxing clenched her lips, imploring pitifully, "I’m embarrassed...ah..."

"Open them, look at me." He gave no room for her to refuse. He was always a chauvinist, showing no mercy unless he was in an exceptionally good mood.

"Shaocheng... Shaocheng... be gentle, please, I beg you..."

"Shaocheng... I beg you, please..."

It wasn’t until Chenxing opened her eyes and repeatedly called out his name, that his grim face slightly softened.

"If you get distracted in my presence in the future, begging me won’t help!" He carried her into the bathroom, his words made her shudder with fear.

Yet, he held her in the warm water, lavishing in the comfort the hot bath brought. Gu Shaocheng lied in the warm water, carefully cleaning the woman in his arms. He reached out for his phone and dialed Yan Fengchi, "Little Four, help me investigate who Chenxing met this afternoon, what she ate, what was said, no detail is superfluous, I want to know everything."

The next morning when she woke up, Gu Shaocheng was already out of bed.

Chenxing stayed in bed for a while, wrapped in her comforter.

In her mind, she couldn’t shake off Xia Jianqing’s words from yesterday. Chenxing tried her best to refrain from crying in her bed, her mouth muttering the name time and time again: Jianqing, Jianqing...

The most innocent crush of a schoolboy in his early adolescence, now seems so distant.

Yesterday, she finally ran away in desperation, without even rejecting him, she was already feeling so weighed down by his ardent gaze.

The sweet and sour memories of that unrequited love, she wasn’t aware all along that there was someone experiencing it alongside her.

Thinking about it got Chenxing quite stirred up, yet she knitted her brows feeling that it was all a distant reality, just like a castle in the air – admirable but unattainable.

"Bang!"
