Gu Chenfei wore an expression of complete self - justification, which made Gu Yangtao really want to punch her. But there was nothing she could do. Even if she wanted to, it was useless. She was no match for Gu Chenfei.
This Gu Chenfei had been practicing judo since childhood. Gu Yangtao also practiced it when she was young, but later, because she was afraid of the hardship, she cajoled her parents into letting her quit. Gu Chenfei, on the other hand, had been training since she was a little girl.
“Humph,” Gu Yangtao said in a rather haughty tone.
“You've really gone too far this time, Gu Chenfei.”
“Call me sister. And it's you who's gone too far. You were the one in the wrong first,” Gu Chenfei turned her head away, looking as if she had no intention of forgiving Gu Yangtao.
Gu Yangtao's eyes darted around. She couldn't really make Gu Chenfei too angry, or she didn't know what Gu Chenfei would do to her.
So Gu Yangtao hugged Gu Chenfei's arm and shook it back and forth. With a soft and waxy voice, she started to act cute.
“Sister, sister, Sister Chenfei, my dear sister. I was wrong. Please forgive me, okay? It was all Xiaotao's fault. Xiaotao shouldn't have given your contact information to Sister Sisi without permission.”
“Xiaotao just wanted you two to meet and sit down for a cup of coffee. Don't be angry. It's all my fault. I should have told you in advance.”
Xiaotao's fingers intertwined in front of her chest. She stared at Gu Chenfei with big, pleading eyes.
“And?” Gu Chenfei's expression softened a little.
“Huh? And what?”
“The thing about moving out!”
Oh no. How could she forget about this? Gu Yangtao felt that Gu Chenfei's just - softened face darkened a lot again.
“I was wrong. I shouldn't have moved out without telling you. I shouldn't have not called you or told you where I was.”
She knew that Gu Chenfei had always sent people to follow her. At that time, Gu Yangtao thought that since Gu Chenfei knew where she was anyway, and she was also afraid that Gu Chenfei would stop her if she knew she was leaving, so she simply didn't say anything.
After saying goodbye to her parents, Gu Yangtao went to the company where her uncle worked and became her uncle's assistant.
Now Gu Yangtao faced a difficult problem. She really didn't know which thing Gu Chenfei was angrier about.
Was it her leaving home without saying goodbye or her giving Gu Chenfei's private contact information to Gu Sisi?
Wait, private contact information. Gu Yangtao suddenly realized something. No wonder Gu Chenfei knew it was her. It turned out that Gu Chenfei really knew.
Oh, how stupid she was. She was the only one who knew Gu Chenfei's private contact information. Since Gu Sisi had called, Gu Chenfei naturally knew it was her who had given it.
But now Gu Sisi also knew. Well, that was okay too.
After thinking about it, Gu Yangtao thought that Gu Chenfei was probably angrier about her “running away from home”.
So Gu Yangtao started her cute - act again, constantly being cutesy towards Gu Chenfei. Finally, she managed to calm Gu Chenfei down, but Gu Yangtao was completely exhausted.
After Gu Chenfei left, Gu Yangtao collapsed on the bed. After resting for a minute, she started looking for her phone.
Just before Gu Chenfei left, she said that last night, when Gu Sisi found that she was missing, she had called the police, but Gu Chenfei had suppressed it.
Gu Yangtao thought that she should at least call Gu Sisi to let her not worry.
She looked around and finally saw her bag on the bedside table. Sure enough, her phone was inside.
Gu Yangtao picked it up and dialed Gu Sisi's number. After a few beeps, Gu Sisi answered the phone.
“Hello? Who is it?”
“Sister Sisi! It's Xiaotao! I'm so sorry about yesterday. I drank too much. A friend of mine saw me in the bar yesterday. Thinking I was alone, she took me back to her place. Sister Sisi, I hope I didn't worry you too much.”
“Xiaotao! Are you okay? I was really worried yesterday. I even called the police, but the police said they wouldn't file a case until 48 hours had passed. But it's good that you're okay. Have a good rest today. You drank so much wine yesterday.”
Gu Yangtao talked to Gu Sisi for a while longer before hanging up the phone. Then she lay on the bed, recalling her and Gu Chenfei's past.
One of the reasons why Gu Yangtao was so afraid of her was that Gu Chenfei had never shown any tenderness towards her. She usually just punched her whenever she wanted, and Gu Yangtao couldn't fight back.
Gu Yangtao had rarely been beaten by her parents since childhood, but she had been beaten by Gu Chenfei quite a few times.
But Gu Yangtao wasn't just afraid of Gu Chenfei because of this. Mainly, Gu Chenfei had always had a cold face since childhood, and even if she didn't beat her, she had other tricks up her sleeve.
Moreover, Gu Chenfei always knew Gu Yangtao's temper and personality well. Whenever she wanted to punish her, she would hit her where it hurt, which always made Gu Yangtao want to cry but have no tears. Gu Yangtao had also thought about going to her parents to complain.
But later she found that it was useless. Because of some things that Gu Yangtao didn't know about when she was a child, her parents always felt that they owed Gu Chenfei. So even if Gu Chenfei went too far, they would just say a few words without really scolding her.
It was always Gu Yangtao who suffered. It was really like the dumb eating bitter herbs—unable to voice her grievances.
Later, for a while, Gu Yangtao stopped rebelling against Gu Chenfei. She would do whatever Gu Chenfei told her to do and not make Gu Chenfei angry.
But this only lasted for a while. Gu Yangtao's true nature was hard to change. What Gu Chenfei asked her to do really went against her nature and was hard for her to accept.
Later, Gu Yangtao started to let herself go again, just like now. So every now and then, Gu Chenfei's people would find her, take her away, and then something like this morning's situation would happen again.
Gu Yangtao also knew that except in the company, Gu Chenfei had people following her everywhere. That's why Gu Yangtao dared to drink so much wine yesterday. She thought that no matter what, someone would take care of her.
Besides, drinking could calm her nerves after being scared by Gu Chenfei, and it was also because finally, Gu Sisi, Gu Chenfei, and she had sat together for coffee, which was a once - in - a - lifetime thing.
But Gu Yangtao didn't expect that her alcohol tolerance was so poor. She got so drunk and was taken here in a daze. She was really afraid that she had done something stupid after getting drunk, or Gu Chenfei didn't know what she would do to her.
She didn't know why, but this kind of situation had happened many times, but every time Gu Yangtao would be scared.
Since childhood, Gu Chenfei had liked quietness, while Gu Yangtao was a lively and unrestrained girl, always full of energy.
Gu Yangtao remembered that when she was a child, Gu Chenfei often stayed alone. Sometimes she would look at her own face in the mirror, which always made Gu Yangtao feel very strange.
But she was still very curious about this sister. So she always hovered in front of Gu Chenfei. If her sister ignored her, she would keep talking. Whenever she found something delicious or fun, she would always bring a share for Gu Chenfei.
Gu Chenfei seemed indifferent and not interested in these things, but every time Gu Yangtao wouldn't ask for her opinion and just stuffed them into her hands.
Then she would run away in a flash. Sometimes, halfway through running, she would even make a face at Gu Chenfei. Just thinking about it made her feel that she was really funny back then.
