Chapter 270: If You Can, Please Help
It seemed more like mocking her, pretending to treat Song Xiaozhi as a friend, busy coming and going, but when it really came to crucial moments, look... still hesitating, even starting to retreat.
If that’s the case, why bother to speak?
So, Gu Tiantian was certain that Bai Chenyao was laughing at her, mocking her!
Gu Tiantian’s heart tightened sharply once more.
Even a sense of guilt erupted from her heart.
She even seriously began to think if she could really throw away her life for Song Xiaozhi?
Was her friendship with Song Xiaozhi really that deep?
Suddenly, the dazed and fearful expression on Gu Tiantian’s face slowly faded away, revealing a determined and earnest look on her doll-like face, her black grape-like eyes focused intently on Bai Chenyao.
"Who knows what the future holds, but Xiao Zhi’s situation is urgent. If I give up now, I might miss the opportunity to help, and maybe I’ll regret it for the rest of my life!"
Therefore, for that possible regret, she was willing to bow her head now.
Even if... it’s for a lifetime!
She figured it out because people’s hearts change easily!
Who knows how long Bai Chenyao’s interest in her will last.
Now he seems to speak of a lifetime, but a year, two years, three or five years later...
Gu Tiantian felt that her momentary distraction just now, thinking about all those chaotic thoughts, was purely wishful thinking.
Although she and Song Xiaozhi didn’t know each other from childhood, and only got acquainted after she joined the company, it doesn’t hinder her judgment of whether Song Xiaozhi is someone worth associating with.
She felt that Song Xiaozhi was worthy!
Her grandmother once told her that some people can be in your life for decades without helping when you need it, while others might help you just based on a look or a chance encounter.
Song Xiaozhi was that latter kind of person to her.
Thus, she felt utterly ashamed for her moment of hesitation.
"Bai Chenyao, if you could, please help!"
It was her first time looking at Bai Chenyao so earnestly and talking to him.
No longer did she harbor timidity towards him, nor was she being perfunctory, coerced, or any other emotion.
Even though Bai Chenyao really wanted her for a lifetime, she was willing.
Bai Chenyao did not speak, his handsome and stern face showing no emotion, no change in his expression.
It seemed that no matter what decision Gu Tiantian made, it wouldn’t cause a ripple on his side.
"I’ll have Li Mu take you home!"
Bai Chenyao said, looking at her with a detached expression.
"Now, come over, sleep!"
Having said that, Bai Chenyao did not look at Gu Tiantian again but went back into the resting room.
Gu Tiantian watched, not overthinking, nor did she wish to overthink.
Desires that should come will eventually return; those that shouldn’t come, thinking too much is just self-delusion.
When she had earlier entered the resting room, she had indulged in wishful thinking!
Tsk!
Actually, it wasn’t really self-delusion; she had simply misunderstood!
Feeling ashamed to the point of utter embarrassment.
And now...
She went in honestly, saw Bai Chenyao was already lying down, and without hesitation, went into the bathroom to change into sleepwear, came out, took off her shoes, and obediently climbed into bed.
Lying beside Bai Chenyao, allowing him to reach out and encircle her waist, and then... nap, sleep.
Upon waking, it was less than an hour.
The edge of the bed was empty, the bathroom was quiet and peaceful.
Lying in bed, Gu Tiantian listened carefully, the sound of paper being gently turned came from outside the resting room, she relaxed her tense nerves.
After changing clothes, tidying her hair, changing shoes, washing her face, and getting herself ready, Gu Tiantian finally came out of the resting room.
