She stopped in her tracks, both hands tucked in her coat pockets. Firstly, she slowly exhaled and then, with a smile, she asked, "Is there something you need?"
Lu Beicheng walked closer. One hand in his pocket, he lifted the hair from her forehead with the other and asked, "You're not going home?"
Faced with Lu Beicheng's nonchalance, Gu Nanyan let out a bemused chuckle.
After laughing, she pushed his hand away, "I'm not joking with you; the divorce agreement is real."
His hand, once pushed aside, curled gently into a fist, and Lu Beicheng said, "I went too far with my words that day."
After parting ways with Shen Li at the bar that night, Lu Beicheng thought about what Shen Li had said, as well as his own words. He realized he had indeed been excessive when he said he could take over Gu's project without lifting a finger.
