16 Do You Really Hate Me That Much?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the next few days, Gu Cheng really ignored Fang Qing just like he said, even though he didn't say a word to her.

The people in the Gu family soon noticed that something was off, especially Xiao Yun and Zhao Mei, who was elated to see Gu Cheng treat Fang Qing coldly for the next few days. Although Gu Cheng had always been indifferent to her, Zhao Mei thought that she had a chance and even tried to curry favor with Gu Cheng, especially when Fang Qing was around.

At first, Fang Qing felt that Zhao Mei's behavior was too disgusting. As time passed, she realized that Zhao Mei was treating her like a clown just to disgust her.

If she continued living like this, it would be easy for Fang Qing to return home when her deadline was up.

Ever since she quarreled with Gu Cheng, Fang Qing had been immersed in her work. One night, Fang Qing worked overtime in the company until eleven o'clock before she finally finished processing the materials, when the security guard came up to tell Fang Qing that she was going to close the door and cut off the electricity, Fang Qing realized that she was the only one in the office.

Fang Qing yawned and stood up from her chair. She suddenly realized that it was raining cats and dogs outside. Fang Qing quickly walked to the underground garage and quickly found her car and started it.

Fang Qing's driving skills had always been good, but now that it was night and she had been working for too long, it was easy for her to fall asleep. It was a long straight road to the Gu residence. Fang Qing opened her eyes and started fighting against her drowsiness, but she was using her last bit of consciousness to maintain it.

Suddenly, the sound of the car collapsing was heard. Fang Qing was startled awake and realized that the right front wheel of her car had fallen into a pit. No matter how hard Fang Qing stepped on the accelerator, she could not get the car out. Fang Qing had no choice but to get out of the car to check. Her body was immediately drenched by the rain, and her hair condensed into a sheet. She realized that the pit was too deep, and it was impossible for her to lift the car tire with her own strength.

Fang Qing called the tow company again, but the tow company informed her that there would be heavy rain tonight. The television had already issued an early warning to prevent vehicles from leaving the city.

Seeing that it was only ten kilometers away from the Gu family, Fang Qing had no choice but to call the only person she knew, Gu Cheng.

The call was picked up after two beeps. "What's the matter?" The cold voice that seemed to be worse than a stranger reached Fang Qing's ears through the phone.

Fang Qing wanted to hang up immediately, but the situation forced her to lower her voice and say, "My car is stuck in a pit. I can't come back..."

Fang Qing seemed to have caught a cold after being drenched in the rain, and her voice sounded a little nasal. After Gu Cheng heard that, although he had been deliberately avoiding contact with Fang Qing for the past few days, he still felt as if his heart was being scratched. He hurriedly said, "Where are you? Send a pin location to my phone and I'll pick you up."

After Fang Qing agreed, she hurriedly sent her location to the other party's Wechat. After about twenty minutes, Fang Qing saw that there were car lights flashing on the opposite road. Not long after, two cars stopped not far in front of Fang Qing's car.

After Gu Cheng saw Fang Qing's car, he immediately got out of the car and ran over to open the car door for her. After Fang Qing came out, Gu Cheng took off his suit jacket and put it over Fang Qing's head. Then, he pulled her into his car. After Fang Qing sat down and fastened her seatbelt, Gu Cheng slowly started the car. He did not stop talking. "How could you be so stupid? There was such a big pit on the road, and you still crashed into it."

Fang Qing had already felt very wronged after being caught in the rain. When she heard Gu Cheng's words, tears welled up in her eyes.

Gu Cheng had never seen such a scene before. He changed his words and said, "But I can't blame you. The road was too straight and the lights were dim at night. When I came back, I almost crashed into it. It's true."

Fang Qing knew that he was comforting her, but seeing Gu Cheng's sincere and funny expression, she could not help but burst out laughing. When Gu Cheng saw Fang Qing laughing, he did not know why he also grinned. It could be said that it was the first time in the past few days that he was so relaxed.

Gu Cheng took into account that Fang Qing was beside him, so he deliberately slowed down the car, so it was not as fast as when he was driving toward her. The tractor behind them quickly caught up, and after carefully passing Gu Cheng's car, it quickly drove back to the Gu family.

The car was still some distance away from home, so Gu Cheng suddenly said, "I was too impulsive that day, but do you really hate me that much?"
