Chapter 290 Unforgettable
Xu Rou's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes revealed a pleading look. She said in a teasing tone, "Ayu, you know I've always considered you my best friend. Please forgive me this time."
Unfortunately, Gu Tingyu is no longer the Gu Tingyu of the past.
He looked at Xu Rou, his eyes unwavering.
"Xu Rou, you don't need to say anything more. There's no going back between us. Your actions have shown me what kind of person you are."
Gu Tingyu's voice was calm, but it conveyed a sense of determination. He had his hands in his pockets, leaned back slightly, and kept a certain distance from Xu Rou.
Upon hearing Gu Tingyu's words, Xu Rou felt a wave of despair wash over her.
Gu Tingyu stood there, looking at Xu Rou's pitiful appearance, and the last bit of affection he had left made a barely perceptible ripple flash in his eyes.
In fact, Gu Tingyu had always regarded Xu Rou as a kind of spiritual support, a feeling similar to the warmth and dependence of a mother.
However, now that Li Yan has returned, she is like a bright light shining into his world, making him no longer as dependent on Xu Rou as before.
Li Yan stood to the side, her sharp eyes spotting Zhou Zeran walking back from a distance, carrying popcorn and a drink.
She raised an eyebrow and said slowly, "Miss Xu, your boyfriend is back. You should probably tone it down a bit."
Li Yan's voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable threat.
Xu Rou stiffened slightly upon hearing Li Yan's words.
She turned her head and glanced at Zhou Zeran who was walking towards her, her expression instantly becoming much more subdued.
Xu Rou took a deep breath, trying to appear calm, and then looked at Gu Tingyu again, forcing a smile.
"Ah Yu, I'll be going now."
After saying that, she quickly walked towards Zhou Zeran.
Gu Tingyu watched Xu Rou's departing figure, his heart filled with mixed feelings, but he didn't linger too long.
He turned to Li Yan and said, "Mom, let's go inside."
Li Yan nodded, and the two walked towards the screening room.
Zhou Zeran saw Xu Rou walking towards him, her eyes still filled with lingering anger.
He slammed the popcorn and drink down on the table next to him with a loud bang, scattering some of the popcorn.
He frowned, his eyes filled with accusation.
"Xu Rou, what are you doing? What is your relationship with Gu Tingyu? Are you still hung up on him?"
Every word Zhou Zeran spoke was trembling with anger.
Xu Rou was startled by Zhou Zeran's attitude, and a hint of grievance flashed in her eyes.
"Zeran, how can you say that to me? I've given up so much for you, and you still doubt me like this."
Xu Rou's voice was tinged with a slight sob, her lips trembled slightly, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Zhou Zeran sneered, his tone full of self-mockery.
"You gave up for me? Xu Rou, look at how you were just now. You clearly looked down on me, despised me for being poor, and regretted giving up the opportunity with Gu Tingyu and Gu Tingyan."
Zhou Zeran became more and more agitated as he spoke, waving his hands in the air as if venting his anger.
Xu Rou felt a sharp pain in her heart upon hearing Zhou Zeran's words.
Her eyes widened in disbelief that Zhou Zeran would think that way about her.
"Zhou Zeran, how could you say that to me? When did I ever look down on you for being poor? I distanced myself from Gu Tingyu and the others for your sake, and now you treat me like this?"
Xu Rou's voice rose a few decibels, and tears welled up in her eyes, sliding down her cheeks and dripping onto the ground.
Seeing Xu Rou's tears, Zhou Zeran felt a little shaken, but his pride prevented him from bowing his head.
