Chapter 102 Aside from spinning seeds, he's utterly useless.
"Can't I even be afraid?"
Ye Tang pushed Gu Lin away, hugged herself, and leaned tightly against the corner of the elevator.
Men are unreliable.
Aside from scattering seeds, it's useless.
"I was wrong, I was wrong." Gu Lin reached out to hug Ye Tang, but she pushed him away forcefully. "Stay away from me, okay? I knew it, breaking up with you was the right thing to do."
Gu Lin was annoyed. "I've already apologized, why do you have to be like this?"
Gu Lin was also a bit emotional.
I'm not going to coax her anymore.
The two people were in the elevator, one on the left and one on the right, ignoring each other.
About half an hour later, the property management staff arrived with rescue personnel and opened the elevator door.
"Excuse me, the elevator is malfunctioning. Are you... alright?"
The property manager bowed and apologized profusely.
Ye Tang stood up, and Gu Lin tried to help her up, but she shook him off. She turned to the property manager and said, "It's alright, but the elevator still needs to be inspected regularly. If a child gets trapped, it could cause a big problem."
"You're right. We will inspect the elevators promptly in the future, and similar problems will not occur again."
Ye Tang stepped out of the elevator.
After walking up two more floors, I finally arrived at my home.
"Are you still angry?" he asked, standing beside her.
Ye Tang entered the password, went inside, turned around to close the door, but Gu Lin raised his hand to stop her. "What are you doing?"
"Gu Lin, we have nothing to do with each other now. You are not welcome in my home. Please leave."
Ye Tang used all her self-control to refrain from uttering a single curse word.
Gu Lin pursed his lips, then pushed the door open with a little force. "Your home? Who bought this for you?"
He was still angry.
Even though the action of pushing the door open made Ye Tang stagger a little.
He didn't care at all.
Ye Tang turned around and went into the house, going straight to the bedroom and taking out a red property certificate.
"If you have time, let's go transfer the property." She tossed the certificate at Gu Lin.
Since reconciliation is absolutely impossible.
She also wanted some peace and quiet.
Once a relationship ends, it can never be rekindled.
She accepted.
"Wow, that's quite the bravado." Gu Lin tossed the property deed away. "You went on a blind date and met so many monsters and freaks. Now you think you're all that again?"
"What can I say?" She looked up at him angrily. "Gu Lin, let's talk this out openly."
Let's talk.
He raised his chin and plopped down on the floor.
Like a shameless client.
"I admit that I came back to China hoping to get back together with you. Since you don't feel the same way, and since you already have a girlfriend you want to spend your life with, then I'll give up. There's no need for us to entangle ourselves. Let's part amicably. We didn't sort out our assets ten years ago, but it's not too late now."
Ye Tang went back to her room and brought out a cardboard box.
Inside were brocade boxes of various colors.
"Besides this house, here are these... all the gifts you gave me when we were dating. I'm returning them to you. From now on, we're even. Let's not talk about who owes whom anything. Neither of us is a good person."
Gu Lin: ...
He frowned, gritting his teeth in anger, "Is that all? Your mother's medical expenses, your father's debts, your brother's education—you owe me so much more. Do you want to settle all of that?"
"Okay." She said calmly.
I said I would pay it back.
"That includes everything, of course. Name your price."
"I'll name a number." He gripped the sofa with his fingertips, stood up, walked to Ye Tang, and aggressively cornered her against the wall. "Now that you have money, you think you can settle the accounts with me, right?"
"Dr. Gu is clearly about to get married. Don't you hope that for the rest of your life, your ex-girlfriend will never appear again?"
In the past, Gu Lin had indeed helped her a great deal.
Gu Lin's family is well-off.
Her status is even more prestigious than those ostentatious rich kids on the market.
She only found out after she started dating him.
But she never felt inferior to him.
Love is based on mutual respect and acceptance of each other's flaws.
The initial enthusiasm and sincerity were genuine.
The liquidation now is simply following a normal procedure.
"You bought me some clothes before, I can give you a discount, just name your price, Dr. Gu."
Her little face was stubborn.
She possesses the composure of a strong woman.
There are also some women who are very particular.
"You want to settle things with me? You..." He turned his face and brought his lips to her ear, "...Dream on."
"Why bother?"
Ye Tang chuckled softly.
She knew Gu Lin loved to play.
But this game of love is over.
Continuing this will only make things awkward for both of you. "Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about Jiang Wan. She's very innocent and loves you so much. She's all she wants to do is marry you. You're not an irresponsible person, so why say all this?"
"Are you reminding me?" He didn't like hearing that.
Ye Tang nodded, "Of course, since you've clearly rejected my desire to reconcile and you have a girlfriend now, we need to keep things clearly defined between us, so that your wife won't find out about these things and cause me a lot of trouble."
Gu Lin chuckled softly.
Wife?
"It's really kind of you to think of me in everything you do." He clenched his fist and slammed it heavily against the wall next to her head, then grabbed her pointed chin. "Then why don't you repay the favor you owe me as well?"
"I owe you a favor?" Ye Tang curled her lips, revealing an unusual allure, hooked her hand on Gu Lin's shirt button, and laughed mockingly. "You don't owe me a favor? In a relationship, both parties give; it's not about who owes whom. What are you pretending to be, acting all high and mighty?"
"I've given more." Gu Lin's lips almost touched hers.
Ye Tang turned her head and chuckled, "You've given more? I've given less? Gu Lin, don't play that game. We're evenly matched, neither of us can outsmart the other."
He grabbed her chin and forcibly turned her face towards him.
Ye Tang understands him.
But she didn't know how much he had suffered by not contacting her for the past ten years.
For many days and nights, he needed medication to fall asleep.
"Ye Tang, I want to ask you, in the ten years you've been gone, have you ever thought about me? I want to hear the truth."
Gu Lin suddenly became serious.
Ye Tang's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.
She really wanted to lie.
But I also felt there was no need to lie.
"I've thought about it," she said calmly.
Gu Lin's lips trembled as he asked again, "Then why didn't you send me a single message? Even if you sent me just one word, I would rush to find you and forgive you for leaving me. Why? Why are you ignoring me?"
"Can you?" Her eyes reddened.
If he could.
He would have gone with her back then.
She had begged him for help.
But he refused.
"Gu Lin, if you loved me enough, we might have two kids by now. You don't love me enough, admit it. So, I've become the one who betrayed you. How can I contact you again?"
"So, the reason I don't leave with you is because I don't love you enough? Then do you love me enough? If you loved me enough, you would have stayed in Hwaseong, but you didn't, did you?"
I don't know where to start.
The frankness session turned into mutual blame.
Ye Tang smiled.
What's the point of saying all this now?
"Think what you want, there's no point in discussing this now."
She pushed him away, but as she took a step, he pulled her back.
This time, there was no hesitation whatsoever.
He kissed her lips hard and deeply...
