Chapter 992  : The Last Thing to Do for Her (2)

As Xu Wennuan spoke, she looked up at Lu Bancheng and realized that his expression was indifferent, as if he was not the least bit interested in what had happened to her that night. Her words suddenly were stuck in her mouth and she stopped talking.

Thinking that she had finished speaking, he nodded lightly at her and merely acknowledged her with a casual, “I see.”

So, he is really uninterested in what happened to me…

Xu Wennuan felt her heart wrench in pain so uncomfortably that she found it difficult to breathe, and silence filled the living room once again. Xu Wennuan had nothing else to say, even after thinking for something so, when she couldn’t stand the silence anymore, she said, “Well, I’ve no business here, so I should be taking off.”Feeling her eyes stinging, Xu Wennuan did not dare to remain any longer. After a final goodbye, she hurriedly turned and dashed out the door without waiting for Lu Bancheng to respond.

Before she reached the entrance, her eyes had already filled with tears. Without raising her hand to wipe them away, she found her shoes through her blurred vision, squatted down, and frantically began to change them. After trying and failing to tie her shoelaces, she gave up, stood straight, and pushed the door open, but before she could walk out, her shoelaces loosened, tripping and landing her flat on the floor. Tears furiously welled up in her eyes.

When Guoguo heard the commotion, she ran out of her bedroom while yelling, “Lu Bancheng!” When she realized that it wasn’t him who had fallen, she heaved a sigh of relief before she walked toward the entrance and saw Xu Wennuan on the floor. She ran over quickly and bent down to help her up. “Are you alright? Are you hurt?”

Because of the tears in her eyes, Xu Wennuan did not dare to look at Guoguo, so keeping her head down she shook her head before mumbling that she was fine. She straightened herself up and pulled her elbow away before hobbling to the elevator.

“Did you twist your ankle?” Guoguo chased after her when she saw that Xu Wennuan was limping.
