Chapter 350: Chapter 350: Feel Inferior to Him?
At the door of the room, Gu Shiting took out the room card that Song Chen had prepared for him.
He opened the door and walked into the room, seeing Sheng Tang still standing at the entrance, not planning to come in.
Gu Shiting hesitated for a moment and looked back at her.
Sheng Tang smiled and said, "You go take a shower first, I just followed to see your room number. Since there’s nothing, I’ll head back now. It’s already late, if there’s anything, we can..."
Before she finished speaking, Gu Shiting had already pulled her inside.
Sheng Tang stumbled as he tugged her, the whole person falling into his arms.
And Gu Shiting, in a state of complete physical exhaustion, felt as if his arm weighed a thousand pounds. Sheng Tang’s collision caused him to fall backward.
He held firmly onto Sheng Tang’s waist.
Sheng Tang, lying in his arms, fell to the ground with him, hearing his head knock against the floor with a thud, even though the floor was carpeted.
It felt like his skull was about to crack.
Sheng Tang wished she could cradle his head and gently massage it for him.
She hurriedly asked, "Are you hurt?"
The fall was quite severe. Gu Shiting’s mind buzzed, head spinning and ears ringing, only hearing Sheng Tang’s words after a long while.
He held her waist tightly with one hand, the other hand slowly caressing her face, tucking her hair behind her ear.
Sheng Tang held his head, rubbing it again and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Gu Shiting didn’t move.
Nor did he answer.
Sheng Tang wanted to get up but his arm was heavy, holding her tightly.
"You’re all sweaty, go take a bath. I won’t leave," Sheng Tang said, "First let me go."
Gu Shiting hesitated for a moment and released her.
He filled the tub with hot water and soaked in it, his exhausted limbs gaining some slight relief.
He didn’t hurry out but stayed in the bathroom for a long time, thinking about how to talk to Sheng Tang.
An hour later, he finally came out.
By this time, his body had rested, his limbs still sore but not as weak as before.
Sheng Tang sat on the large bed, casually flipping through a magazine on the bedside table.
Seeing him approach, she patted the spot beside her, inviting him to sit.
Gu Shiting, wearing a bathrobe, sat next to her.
"You played ball for seven or eight hours today, did you know your family was worried sick?" Sheng Tang’s tone was gentle, without any reproach.
"And you?" Gu Shiting spoke, his voice incredibly hoarse, "Were you worried too?"
Sheng Tang nodded, "Of course."
Then, she asked him, "What did you see in the morning?"
"I saw you sleeping in his car." The mention of this made Gu Shiting’s heart filled with fury, his voice instantly turning sharp as a blade, desperate to cut Gu Jiahui to pieces.
In his view, Sheng Tang could only be so relaxed in front of someone very close to her.
She must trust Gu Jiahui deeply to fall asleep in his car.
Thinking of this, Gu Shiting’s heart felt like it was soaked in cold water, icy and painful.
Sheng Tang tapped his head, "Are you stupid? I had exams all day yesterday, stayed up all night, and was exhausted by morning.
The car was warm and rocking, even a little sleepy person would easily fall asleep, let alone me in that situation?"
Gu Shiting’s expression softened a bit.
Sheng Tang sighed, "I’ve told you countless times, there’s nothing between me and Gu Jiahui, why can’t you trust me?"
Gu Shiting lowered his head.
"Or, do you think you’re not as good as him, afraid he’ll replace you?"
Gu Shiting abruptly looked at her.
Could this be what she thought too?
Sheng Tang met his gaze, pressing, "Is that what you think yourself?"
"What about you?" he countered, his throat dry.
Sheng Tang said, "I think you’re the best person in the world, not even ten thousand Gu Jiahuis can compare to you. I even told my parents and grandma at dinner that I would spend the winter break at your house..."
