Chapter 286: Chapter 286 I Was Wrong
When they started shopping, Gu Shiting was in a good mood.
Later, he was noticeably distracted.
Halfway through, Mr. Gu received a phone call and had to go out.
Mrs. Gu planned to visit her parents to discuss some matters and wouldn’t be home for dinner.
Sheng Tang had promised to stay at the Gu Family Villa for two days, so she didn’t leave. After returning, she was exhausted and rested for two hours.
When she used to take afternoon naps, Gu Shiting would definitely come to her side, but this time he didn’t.
When she woke up, she couldn’t find Gu Shiting anywhere in the house and was quite puzzled. She immediately went to ask Song Chen.
Song Chen pointed to the top floor, "Master is upstairs."
At the top of the Gu Family Villa, there are two small attics with glass roofs, allowing you to lie inside and watch the stars on clear summer nights.
This was something that Miss Gu Shiyan insisted her parents renovate during her teenage years.
She was very considerate and left one room for her brother.
Gu Shiting never comes up to watch the stars at night, but whenever he’s in a bad mood, he locks himself up there to lie down.
Sheng Tang directly climbed the stairs to the attic.
It was afternoon, the sun was setting, and only a few strands of golden light fell in the corner of the attic.
The room was well-heated, with two pots of lush potted plants nearby, reminiscent of early summer.
The attic was less than 1.8 meters high, so Gu Shiting had to slightly bend as he walked.
There was no carpet, but there was a soft mattress with sheets laid by the servant, along with a small bookshelf and fridge nearby.
Gu Shiting was lying on the mattress, staring blankly at the ceiling.
"How cozy," Sheng Tang said.
Gu Shiting was slightly startled, then closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Sheng Tang stood next to him, looking down at him, observing his fair cheeks, deep eyebrows, straight nose, and his lips still lacking sharp contours, resembling a big boy.
She thought he looked handsome.
The faint sunlight fell on his face, giving him a golden edge.
Sheng Tang hesitated for a moment, then took out her phone to snap a few photos of his sleeping face.
As she took photos, she deliberately turned on the camera sound and secretly observed Gu Shiting.
Finally, he couldn’t resist opening his eyes.
Sheng Tang hid her mischievous smile, pretending not to notice his fake sleep, "Awake? Did I disturb you?"
Gu Shiting sat up.
His eyes were somewhat dim as he patted the spot next to him.
Sheng Tang sat down and showed him the photos she took, "Look, you’re so photogenic. You could be a model in the future. You have the height..."
Gu Shiting glanced at them.
Her photography skills were quite good. Even with a phone camera, she took photos that looked like they were shot with a DSLR.
Of course, it was also because the model was handsome enough.
"Do they look good?" Sheng Tang leaned closer.
Gu Shiting moved aside.
Acting spoiled, what a child.
Sheng Tang pretended not to notice and moved closer, "Do they not look good?"
Gu Shiting quietly looked at her.
Sheng Tang looked up, meeting his gaze directly.
It was the first time she noticed the depth of the emotions in the boy’s eyes, as if hiding pain.
His eyes used to be indifferent, even when he wasn’t happy.
"I was wrong. Don’t be mad, okay?" Sheng Tang moved closer again, softly comforting him.
She didn’t really know what she did wrong.
She noticed Gu Shiting’s weird mood when they returned to the Gu Family Villa, where he walked inside alone without waiting for Sheng Tang.
However, Sheng Tang was someone who could bend and stand firmly. In front of such a cute boy, even if she was not wrong, what’s the harm in admitting fault and lowering her head?
