Chapter 499: Chapter 503: Goodbye, My Dream Love.
Thinking about everything that just happened, she should have felt happy, but unfortunately, her heart felt unbearably heavy.
He only thought of her as one of the girls here... how pathetic.
"If when you wake up, I tell you I’ve liked you for a long time, you’ll surely think I’m trying to cling onto you, right? This isn’t the kind of love I dreamed of... How am I supposed to face you in the future?"
Muttering to herself, Chu Xiaoge didn’t make things difficult for herself for too long. After wiping away her tears, she endured the pain, got out of bed, and picked up her clothes from the floor to put them on.
Before leaving, she pulled Shang Dongyuan’s quilt over him and leaned down to kiss his forehead.
Goodbye, Shang Dongyuan... goodbye, my dream of love.
That night, Chu Xiaoge returned to her accommodation without telling anyone what had happened.
She wouldn’t return to Gambling Stone City... What had she been doing all this time anyway?
...
Early the next morning, Shang Dongyuan gradually woke up.
As he got up, he instinctively looked beside him, but didn’t see the woman he remembered.
Frowning slightly, Shang Dongyuan got out of bed to look around, only to see a bright red stain on the bed.
The glaring red color carried a meaning he was very aware of.
He tried hard to recall, finally remembering the face of the woman from last night, though it was a bit blurry. However, he remembered she seemed timid and submissive, and what did she say her name was?
Chu... Chu Nian? It seemed like she said those two words.
"Chu Nian?" Shang Dongyuan called out, searching the suite, but couldn’t find the woman.
Now he was a bit confused. They had agreed on five million for the night, and she left without taking the money?
For some reason, the image of that woman crying under him last night suddenly appeared in his mind, making him feel a deep pity.
Just as he was thinking, the door was pushed open.
Shang Dongyuan quickly looked up, wondering if the woman from last night had returned?
But he saw Wen Yaonan walking in lightly instead.
This was a bit far-fetched...
Seeing Shang Dongyuan’s look of disappointment, Wen Yaonan made it a spectacle. "Oh, our Mr. Shang, who never touches women and only drinks, broke his rule last night?!"
"Shut up." Shang Dongyuan glared at him, neatly adjusted his shirt, and started walking towards the door.
Just two steps out, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked Wen Yaonan, "Are you familiar with the women at this bar?"
"Of course, I’ve been coming here a long time, and I know all the women here!" Wen Yaonan replied confidently.
He wasn’t lying either; he was very familiar with the women there.
"Is there anyone named Chu Nian?" Shang Dongyuan asked, focusing his gaze.
"Chu Nian? That’s a strange name, doesn’t ring a bell..." Wen Yaonan shook his head and added, "She’s definitely not one of the girls here, maybe just someone who came to drink?"
Upon hearing this, Shang Dongyuan paused.
If Wen Yaonan hadn’t heard of her, she certainly wasn’t from here.
It seemed he had mistaken her for one of the girls here and acted abruptly.
But... after a night of passion, she just left?
This left Shang Dongyuan feeling a bit unprepared.
Seeing Shang Dongyuan in a daze, Wen Yaonan seemed to have guessed something and asked, "What’s this? Was the woman you were with last night named Chu Nian? Where did she come from?"
