Chapter 490: I'll Teach You

ked towards the source of the voice. It was a classmate from her third year of junior high school. She couldn't remember her name for a moment and could only awkwardly smile.The guy didn't mind, and h...I acted impulsively. I should have called my brother, Lu Kuo, beforehand to come with me, but it's too late to call now. Xiao Cai has already pushed open the door to the break room next to her office. She's been here before.

Gu Ruandong was playing pool. He glanced at her when she came in, but didn't speak. He just continued playing, incredibly focused. His fingers were long and the bones were clearly defined. His left hand was slightly open, palm facing down, resting on the pool table. Lu Yaoyao didn't understand pool, but she felt that every finger of his was filled with power. His right hand held the cue, his body slightly bent forward, his eyes focused and sharp on each ball. Between raising and lowering the cue, only the sound of the balls colliding came, very rhythmic and powerful, almost like it was playing a piece of music. It was very cathartic.

But the man was cold and indifferent. After glancing at her, he never looked her way again, treating her as if she were invisible. Lu Yaoyao thought of many apologies, but seeing his coldness, the feeling of invisible pressure made her unable to speak. She would just wait until he finished and then talk.

After about half an hour, Lu Yaoyao's patience wore thin. She got up from her seat and walked to the pool table, pretending to watch him play. With feigned concern, she asked, "Need help"

Gu Ruandong finally looked at her: "What can you help me with."

"I can help you pick up the ball."

Gu Ruandong chuckled and pointed at the table. "Look, which ball needs you to pick up Are you playing ping pong"

Lu Yao's face turned red: "I don't understand, and you don't have to mock me."

"Don't understand You can learn! Here you go, I'll teach you."

Gu Ruandong handed her the golf club.

Lu Yaoyao remembered that this golf club was the one he said was his exclusive last time and told her not to touch it.

He stood behind her, enveloping her completely, supporting her left hand on the pool table and pulling her thumb upward.

A low voice came from above: "Lift your thumb slightly and hold it steady, like a fulcrum."

Then he took her right hand in his, placing the golf club on the thumb of his left hand.

"Let's try hitting a center ball first."

He fixed her left hand with his left, and her right hand with his right, then aimed at the ball and struck.

Lu Yao Yao felt herself being enveloped by him, and as he struck the ball, she leaned forward, almost bumping into the edge of the pool table. When the ball rolled off, he retracted his cue and straightened up, a half step away from her. As she turned around, she nearly collided with his chin.

He let out a low chuckle and looked down at her, "Have you learned the basic techniques yet"

"No." She had been vague just now, as if learning something in one go was possible.

"Teach me again"

She waved her hands hurriedly, "No, no need," and then remembered the reason she came to see him today.

He leaned against the pool table, casually rubbing his cue stick, only occasionally glancing at her. She wasn't wearing the same high-slit dress that showed off her back from the night of the event. Today, although she was still wearing makeup, it was a light look. She had on a crop top, jeans, and sneakers. Her waist was very thin, with faintly visible corset lines. The jeans made her legs look long, giving her a youthful appearance.

Gu Ruandong suddenly had a craving for cigarettes at this moment, and he wanted to smoke a bit. His resting room had an outdoor balcony, and he usually went there to smoke.

He glanced at Lu Yao again, then took his cigarette case and lighter out to the balcony to smoke, not saying a word.

Lu Yaoyao looked at his smoking back, feeling quite baffled. She couldn't figure him out at all.

Does he even know that his photos were taken and posted online Many people are guessing his identity

If he still doesn't know, she could pretend nothing happened and just leave. No explanation, no apology. She was always a coward. This morning, she had mustered up the courage to go apologize in person, but now that he's kept her here for so long, her courage has vanished.

After Gu Ruan Dong finished his cigarette and returned to the rest room, he saw Xiao Song Bao again trying to slink away with her head down. This time, he didn't grab her like last time, so as not to hurt her feet again and have her hold it against him.

Just calmly sat down on the sofa and coldly spoke: “What’s with the photos.”

Lu Yaoyao's hand had already reached the doorknob when she suddenly heard a voice from behind her, like a ghost. It seemed there was no escaping. She honestly turned around and sat opposite Gu Ruandong, confessing everything.

“It was probably that day when you walked me home, and paparazzi might have taken pictures of us, which then got uploaded online. I’m sorry about that. I’ve already asked Hao Jie to take them down and delete all the related information.”

Gu Ruandong looked at her without speaking, his fingers absentmindedly turning the lighter in his hand, as if weighing the truth in her words.

This atmosphere was simply suffocating. Lu Yaoyao wasn't someone who could play psychological tactics, and being stared at like this made her feel both scared and wronged. Her eyes turned red, and she just went all out, starting to cry.

“What's with the look I don't want this either, okay It’s unfair that I got photographed like that. Now everyone online is saying I’m cheating and they're bashing me, especially Yuan Binhao’s fans. They’re being so cruel. My own fans are waiting for me to say something, but what can I say I can't reveal your identity.I don't mind the online drama, it doesn't really bother me. It's just that I'm worried about you. I barely slept last night and came to apologize as soon as I woke up today, but you’re giving me the cold shoulder... What have I done wrong...”

As she spoke, her voice choked up, and a tear rolled down her cheek. She looked both wronged and pitiable.

Gu Ruandong took back the lighter from his hand and pulled a paper from beside him, passing it to her. His voice was a bit tight: "Your makeup is smudged."

He tried to make his voice sound as gentle as possible, so as not to touch her "fragile heart" and make her cry again.

He's never had any experience comforting a girl, especially one who cries so easily.

Lu YaoYao took the tissue and wiped her eye corner: "I wouldn't waste it, my makeup is waterproof."

Gu Ruandong still hasn't commented on the photos circulating online, but Lu Yaoyao feels his attitude is a little better than before. This makes her seriously apologize again.

“I’m so sorry about the photos online. I understand this must be really difficult for you, and I want to do everything I can to minimize the impact this has had. I’m willing to fully cooperate with you.”

"All out" he asked.

"Mmm." She nodded vigorously, earnestly.

Gu Ruandong's lips curled into a smile, and he chuckled lightly: "Then I have to think about it carefully. After all, it really affects me quite badly."

He particularly emphasized the three words "very bad."

Lu Yaoyao listened and felt another wave of guilt.

It was already 10 am. Although the hot search had been removed and all kinds of keywords deleted, today's internet is such that no matter how much money you spend, it's impossible to truly block it out.

Just as I was about to say goodbye to Gu Ruandong, Lu Kuo's phone call came in, his voice booming

“Lu Yaoyao, how did you end up with Gu Ruandong”tone, making it extremely suggestive. 。Someone nearby burst into laughter: "Good thing Mr. Jiang isn't here, men aren't supposed to speak too quickly." 。Then everyone at the table burst into laughter....
