While she was distracted, the bowl slipped from her hand and fell into the sink. The loud crash made her snap back to reality.
Xu Weilai saw that she had been washing the dishes for almost half an hour, but she still hadn't finished washing them. She couldn't help but smirk self-deprecatingly.
She composed herself and cast aside all the messy scenes in her mind. She carefully and quickly washed the bowls and chopsticks, then put them into the disinfection cabinet and pressed the disinfection button.
After taking off her apron, Xu Weilai walked back to the living room and sat down on the sofa. She picked up a pillow from the side and hugged it in her arms.
The apartment was very quiet. It was so quiet that her imagination couldn't help but run wild. No matter how hard she tried to stop those scenes from popping up in her mind, she couldn't.
How did she get through those three years?
Oh, she worked part-time day and night. She always kept herself busy, so she naturally didn't have time to think about Gu Yu.
Xu Weilai got up again and walked into the study. She sat behind the desk and turned on her laptop.
Because she had been sick, she didn't finish writing the previous interview report about CEO Chen. She wanted to continue writing, but just as she opened the document and typed a few words on the keyboard, the words that CEO Chen had said to her suddenly entered her mind.
It was really... she couldn't avoid it no matter what.
Xu Weilai slammed the computer shut in frustration and rubbed her tired temples. She began to have the same headache she had when she was in the apartment in China.
Was it the surrounding environment that made her unable to calm down, or was she unwilling to let herself off the hook?
Actually, that wasn't the problem at all, because... she knew too well what the answer was.
If she really didn't care anymore, no matter what others said, it wouldn't make her waver in the slightest. Only when she couldn't let go, only when she was unwilling, and only when she cared, would she feel an indomitable sense of courage because of a few words from others.
Xu Weilai turned on her laptop again, but she didn't continue writing her exclusive interview. Instead, she moved her mouse and opened Weibo.
Ever since she had finished talking to Xiao Chun on the phone that day, after Xiao Chun told her not to pay attention to the backlash against Gu Yu on the internet, she had deleted Weibo from her phone. Out of sight, out of mind.
So these days, she didn't know how the incident on Weibo had developed or if it had been handled properly.
After she opened it, there was no longer any Weibo page that showed Gu Yu or the Gu Corporation. So... the Gu Corporation's public relations team had suppressed the news?
She couldn't help but click on the official Weibo of the Gu Corporation. Unexpectedly, she saw... that the latest Weibo post was forwarded late that night.
And it was forwarded to Gu Yu's private Weibo account!
According to Xu Weilai's understanding, Gu Yu didn't have a private Weibo account. He didn't usually play with these things. His phone was only used for contact purposes. Even Wechat was rarely used by him.
She took a look and saw that Gu Yu's private Weibo account was also newly registered. His ID was Gu Yu, and his profile picture was blank. He followed nobody, but the number of people who followed him had already exceeded 50 million...
There was only one Weibo post on the entire homepage. It was the one that followed after he registered that night.
There were only two words: divorced.
There was no cause and effect, no explanation, and it simply explained a fact. However, because of this, it verified his image as a scumbag who abandoned Xu Weilai. The comments below were all scolding him, and there were already more than 300, 000 comments.
Even so, he didn't respond to any of them.
