Chapter 58
Anhao felt a little uncomfortable since he was staring at her. Therefore, she subconsciously took few steps back.
However, Anhao’s hair brushed against her cheeks as the wind blew past them. Yi Zeyang felt as though he was suddenly seeing another person’s shadow even though Anhao was the one standing in front of him. Yi Zeyang did not let go of her hand as he simply stared at her with a frown on his face.
“It’s no wonder why he decided to marry you…”
Anhao did not understand why he would suddenly say that. Therefore, she stared at him as she asked, “What?”
Yi Zeyang could tell that Gu Anhao had applied some foundation on her face and he guessed that she probably did that to cover up the redness of her cheek. As he took a closer look at her, he could tell that her face was slightly pale, probably because of the pain that she was feeling.
Yi Zeyang let go of her shoulders immediately and Anhao took a few steps back. Yi Zeyang’s gaze was still exceptionally sharp and his next sentence sounded like a command. “Anhao, listen to me. Please divorce Zuo Hancheng as soon as possible. Zuo Hancheng will never possibly fall in love with you. Don’t allow yourself to fall into his trap.”
Gu Anhao had already expected Yi Zeyang to say something like that. Therefore, Anhao took a few more steps back as she shook her head.
There was a trace of astonishment in the eyes of the man who had always been very gentle with her. This was because he was obviously surprised by her sudden alienation and coldness toward him.
“I will not divorce him. Furthermore, this is my own life and whether I choose to divorce him or not is not something that you can decide so casually on my behalf.”
Anhao kept her cool as she stared at him with an indifferent expression on her face. “I know that you are saying this for my own good but you should also know that I have never regarded Zuo Hancheng as a good person anyway.”
“Ever since you went abroad more than five years ago, both my mother and I were kicked out of the Yi family. Ever since that day, I have never expected to be happy in the future. I never thought that I would ever fall in love or get married to someone that I loved anyway. Now that someone is willing to take on the responsibility to take care of me, I don’t care who that person is and whether he is Zuo Hancheng or not.”
“Anhao, do you even know what you are talking about?” Yi Zeyang asked as he frowned. “You are just throwing your life away!”
“If it were not for Zuo Hancheng, then my life would have been ruined by Gu Shishi! At the very least, I am certain that Zuo Hancheng would never take advantage of me or anyone else. I understand what you are trying to say. You are telling me that there is someone else in his heart. Is that all? That is fine by me because I don’t care anyway.”
“A marriage without any feelings involved is destined to ruin you! Anhao, please stop being so willful. Just give me some time and wait patiently for me to come back to you…”
Anhao could not stop herself from laughing out loud at his words.
“A marriage without any feelings will not ruin me but falling in love with a man who is about to get married to another woman will definitely ruin me!”
“You…”
“Yi Zeyang, just take good care of your fiancée. From now on, please pretend that we have never known each other. We should go our own separate ways from today onward. I will not pester you anymore and I hope that you will stop staying at A High because of me. Goodbye!” After that, Anhao turned around and left immediately.
“Anhao!” Yi Zeyang stepped forward and grabbed hold of her wrist before she could walk away. “Trust me. There will be no happy ending if you choose to stay with Zuo Hanchneg. You are still young. You are still too young to understand how complex the situation is. You are still too innocent! If you still regard me as your elder brother, then please listen to my advice and leave him immediately.”
In the end, all that Yi Zeyang was trying to do was simply to persuade her to divorce Zuo Hancheng.
Anhao had never expected or dreamt of finding true love in this marriage anyway.
And Yi Zeyang was wrong. This was because Gu Anhao was not innocent at all!
She shook his hand off as she secretly reminded herself that he was already engaged to someone else.
She also recalled how unreasonable she had been at the bar that night.
It was time for her to put an end to all of these misunderstandings.
She would already be twenty years old in a few more months. Therefore, she should not allow herself to indulge in the feelings that she had for this man during her youth. She should stop acting like a child who would act coquettishly whenever she wanted to.
Gu Anhao pushed his hand away as she did not want to talk to him anymore. She did not even want to look at him as the more she look at him, the more upset and uncomfortable she would feel.
After getting rid of Yi Zeyang, Anhao walked out of the grove before heading back into the library to grab a few more books. After that, she hurried back to the dormitory.
She was not acting this way because she did not want to give Yi Zeyang a chance. Instead, she was acting this way because she did not want to have to worry about this matter. After that night of mischief, she had already decided to completely give up on him!

After an afternoon of self-study, Anhao contacted the tutor that Mobai had arranged for her so that they could meet at Giltview Gardens at five thirty in the evening. As a result, Anhao was late for the appointment because by the time she arrived at Giltview Gardens, it was already almost six o’clock in the evening. As soon as she arrived at the doorstep, she saw a tall and thin young man standing at the front door.
Anhao approached the guy immediately and the man turned around to look at her as he glanced at the information that he had about her in his cell phone. After confirming that she was indeed Gu Anhao, the man smiled in a kind manner before he greeted her, “Hello. You must be Gu Anhao, right?”
The man standing before her looked very young and it seemed as though he was only about twenty five or twenty six years old. He was very tall and thin and he was also very handsome. At first glance, anyone could tell that he was a very strict and diligent person who was also very kind and likable.
Anhao felt that she could definitely get along with the person standing before her. Therefore, Anhao was very pleased with Mobai for finding and arranging such a pleasant tutor for her.
He had all the qualities of a gentleman. He was smart, patient and handsome.
Anhao smiled before she replied him, “Hello. Yes, I am Gu Anhao. I am sorry that I am late. There was a traffic jam earlier on and that is why I got home later than I expected.”
In fact, Anhao felt too embarrassed to tell other people that Zuo Hancheng had already confiscated the gold card that he had given to her previously. Therefore, she only had thirty yuan allowance every day and she could not afford to take a taxi home from school. That was why she could only use her student card to squeeze in the public bus with everyone else.
“It’s okay. I know that there is really high traffic right now. I understand that it is difficult for you to leave earlier but I was fortunate enough to leave earlier and avoid the traffic jam.” The man standing before her smiled politely before he reached out his hand to shake her hand. “My surname is Qin. My name is Qin Feng. You can call me Teacher Qin.”
The both of them continued chatting in a casual manner as they got acquainted with one another. At the same time, Anhao also made a phone call to Mobai to thank him for introducing this tutor to her and also to make sure that Qin Feng was really the tutor that he had arranged for her.
After confirming that Qin Feng was not a dangerous person, Anhao invited him into the house.
Since the renovation for the second floor would only be completed next week, they could only have their tutoring session in the study room today.
Qin Feng was also very polite and well-mannered and he did not explore the house on his own. He would only go wherever Anhao asked him too. After a short while, the both of them were finally seated in front of the desk in the study room.
Qin Feng was a little surprised after looking at Anhao’s transcripts over the past few years.
Anhao did not explain too much and she simply said, “I have not been studying seriously for the past three years in high school and I have always been counting on luck. That is why I need a tutor to help me so that I would be able to pass my upcoming final examinations.”
