My Mr. Gu is Courting Death Again - Chapter 388

Chapter 388: Was There Still No Love In the End? (2) Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Following that, she leaned back on the chair in exhaustion.

The message she had sent read: [Big Boss, may I have a salary advance on a billion?] She had no idea how Big Boss would reply to her request, but he was the only person she knew who could afford such a large sum.

If she and Gu Yu were destined to divorce, she would still keep her word and wouldn’t owe him a single cent.

If she had to leave, she would do so with her head held high! At most, she would just spend her life paying off the loan to her Big Boss.

Even if she had to work a slave’s wage for the rest of her life to repay him, she would rather do that than keep any remaining ties to Gu Yu.

Xu Weilai was pulled back from her thoughts.

She moved her mouse and clicked on the new message.

Big Boss: [Why do you need so much money?] All these years, despite being financially lacking, she had never asked him for anything and had relied on her own hard work to earn her money.

This time around, she was asking for a seriously large amount of money.

It was no wonder that her Big Boss was curious.

However, the fact that he hadn’t rejected her outright was sufficient to give Xu Weilai hope.

She wondered why she had begun to rely on him inwardly.

Perhaps it was because of their many years of working together.

Perhaps it was because her Big Boss had helped her during her most dangerous moments.

Without any intention to keep any information from him, she gave an honest answer.

After approximately five minutes, another message came in.

Xu Weilai clicked it open.

The one word she read had touched her heart: Continue_reading on MYB0X N0V EL.

COM Gu Yu was at an extremely cozy restaurant.

Gu Yu lifted his wrist to check his watch.

It was already half-past eight—half an hour past the time that he and Xu Weilai had agreed upon.

He frowned.

Because of her job, Xu Weilai was a stickler for punctuality.

Thus, she would never be late under usual circumstances.

He picked up his cell phone and, with a familiarity that showed how often he had done so before, he dialed Xu Weilai’s number.

The phone rang in his ear for a while, but no one answered the call.

Gu Yu’s eyes slowly darkened.

At nine, Xu Weilai was nowhere to be seen.

At half-past nine, she still hadn’t shown up.

When it was getting close to ten, Gu Yu’s expression began to turn cold.

He picked up his cell phone again and dialed Xu Weilai’s number.

This time, the call went through.

His voice was very deep and very cold when he said, “Where are you, Xu Weilai?” Even though he was furious, his voice still carried a hint of worry without him realizing it.

Was it possible that her absence wasn’t deliberate? Was it because she had met with an accident? “I’m at the entrance,” Xu Weilai voice sounded a little surreal and a little strange.

Gu Yu was left speechless… Xu Weilai raised her head and looked at the door in front of her, wondering what scenario she would meet with when she walked in.

She didn’t want to come because she lacked the courage needed to do so.

She wasn’t willing to witness a scene that she didn’t want to see.

Even so, perhaps she wanted to force herself to let go once and for all.

Perhaps she was still holding on to a sliver of damnable hope.

She didn’t know why, but she had a strange feeling that Yun Rou said those words because she didn’t want her to show up! Whatever the reason, she sped her car over.

However, she lost all of the courage she had when she reached the door.

She stood there timidly for a while.

Xu Weilai tightly clenched her fists.

She had already made it this far, so there was nothing else for her to worry about.

She even had the divorce papers with her in her bag! Xu Weilai opened her mouth to say, “Gu Yu, before I come in, I have a question I’d like you to answer.
