Chapter 88  : Better Die to Save Everyone’s Trouble (8)

Gu Yusheng was indeed in the Majestic Clubhouse, but he wasn’t playing Mahjong there.

He was sitting on the sofa by the window with his feet propped up, staring at the gloomy sky. Surrounded by noise and screams, he ignored everyone and smoked alone.

While shuffling cards, someone noticed that Gu Yusheng sat on the balcony and hadn’t said a word since the beginning, so he couldn’t help but ask, “Master Gu, don’t you want to play with us?”At six o’clock, there was still no sign of the rain stopping, for it was raining even heavier now. The rain constantly streamed down along the window like a small waterfall.

At about ten past six, someone left the game early because of personal affairs.

The game couldn’t continue with only three people left, so under the urging of the other two, Lu Bancheng tried to ask Gu Yusheng, “Brother Sheng, do you want to play for a while?”

After about half a minute, Gu Yusheng moved his eyes slowly from the downpour outside to Lu Bancheng’s face. He smoked and continued to sit on the sofa for a little while, then stood up and walked towards the table.

There was a dinner party at half past seven in the evening, so people continuously walked in at about half past six despite the wind and rain.

Mr. Zhang of the Beiting Company came with his wife. Gu Yusheng had met his wife several times and faintly remembered that her surname was Lu, but when they greeted each other, Gu Yusheng just nodded slightly and said nothing.

When Mr. Zhang’s wife saw Gu Yusheng, she was slightly surprised. She looked around as if she was looking for someone, but didn’t see the person, so she asked in confusion, “Didn’t Mrs. Gu come?”

Gu Yusheng couldn’t figure out which ‘Mrs. Gu’ she was talking about, so he continued to take tiles and hand them out indifferently with a cigarette between his lips.
