Chapter 44: The Haze of Five

  "Just as...". Just when Wei Zichu wanted to say that today's fine weather and sunshine were not suitable for rough movements, Gu Chen continued in a light tone: "I'm not interested in Lan Huan, but I am interested in some people who don't listen." The three words "don't listen" were bitten extremely heavily, I trembled, thinking about quietly slipping away?

  Wei Zichu's inquiring eyes fell on me once again, with a few hints of inexplicable complexity, and asked tentatively: "Then who is this beauty?"

  I thought Gu Chen would say something like "mind your own business" or simply ignore Wei Zichu, but instead he just raised an eyebrow and said lightly: "My sister, Gu Qing."

  I think Gu Chen is a very honest kid, probably.

  "Ah, so it's Miss Gu." Wei Zichu looked at me with a mixture of admiration and reverence in his eyes, aside from the drooling.

  I awkwardly jumped out of Gu Chen's arms and quietly asked him by his ear, "What is Lian Huan?"

  He snorted and replied with a half-smile: "You're meddling too much."

  This awkward kid is not cute at all! I felt a surge of disgust in my heart and couldn't help but curl up the corner of my mouth.

  "Master Gu, since you're not interested in Lan Xuan, I'll just take this thing without hesitation." Wei Zichu waved the small bag in his hand and smiled with a hint of meaning: "My young master always mentions you, and today I see that you are indeed different from others." Wei Zichu thought for a moment, then looked at me again, "Of course, Miss Gu is also quite different from others."

  I always feel like I'm being taken along for the ride.

  Gu Chen didn't say a word, standing coolly by my side, as if he was about to say "get lost" or something like that.

  It's unclear when it started, but Gu Chen has also grown into a capable person who can hold his own, suddenly giving people a strong feeling.

  I looked at Gu Chen under the moonlight, he stood there, with a proud and arrogant expression that only belonged to him. At that time, he was still such a handsome young man, just standing there could attract everyone's attention.

  He looked over at me with a deep gaze, carrying an inexplicable focus, and asked: "What are you thinking?"

  "I recall a poem," I said with feigned profundity: "In the crowd, searching for him in vain for a thousand times, suddenly turning back, that person is actually in the midst of the lanterns' dim light."

  Even I was being roasted by myself.

  Gu Chen raised an eyebrow and chuckled: "Sister, when did you become so sentimental?"

  I gave him a white eye and asked back: "When did I become insensitive?"

  Gu Chen took two steps forward and stood in front of me. In that instant, it seemed as if a mountain of pressure was coming towards me, but I didn't move, only looking at Gu Chen.

  He said: "You are a spoiled girl who is domineering and arbitrary, without a conscience."

  "Gu Chen, I still have many good points!" I got angry and felt that Gu Chen had said something too excessive about me.

  Gu Chen directly ignored me and said, "In the future, no one will be willing to marry you. Look at how wild you are, most boys like girls who are a bit softer, you will definitely not be able to get married in the future."

  "Whatever!" I pulled Gu Chen up and left, not wanting to continue discussing this topic with him.

  Actually, Gu Chen was right. Most boys like weak and delicate girls, such girls can make them have a strong desire to protect, making their self-esteem and vanity as boys extremely satisfied.

  But I've never been a weak and timid girl, I don't want to hide behind boys, I hope to stand shoulder to shoulder with them, rather than just being protected.

  In the years that followed, I couldn't help but feel a deep regret whenever I thought of this scene. If only I hadn't been so impatient and pulled Gu Chen away, if only I had let him finish what he was going to say next, would our ending have turned out differently?

  But at that time I really didn't know that Gu Chen said to me: If you can't get married in the future, then I'll support you for a lifetime.

  Such touching words, sorry I couldn't hear them from your own mouth.
