This was the first time Gu Chengyuan had seen Shao Chongsi so indifferent. To be honest, it was quite cool, which inexplicably struck a chord with him. He liked this kind of person. Maybe he should stop trying to coax him and just let Shao Chongsi remain indifferent like this.
But while people can be indifferent, what about their feelings?
Shao Chongsi's mood must be completely shattered by now.
"Don't be angry, Little Persimmon? Getting angry will turn you into a dried persimmon." Gu Chengyuan turned Shao Chongsi's head to face him, forcing Shao Chongsi to look into his eyes.
At this moment Shao Chongsi's eyes were lifeless, and his face was cold and pale.
He must have been really frightened; Gu Chengyuan blinked guiltily.
She gently coaxed him again, "He can't kill me, I can kill him back, really, I only did it because I was sure."
Shao Chongsi didn't believe it and maintained his indifferent expression.
Gu Chengyuan: "How could I abandon you and just go looking for death? Besides, if I'm going to die, I'll take you with me."
Shao Chongsi narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly, "Really? You want to die with me? But I don't want to die, I've never been in a relationship."
Gu Chengyuan finally relented, "... I'll talk to you, okay? Don't be angry. I admit I was wrong. I shouldn't have done that, shouldn't have risked my life. I'm sorry to heaven, I'm sorry to earth, I'm sorry to my parents, and I'm sorry to you."
Shao Chongsi's lifeless pupils lit up instantly. "Are you trying to trick me? Seriously, no tricks. Don't come back later and tell me this was just a stand-in game."
Gu Chengyuan: "..." This has made the child stupid.
"Really, I'm not lying to you. I'd be a dog if I did." Gu Chengyuan out and hugged Shao Chongsi's waist, which he had been coveting for so long. He had come to terms with himself. This Little Persimmon someone he could never get rid of in this lifetime, so he might as well squash him and eat him himself.
Upon hearing this, Shao Chongsi forgot his earlier pain. Feeling comforted, his heart pounded, fireworks lit up his face, and he couldn't help but smile as he hugged the person in his arms back.
" A-Yuan, I want a kiss..." Shao Chongsi immediately reverted to his large, affectionate dog-like self, burying his face in Gu Chengyuan's shoulder and speaking to Gu Chengyuan a clingy tone.
Gu Chengyuan the most soft-hearted, and he always fell for his charms, saying, "Kiss me, kiss me a hundred times."
the next day
Chi Yining started reading voraciously, Yan Guiyun learned for the first time what it meant to cram at the last minute.
Chi Yining flipped through the book as fast as Yan Zhibei, who was frantically cramming for the college entrance exam.
He'll only start the exams after school starts. If he passes all the exams, his wife will graduate early, and he'll set up a special place in the company office for her to relax and have fun.
But now that his wife is reading, Yan Guiyun has nothing to do and doesn't have to go to work, so he starts going into the kitchen to make all sorts of delicious food and learns how to make a lot of desserts.
Even the smell of food made Chi Yining, who was in the study, hungry.
Yan Guiyun placed the snacks, fruit, and milk in front of Chi Yining, then reluctantly got down, not wanting to disturb his wife's studies.
Rites and Ceremonies Courtyard
"When does your school start?" Mo Li asked casually.
"September 15th, what about you?" Chai Yi answered without looking up from her tablet, which was filled with an all-English book.
Mo Li: "Next week, could you pick me up and drop me off at school? I can't drive."
Chai Yi was about to ask about your bodyguards, but he stopped himself in time and changed his answer.
"I'll take you to school, sure, but what will you give me in return?" Chai Yi asked, raising an eyebrow.
Mo Li: "I can promise you one thing."
Chai Yi nodded in satisfaction and continued reading his book.
Mo Li had never thought of Chai Yi as a cultured person before, always deceiving herself into thinking that Chai Yi was a simple-minded fool with strong limbs, but Chai Yi's grades were actually better than Xinyang's, and he was always first in the grade.
Mo Li recalled her terrible grades, which were not worth mentioning.
Also, when exactly will Chai Yi give him those gifts? He's really curious about what Chai Yi gave him.
" Chai Yi, don't you have anything else to say to me?" Mo Li asked, his voice deepening.
Helpless, Chai Yi's mind wandered again. "Not for now. Is it because you have something nice to say to me? What do you want to say?"
Mo Li: "..." How could they turn the tables like this?
In the end Mo Li shut up and lay down on the sofa, bored, to play his Candy Crush game.
Hu Bing finally faced her exam, a test of her recent studies.
Hard work pays off; I passed all the tests by hitting the lines. I was quite lucky, considering I haven't been learning for very long.
Hu Bing was satisfied with this.
An Yan stopped pressuring Hu Bing to study hard, since it was he who had distracted Hu Bing from studying.
The transfer has been successful, but the relationship has stalled.
He didn't say anything, and Hu Bing didn't react either.
But in fact, Hu Bing had been eager to try for a long time, but An Yan had never noticed.
The symptoms were that Hu Bing became more attached to An Yan than usual, following him everywhere.
Since Senior An Yan doesn't like girls, he has a chance.
He didn't dare to do it before, but now he's more open to it.
An Yan remained unmoved. Hu Bing didn't give up and planned to play hard to get, letting their feelings cool down before quickly escalating them.
So today, Hu Bing said, "Senior, I want to go out for a walk, maybe visit my brother, or hang out with some classmates."
An Yan closed the book. "Where do you want to go? I'll go with you."
Hu Bing: "..." I just didn't want you to accompany me, and I was avoiding you, but you still followed me.
An Yan: "Is that not allowed? It's dangerous everywhere lately, I'm worried about you going out. If you want to go out, I'll go with you?"
Hu Bing: "..." That's not how the plot goes, you know.
So the two of them went to Hu Yi's office, which they hadn't seen in a long time.
When Hu Yi first saw Hu Bing, Hu Yi lips almost curled into a wide smile. But when he saw the ever-present An Yan, his smile involuntarily turned down. "Why did you come along too?" Hu Yi rolled his eyes at An Yan with displeasure.
Hu Yi's words were interpreted in a rather subtle way by Hu Bing.
He thought about how An Yan and his brother had a good relationship and often talked on the phone for a long time.
Hu Bing's thoughts were already racing. Could it be... no way? Could it be that his brother and Senior An Yan...?
How could this be!
Hu Bing's gaze gradually turned cold.
An Yan: "???"
Hu Yi: "???"
During lunch, An Yan and Hu Yi engaged in another heated debate, each arguing their point.
But in Hu Bing's eyes, it was clearly flirting and bantering!
Damn, did his newly blossoming crush end in heartbreak?
Hu Bing ordered drinks on the spot and drank a lot.
Hu Yi and An Yan couldn't stop them.
When they finally returned to the compound, Hu Bing rushed to Crimson Flame Courtyard to seek comfort from Chi Yining.
Chi Yining stood at the door, frowning as he looked at the person who had thrown himself into his arms. He then looked at An Yan.
"Hey, what did you do to him?" Chi Yining asked accusingly.
An Yan shook her head helplessly. "I don't know either. It just happened like this after I went to Hu Yi's office today. If I hadn't been there, I would have suspected that Hu Yi had said something to him."
