If we don’t clarify things, it’ll only end up hurting him more in the end.
"What’s wrong?"
"The real reason I ca back this ti is because I like..."
"It doesn’t matter, I’m just glad you’re back." Ais knew what she was about to say.
He certainly wasn’t going to give her the chance to refuse.
"..."
It was already hard enough to speak, and being interrupted like that, Gu Yao really didn’t have the courage to say sothing hurtful again.
"I should go back now. It’s cold, you should head back early too." Gu Yao stood up, ready to leave.
"Gu Yao."
Ais suddenly called out to her.
Gu Yao turned back to look at him: "What’s up?"
"Will you stop talking to because of your brother?"
"..."
Seeing Gu Yao not speaking, Ais anxiously stood up and continued, "I’m not afraid of getting beaten."
"..."
Seeing Ais like this, Gu Yao increasingly felt that he reminded her of soone.
Soone who seed both familiar and unfamiliar, and such an Ais gave her a strange feeling.
—Last night my brother lost his temper and told not to date you, and said he’d beat you up if he saw you again.
—I’m not afraid of getting beaten. Let your brother co as he pleases.
—No way, you can’t hit my brother.
—I won’t hit him; I’ll let him hit .
—That’s not okay either.
A strange conversation like this suddenly popped into Gu Yao’s mind, with so fragnted images flashing before her eyes.
Gu Yao felt baffled, not understanding why such a conversation would appear.
"Gu Yao?" Seeing Gu Yao staring blankly at him, Ais waved his hand in front of her.
Gu Yao snapped back to reality and stared at Ais for a while longer.
If she weren’t sure that their eting at the bar was the first ti they had t, she’d suspect she had known him before but just forgot.
"What’s wrong?"
"Nothing, I’m leaving first."
"You haven’t answered yet, will you stop talking to because of your brother..."
Perhaps provoked by Ais repeatedly ntioning "because of your brother," Gu Yao, as if in a huff with Gu Sheng, blurted out, "No."
"Really?" Ais’s eyes lit up, and he asked joyfully.
"Mm, I’m leaving now." Gu Yao, feeling very upset, only wanted to go ho and quietly stay in her room for a while.
"Be careful on your way."
Ais knew when to advance and retreat, seeing Gu Yao’s expression, he didn’t say anything more.
He simply watched as Gu Yao left.
Feeling Ais’s gaze lingering on her, Gu Yao subconsciously quickened her steps.
Not until she had walked away did Ais finally withdraw his gaze.
Ais raised his hand, lightly touched the wound on his face, then looked at the drawing in his hand.
"I must have learned it well enough."
Ais muttered to himself, furrowing his brows and thinking seriously for a mont, then nodded with satisfaction at his own recent performance.
"Shangguan Yu should be just like this."
In recent days, Gu Yao hadn’t seen Gu Sheng. To be honest, she both wanted to see him and was afraid to see him.
She feared that once they t, they would argue again, but she also didn’t want to keep giving him the silent treatnt.
Several tis she passed by Gu Sheng’s place, she would deliberately stand at the door for a while, hoping to catch a glimpse of him.
But Gu Sheng was nowhere to be seen, as if he was deliberately avoiding her.
Though she was in a cold war with Gu Sheng, the Gu Family has beco more and more lively lately as everyone was happy about Gu Li’s wedding.
The bride’s family had visited the Gu Family several tis, and Gu Yao once t the future sister-in-law, a very gentle and graceful person.
