"How about it? Want to go again?" Gu Yao asked with a smile.
"No, that’s my limit. Going again would be fatal."
"Haha."
"You’re sitting there and not feeling uncomfortable at all?" Ais thought this was totally unfair.
"Not uncomfortable, it’s pretty fun, just the wind is quite strong."
It was already dusk, and in the autumn of November, besides being a bit cold, the wind was particularly strong.
Ais, who needed soone to support him just to walk, imdiately took off his thin jacket and draped it over Gu Yao upon hearing her.
"I’m not cold." Gu Yao tried to return the jacket, but Ais pressed down on her shoulder.
"Keep it on, you might catch a cold."
"But I think you’re more likely to catch a cold now, since you’re feeling sick and dizzy, it’s easy to catch a chill."
"I’m a man, not so easy to catch a cold."
"Is that so? The cold dicine you picked up at the First People’s Hospital a few days ago probably isn’t finished yet, right?" Gu Yao winked at him, rudely reminding him.
"Uh... finished it."
"Haha."
"..."
Gu Yao stopped laughing and proactively held Ais’s arm: "Let’s go grab sothing to eat. You’ve thrown up so many tis, your stomach must be empty."
In the following days, the two were always together. Ais was very strategic, never expressing his feelings for Gu Yao, or even showing them much. Every ti his behavior was just right, and he occasionally played a "Shangguan Yu possession" to win Gu Yao’s favor.
And his asured pursuit made Gu Yao feel no pressure at all; sotis she even felt she was overthinking things, that Ais just wanted to be friends.
In Gu Yao’s limited mories, the nearly ten days spent with Ais were the days she laughed the most, even more than the warm days spent with Gu Sheng in the United Kingdom.
During these ten days, she didn’t think about Gu Sheng, nor did she think about Shangguan Yu. Free from the entanglents of family and romantic affection, she truly felt carefree.
Soon, the day of Gu Li’s wedding arrived.
This ant that Gu Sheng, who had been missing for over ten days, would appear, and she might even see people from the Shangguan Family.
Gu Yao, who had been going to bed early these days, finally had insomnia that night.
Almost every five minutes, she would pick up her phone to check the ti.
Finally, unable to sleep and feeling uncomfortable no matter how she lay, Gu Yao simply started playing with her phone.
However, not playing gas, not fond of entertainnt gossip, and without any friends to chat with on WeChat, she held her phone not knowing what to do.
She tried sending a ssage to Ais, thinking he’d be asleep, but unexpectedly, he replied instantly.
"Why aren’t you asleep yet?"
Seeing Ais’s reply, Gu Yao directly stated the reason for her insomnia.
After these few days of being together, Gu Yao completely regarded Ais as a friend.
Ais didn’t try to counsel her, nor ca up with any way to help her ease things with Gu Sheng. He simply offered a comforting word, then chatted with her about all sorts of random topics and interesting stories, helping Gu Yao pass this difficult night.
Others staying awake that night were far more than just the two of them.
By noon the next day,
Wen Xiao’ai, who had been dreaming all night, was woken up by Jun Moyan.
"Brother Gu’s getting married? Tying the knot? Marrying a bride?"
Upon hearing this news, Wen Xiao’ai was fully focused on the word marriage. Her deep blue eyes were full of excitent, one might even think she’s the bride-to-be.
"Yeah, the Gu Family sent an invitation. The wedding is at 3 PM, we have to go."
"Go, go, absolutely we must go."
