"Do you know what it’s like to like soone?" Gu Xiaoxi asked, tilting her head.
Bai Yaxuan lowered his head in thought for a mont, then fixed his gaze steadily on Gu Xiaoxi. "It’s wanting to live with her, watching her be happy, then raising a bunch of kids together and spending a lifeti by her side."
"You’re thinking too far ahead," Gu Xiaoxi took a breath and continued, "I think in one’s life, you’ll et many people you like. And the person whose personality matches well with yours and who just happens to have fate on their side can stay together for a lifeti."
Was she implying sothing? Bai Yaxuan chuckled and said, "Are you suggesting that you’re just a passerby in my life?"
"Isn’t that the case? Without , you’ll eventually find soone you like, and by then, I’ll be insignificant in your heart." Gu Xiaoxi coughed and went on, "Besides, your feelings for are just an obsession, not real liking."
Upon hearing this, Bai Yaxuan couldn’t help but curve his lips into a smile, "Then how can you be sure it’s not ’liking’?"
Embarrassing!
Back to this question again.
"But I don’t..." love you!
So things, even if embarrassing, must be made clear. And it would be best if she and Bai Yaxuan could reconcile.
However, before she could finish, Bai Yaxuan reached out and covered her lips with his hand. "I know what you want to say, I was wrong before. I was too busy with work to spend ti with you. Give another chance now, we can do what ordinary couples do, walk the streets, do most of the things that lovers do."
Gu Xiaoxi looked at the man so close in front of her, deflated like a balloon, "Do you an what you say? If it turns out we’re not suitable, can you let go?"
...
Bai Yaxuan dropped his hand, the tips of his fingers still retaining her faint warmth.
"If we can live together peacefully for a while and it still doesn’t work out, let’s call it quits!" Bai Yaxuan thought. He was not the type to be unreasonable.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded in understanding after hearing this, "Alright, your word is your bond. I’ll trust you one more ti, but if you deceive again, we won’t even be friends for life."
Bai Yaxuan extended his pinky and said resolutely, "Your word is your bond!"
Afterward, the two linked pinkies as a sign of reconciliation.
"What do you want to do now?" Bai Yaxuan asked.
"Let’s go ho! You’ve had quite a bit to drink; you should rest early once we get back." What Gu Xiaoxi feared most was being recognized on the street or encountering other troubleso matters.
Without saying much, Bai Yaxuan and she walked around the streets, just managing to bypass the traffic jam, and headed straight back to the Presidential Mansion.
Gu Xiaoxi returned to her room and turned on the computer.
In over a year, she had beco intimately familiar with the operations of the Gu Family. It could be said that even if she inherited her shares and joined the managent of the company, it would not pose a problem.
But for the ti being, she had no desire to get involved.
During this year, Gu Hua seed to have also accepted her and Mi Xi’s presence.
In the company, he no longer treated Mi Xi as a pawn. After all, the ten percent of the shares she had transferred were not just a re check.
In the past year, she had tried hard to distance herself from Bai Yaxuan’s circle, but no matter how hard she tried, it ultimately didn’t work out.
Since that approach was ineffective,
She was willing to swim against the current, confront Bai Yaxuan directly, open up his heart, and walk her own path. Choose her own life.
There were nurous docunts on the computer.
They were all information she had collected covertly about Bai Yaxuan and the people under him.
These items may seem trivial, but if they got into the hands of soone with intent, they could cause irreversible harm to Bai Yaxuan.
If one day, they cannot reconcile, she would have no choice but to use this information as leverage against him.
Just as he had deceived her in the beginning, she could threaten him rcilessly as well.
