"Didn’t see Gu You today." Auntie said a bit regretfully.
"She already ca by, but you weren’t awake then, so she left." Ji Yunhuan recalled that Gu You wasn’t too happy when she left, seemingly having had a tiff with Bai Liyan. She might not co by for a while.
Bai Liyan and Qi Cheng were both outside, and Auntie called out, "Liyan, co in for a mont."
Bai Liyan heard the voice, pushed the door open, and walked in, looking at his mother, "Mom."
"Where’s Gu You? Call her over, I want to see her." Auntie seed very fond of Gu You.
Ji Yunhuan was a bit surprised. She thought Bai Liyan and Gu You hadn’t progressed so quickly. But now it seed, Auntie already knew about their relationship. She smiled and said, "Looks like Auntie is quite familiar with Gu You! I guess it won’t be long before Bai Liyan gets married, huh?"
Auntie said, "Gu You is the first girl Liyan has brought ho. If Liyan is willing to marry her, I naturally have no objections."
Bai Liyan felt quite frustrated as the two talked, completely ignoring him.
Not knowing how to say that Gu You wasn’t available at the mont, he had no choice but to leave.
He recalled that he had bullied Gu You to tears before she left.
Bai Liyan thought that if he went to find her now, she might not co.
However, to make his mother happy, he still went aside and called Gu You.
As expected, Gu You didn’t answer.
The call was deliberately hung up, and Bai Liyan frowned.
Gu You really was angry!
Watching him walk downstairs, Qi Cheng asked, "Where are you going?"
"To find soone."
Gu You rented an apartnt in C City, and Bai Liyan knew where she lived, so he went to look for her.
She was a painter and spent most of her ti at ho rushing through her work.
At Gu You’s rented apartnt door, Bai Liyan knocked, but there was no response. He took the key from under a flowerpot nearby, unlocked the door, and went in.
Just after changing shoes and entering the living room, he saw Gu You sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window, hugging her knees, her head resting on them, looking very sad, her long hair hanging down.
The phone was right next to her; she had heard his call but deliberately hung up.
Bai Liyan stood at the door, rembering what he had done to her today, feeling sowhat guilty.
Gu You hadn’t provoked him, and his actions were indeed a bit too much, and they offended her.
He walked over and looked at her squatting on the floor, "Gu You."
Her shoulders shook slightly at his voice, but she didn’t look up.
Bai Liyan squatted down, "Today’s incident was all my fault. I’m very sorry."
His voice was gentle, and Gu You looked up at him, her eyes red, "What are you here for?"
"Why are you crying?" Bai Liyan didn’t answer her question but expressed concern for her reddened eyes.
Even if she disliked him touching her, he hadn’t touched her in the end!
Gu You bit her lip, feeling rather embarrassed herself.
She looked at Bai Liyan and deceived herself, saying, "I’m not crying."
"Who are you trying to fool?" Crying like this and saying you’re not?
Gu You looked at Bai Liyan and wiped her tears.
She didn’t understand why, even though Bai Liyan eventually let her go, she still felt so upset.
Bai Liyan said, "I’ve apologized for what happened today. Are you still mad at ?"
Gu You whimpered slightly, "I just feel that you’re not how I imagined."
"How am I different?"
"Why do n always want to do those things when they see won? You don’t like at all but still touched . You don’t understand love at all." She was only twenty-one, naively believing that there could be a Platonic love between n and won.
Bai Liyan sat down on the floor, looking at Gu You, and couldn’t help but laugh. He always thought Gu You was very mature. Now he realized how naive she was, "You’re discussing love with a thirty-year-old man?"
"..." His words made Gu You very frustrated. "Does being a thirty-year-old man an you can’t love soone? Does being thirty an you can disrespect others?"
"When have I ever disrespected you?" Bai Liyan said, "You told yourself that you liked and wanted to be with . Touching you, isn’t that my right?"
So, is it not okay for him to touch his own woman?
What kind of logic is that?
Gu You was confused by Bai Liyan’s words.
She lowered her head, "I just don’t like this kind of love. I thought liking soone ant caring for her, spoiling her, wanting to see her happy, absolutely not forcing her to do what she doesn’t want to do. Would you treat the woman you love that way too?"
"..." Gu You’s words made Bai Liyan feel suffocated, making him stop.
Gu You said, "Would you do such things to her at such tis? No, right? So, you don’t love at all!"
Bai Liyan never thought he loved Gu You as deeply as Ji Yunhuan.
He indeed couldn’t bear to touch Ji Yunhuan.
Ji Yunhuan was like a flower asleep in his heart; he couldn’t bear to violate her, didn’t dare to act recklessly, afraid of hurting her.
But towards Gu You, he didn’t have that feeling at all.
Although Gu You could sotis make him temporarily forget Ji Yunhuan, allowing him a mont of ease, he didn’t love her that much. Consequently, he didn’t care if his actions might hurt Gu You.
However, this was not the ti to discuss this; he had other intentions. Bai Liyan looked at Gu You, "My mom is awake and wants you to co over."
Hearing Auntie ntioned, Gu You cald down a little, "Oh."
Bai Liyan was surprised that even when she was mad at him, she still cared about seeing his mother.
He said, "Go! Don’t keep her waiting too long. I’ve apologized to you, so don’t be upset about this."
Gu You stood up. She went to the Bai Family Residence originally just to see Auntie, but Bai Liyan had ruined her mood.
She stood up and found a coat from nearby.
"Not washing your face?" Bai Liyan saw she was about to go out just like that and couldn’t help reminding her.
Gu You then rembered how embarrassing she looked.
She went into the bathroom, Bai Liyan followed in, looking at the sowhat ssy bathroom and found it speechless, "Gu You."
"What?" Gu You asked while washing her face.
The sadness in her voice was still audible.
"Are you a woman?" Bai Liyan’s voice ca over, and Gu You, angry, stopped what she was doing, glared at him, and shouted like a machine gun, "How am I not a woman? How am I not a woman? If I weren’t a woman, would you have taken advantage of today?"
Just thinking about it nearly broke her heart with sadness.
Bai Liyan said ashadly, "I just wanted to ask if you knew how ssy your room is?"
Both the living room outside and here were in a state of disarray.
It was evident how casual she usually was.
Gu You felt extrely embarrassed after what he said. After washing her face, she quickly tidied up the things on the sink.
