Gu You looked at the hand he was holding, and a warm feeling spread through her heart. Although Bai Liyan said that being with her was sothing from a long ti ago, he rarely took the initiative to hold her hand.
Bai Liyan, who was being looked at with a complex expression by Gu You, glanced at her calmly and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
"Anything is fine." Gu You said, "I don’t have any preferences."
She’s not picky about food and usually lets him decide. Bai Liyan took her to a restaurant with a nice atmosphere.
"Bai Liyan." While they were sitting by the window and eating, Gu You called his na seriously.
Bai Liyan was looking at the nu and responded when he heard her, "What is it?"
He quickly finished ordering the food and didn’t hear her say anything more, so he fixed his gaze on her, "What do you want to say now?"
"Nothing." Gu You just thought he seed too gentle, and wanted to ask him if he really liked her.
But then she felt it wasn’t possible.
If he liked her, how could he not show any signs?
Besides, the one he probably liked in his heart was Ji Yunhuan.
"Then why did you call ?" Bai Liyan could tell she had sothing to say.
Gu You smiled, "Can’t I just call you for fun?"
At first, when she got close to him, she didn’t have any deep expectations for their relationship. She always felt that a man as outstanding as Bai Liyan wouldn’t belong to her.
But now, she couldn’t help but imagine that Bai Liyan would fall in love with her, deeply and profoundly.
Bai Liyan said, "If you have sothing to say, just say it directly, no need to be polite."
In front of him, it seed Gu You had never really been polite anyway.
Gu You laughed and said, "When have I ever been polite with you?"
"If you don’t want to say it, then forget it." Bai Liyan didn’t have the habit of pressing her for answers.
He just knew that during the al, Gu You kept staring at him.
Every ti he looked at her, she guiltily shifted her gaze away.
He looked at the girl in front of him and found that she seed different from when he first t her.
Even when Gu You had confidently declared she would make him like her, she didn’t have this shy deanor. Now, on the other hand...
"Gu You, you like now, don’t you?" Gu You was eating when she suddenly heard Bai Liyan say this. She felt it was baffling and looked at him confused, "I’ve always liked you! This isn’t new to you."
"Before, you were just saying it casually." Back then, it felt more like a joke, not real feelings for him.
Being exposed, a hint of embarrassnt appeared on Gu You’s face, "Yes, it was casual talk, but I don’t like you now either! Why are you so narcissistic?"
"..." Bai Liyan laughed.
Even he might not have realized that he had beco much gentler when facing Gu You.
He smiled more than before.
When he first t Gu You, she would often be there joking around by herself, and he would only belatedly respond.
When they left the restaurant, it started to rain. Gu You stood at the door, "It’s raining! What should we do?"
"So what if it’s raining?" A nearby server had already proactively handed them an umbrella.
Gu You said, "I waited for you for a long ti at the research institute today. I was planning to go to many places with you."
"Have you finished your draft?" Bai Liyan asked.
Gu You shook her head, "No. But it’s my birthday today; I don’t feel like working. Can’t I give myself a day off?"
"Your editor will be hounding you again." Bai Liyan looked at her sympathetically, "Can’t you be a little more conscientious?"
"I really can’t." Gu You said regretfully, "Every ti until the last minute, I don’t feel like finishing my work."
"..." Bai Liyan, who always did things with a plan, couldn’t understand won like Gu You at all, "You’re really sothing."
"You’re scolding again!" Gu You protested.
Bai Liyan had already opened the umbrella, "Alright, let’s go."
As they left the restaurant, Gu You took the initiative to hold onto Bai Liyan’s arm.
Bai Liyan glanced down at her.
If she had tried to get close to him before, he would have felt uncomfortable all over. But now, he seed to have gotten used to this little girl clinging to him.
Since it was raining, he didn’t take Gu You out to play; instead, he took her straight ho.
"Well, I’m going then." Gu You opened the car door, using her bag to cover her head, ready to run upstairs.
"Wait for ." She had just reached downstairs when she heard Bai Liyan’s voice.
Bai Liyan followed her pace with an umbrella.
The rain wasn’t heavy. He strode over to her, and the scene before her looked like a beautiful picture from a fairy tale.
Seeing this scene, Gu You felt her heart start to flutter restlessly.
Bai Liyan had already walked up to her and said, "I’ll accompany you up."
Because before this, Bai Liyan would always drop her off downstairs and leave, so his sudden offer to co up made Gu You a little unused to it. She looked at Bai Liyan worriedly, "But I forgot to clean before I left today."
Letting Bai Liyan see her ssy ho, he’d definitely tease her.
Upon hearing this, Bai Liyan chuckled, "As a girl, can’t you keep your place tidier when you’re free?"
Gu You pouted, "But whenever I tidy up, you don’t co over!"
She didn’t look at Bai Liyan, just felt her heart pounding.
When they reached the elevator, neither of them spoke. Only his umbrella was still dripping with rainwater...
Gu You walked ahead and opened the door, with Bai Liyan following her inside. The house was indeed a bit ssy, but to average people, it was still passable, though Bai Liyan tended to be picky.
Gu You knew what he was like, so she quickly tidied up.
She clearly wasn’t very gifted at cleaning, and watching her make an even bigger ss, Bai Liyan was exasperated.
"Let help you!" He said, walking over and effortlessly putting things in their places, making the whole room look tidy again.
Gu You stood to the side, impressed by a man so proficient at tidying up, "Bai Liyan, whoever marries you will really be lucky."
"..." Bai Liyan looked up at the only woman likely to marry him. Gu You was standing by the window, her back against it, drinking milk she had just taken from the fridge while he tidied up.
Bai Liyan walked toward her.
Here he cos again...
Since seeing him approach from downstairs just now, Bai Liyan had beco two levels more handso in Gu You’s eyes. Now, every ti he got close, she felt weak in the knees.
Bai Liyan stopped in front of her, and Gu You, her big eyes staring at him, her hands gripping the milk, looked dazed.
Bai Liyan leaned toward her...
