Gu Lili stood up and walked to Gu Xichen, her bright and charming eyes eting his, "Before our engagent was called off, I followed my master’s words and saw you as soone I could rely on in the future. After the engagent was called off, I didn’t ask for my master’s permission to comply with your wish to break it off. I thought I could be completely unrelated to you, but it seems that my thoughts at each stage were different. Later, I thought, my master adopted , raised , taught to read, write, and practice martial arts. You are her only blood relative, and I believe, to her, both of us are the sa, people she loves. Then you changed your attitude towards , and I also decided to get along with you properly. You said that I am your only family, Xichen, too, you are my only family now. Do you understand what I’m saying?"
Gu Xichen looked into her eyes, how could he not understand her aning? She was only willing to be his family, but only as family.
"So, do you want to accept Antonio?"
At the ntion of his na, Antonio’s heart skipped a beat.
"No, I only have platonic feelings for Antonio, not romantic ones."
In that mont, she refused two outstanding n.
Jingsheng, who had been silently standing by, admired Gu Lili even more, because she knew what she wanted and what she didn’t.
"So, you two should stop thinking about and find your own true happiness."
"Transfer your household registration over," said Gu Xichen with a casual expression and one hand in his pocket, "as a sister."
"Okay," Gu Lili agreed.
"Gu Lili..." Although Antonio’s heart was aching, he was still smiling, "I will work hard to make you fall for , I absolutely won’t give up! Not even if I die!"
Without waiting for Gu Lili to respond, he walked away without looking back.
...
Gu Lili went with Gu Xichen to transfer her household registration.
Looking at her na in the household register, she handed it to Gu Xichen, "Keep it safe."
"What are you planning to do next?"
"Rest, properly rest," Gu Lili glanced at the ti, "I should go back now."
"Drive carefully."
"Okay."
When Gu Lili drove ho, as she approached the living room, she slled a fragrance.
She was surprised to see the dining table filled with a lot of dishes and several bottles of fine wine.
Then seeing Su Changzhi coming out from the kitchen, Gu Lili asked in shock, "Why did you cook so much?"
"To eat."
"It’s just the two of us; we can’t finish it all."
Su Changzhi’s eyebrows hinted at a smile, "It’s okay, I’m happy today."
Gu Lili’s tone brightened up, she picked up her chopsticks, sat down, and started eating, "Then tonight I have to eat more, can’t waste your hard work. Say, your cooking skills are so good, you must have cooked often before?"
"I never cooked before; I just started learning recently."
"That’s impressive." She opened a bottle of wine and filled glasses for both of them, "Here’s to us, to celebrate the start of my new life post-divorce."
Su Changzhi clinked glasses with her; they each took a big gulp.
"Why did you reject them both today? I can see their affection for you is genuine. Aren’t you afraid that you won’t et n who are more outstanding than them in the future?"
"I didn’t even want Long Yubei, let alone them. I don’t want to waste their ti. If they are willing to treat as family and a friend, we will continue to associate; if not, then let it be. I don’t want to settle in a relationship like this, because I know, if both parties are not willing, being together won’t make anyone happy. It’s better to maintain the current relationship, more comfortable and relaxed. Don’t you think so?"
