She hurriedly put on her shoes and said, "No need to trouble yourself further, I’ll just grab sothing to eat."
Gu Lili ran to the kitchen and ca out with a tray within two or three minutes, with cake, milk, lychee, and peaches on it.
Sitting cross-legged on the sofa, she ate while telling him about what happened tonight at the university.
Long Yubei quietly listened by her side. After she finished, he closed the book he was reading and set it aside. "Why did that male student snatch your head covering?"
"He just wanted to see what I look like with long hair; is it that hard to guess?"
"A male student who makes such a move and has such thoughts... It seems you’ve attracted his attention."
Gu Lili was incredulous, "That can’t be..."
"What to do." He reached out and touched her head. "You’re so outstanding; what if you surpass and don’t look up to anymore?"
"I don’t believe you’re really worried about that." She peeled a lychee and brought it to his mouth, and Long Yubei cooperated by eating it.
"Why don’t you believe it?"
"Because you don’t love . Only when you deeply love soone do you fear losing them."
He didn’t argue and just watched her eat.
After Gu Lili had her fill, they went upstairs together to wash up.
Unable to sleep, she suggested watching a movie, and he agreed.
"What movie do you want to watch?"
"A romance film."
Long Yubei took the remote and browsed the selection, just as a movie starring Liang He ca on.
"Let’s watch Liang He’s movie."
Long Yubei expressed disdain, "I’m sick of seeing his face in real life, and now you want to watch him on screen?"
"I’m not tired of it; I think Liang He is quite handso."
"So who’s more handso, him or ?"
This kind of choice...
Gu Lili hugged his arm, resting her head on his shoulder, "You two have different kinds of handsoness. You’re usually cool and detached, while Liang Bao is warr and springlike."
"I’m cool and detached?" He wasn’t satisfied with her response. "Am I not like the words you used for Liang in front of you?!"
"Didn’t I say usually? If you were always stone-faced in front of , how could I stand being with you? I’m looking for a husband, not an ice block."
He pressed play, and the two began watching the movie.
When the female lead appeared on screen, Gu Lili hurriedly asked, "What’s the na of this actress?"
"Sun Qianqian, a popular actress, under the sa agency as Liang He."
"She looks pretty good."
"Just alright."
Gu Lili pursed her lips and smiled, "Husband, do you think with my looks, I could be a star?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"The wife of Long Yubei cannot be a star. I don’t like other n touching even a finger on you."
"I didn’t say I wanted to, I was just asking if, with my looks, I could make it in the entertainnt circle."
Long Yubei kissed her on the forehead, "Naturally you could, but even if you had that idea, I’d snuff it out in the cradle."
"I don’t have such thoughts."
The beginning of the movie was quite cheerful, but the further they watched, the sadder it beca, culminating in the male lead’s death at the end.
Gu Lili beca imrsed in the film and completely broke down crying.
Long Yubei was at a loss, "Lili, this is fake; it’s just a movie..."
"You think... I don’t know it’s a movie?" She sobbed even harder, "But I just feel so sad for the characters in the movie, Liang He brought the character to life, I feel like Liang He is him, that he is Liang He..."
Long Yubei imdiately called Liang He and started berating him, "What kind of damned movie did you act in, why does the male lead have to die?"
