Capítulo 557: Extra Gu Yijing_2
Gu Yijing froze for a mont and instinctively touched his pocket.
——His wallet was still there.
He breathed a sigh of relief, thankful it wasn’t a thief.
——Mistaking soone for a thief at first sight, there probably isn’t a less romantic way to et in this world.
“What did you say, sis?” Gu Yijing raised an eyebrow at Qiao Shan.
“Blind date.” Qiao Shan said earnestly, “You don’t fancy the famous ladies from the Mainland, and I thought since we’re rarely in Hong Kong, we can’t miss this opportunity.”
Gu Yijing didn’t actually dislike blind dates, but turning a nice outing into a blind date…
Qiao Shan didn’t care about how he felt, “I’ve already talked with them. In the next few days, I’ll et one each day. They’re all very excellent ladies, and two of them are even exemplary entrepreneurs.”
Although Gu Yijing wasn’t opposed to blind dating, to be honest, he didn’t really expect to find his true love through blind dating.
But as it turned out, there are tis when you shouldn’t speak too soon.
Wei Lan wasn’t a traditional beauty; if anything, she had a sort of androgynous beauty. She was almost thirty but looked just over twenty. However, while his sister-in-law had a baby face due to her facial features, Wei Lan appeared younger due to her slim figure and naturally youthful face.
As a fashion designer, Wei Lan naturally had a good sense of style, but Gu Yijing found that, as a well-known designer, she lacked corresponding social skills. It could even be said that she was surprisingly naïve, as if everything outside of design was of little consequence to her.
Yet, it was this very Wei Lan that made Gu Yijing want to give it a try.
He initially thought it would be difficult for soone as “naïvely uninford about the world” as Wei Lan to develop the sa feelings for him, but he found just maintaining a model-like physique and an eye-catching appearance was enough to attract her gaze.
Gu Yijing’s personality was rebellious and untad, yet he chose law, a field requiring precision, which after many years of work, added a contradictory yet extrely attractive charm to him.
Like a perfect blend of asceticism and wildness, he had a very unique aura.
And it was this uniqueness that always inspired Wei Lan endlessly.
Despite seeming clueless about romance most of the ti, Wei Lan had studied abroad and was much more open than people from back ho, often impulsively throwing herself into his arms when emotional.
Despite this, Gu Yijing always felt at a loss how to proceed with her. She agreed to be his girlfriend, was willing to date him, often designed clothes for him, was willing to kiss him, and even willing to go to bed with him.
But he could never be sure of his feelings for her.
Because of this, both sets of parents kept urging them to get married, but he was always hesitant to propose.
So much so that when Wei Lan produced a ring and proposed to him, Gu Yijing had no idea what expression to make.
“Do you… like ?” Gu Yijing had always wanted to ask this question but refrained due to male pride, until that mont.
“Of course.” Wei Lan blinked, saying as if it was the most obvious thing.
She wondered, “If I didn’t like you, I would have refused to contact you during the blind date.”
“So you’re saying you fell for during the blind date?” Gu Yijing frowned as he asked.
Wei Lan nodded simply, “It was love at first sight.”
Gu Yijing was stunned. What had he been agonizing over all this ti?
“Are you going to answer or not?” Just then, Wei Lan pressed him for an answer.
“This ti doesn’t count.” Gu Yijing grabbed her shoulders, “Proposing is sothing a man should do. You can’t steal that from .”
“But I’ve already bought the ring, set up fireworks, arranged roses and candles. Wouldn’t it be a waste if we don’t count it?”
The more Gu Yijing heard, the more frustrated he beca. Shouldn’t he have done all that?
“Alright, let’s just go have dinner; I’m hungry.”
“I booked a restaurant. Should we go have a candlelit dinner?”
“…No, I want hotpot.”
“Why? My money would be wasted then.”
“Tonight is not suitable for a candlelit dinner.”
Gu Yijing was internally devastated. What should he do if his girlfriend suddenly made leaps in emotional intelligence?
Despite his desire to keep this quiet, his family ended up knowing about it.
“So you really let Wei Lan propose to you?” Han Yiheng couldn’t help but grin.
“…Where did you hear that rumor?” Gu Yijing denied fervently.
Han Yiheng coughed lightly, “Wei Lan told mom and dad, and she complained that you wouldn’t accept her proposal.”
Shen Yisi and Shen Yiqiao also heard about it and ca to tease him. As for other family mbers, though they didn’t say anything, the amusent in their eyes when they looked at him was evident.
Gu Yijing was speechless, but even more determined to plan a proper proposal to regain his lost face.
Of course, Gu Yijing eventually got his wish.
But whether he managed to regain his face, that’s another story. Because it was only after getting married that Gu Yijing realized his wife, usually quiet and unassuming, at critical monts employed romantic tactics that he simply couldn’t match!
Years later—
“Daddy, grandma said that mommy was the one who proposed to you initially?”
“Your grandma is pulling your leg.”
“Grandma also said that the restaurant and candlelit dinner for your first anniversary were also arranged by mommy?”
“…You must have misheard.”
“Aunt said that mommy designed a couple’s outfit for you for Valentine’s Day and you forgot Valentine’s Day?”
“…I was busy, okay? Let’s stop discussing this. Where’s your mom?”
“She said your fifteenth wedding anniversary is coming up, and she’s planning a surprise for you.”
