"Prepare the information and go to the Civil Affairs Bureau at nine o'clock tomorrow."

Gu Nanxi watched the two old men bluffingly go upstairs, glanced at the woman sitting there who looked a little confused, and said with raised lips.

"Um?"

She hummed with confusion on her face, and slowly realized it. She wasn't too excited, and looked at him with a bit of doubt in her eyes.

"Are you proposing to me?"

A shallow dimple is revealed on the side of the face, which is particularly dazzling.

Gu Nanxi looked back at her with burning eyes and did not answer.

"Then you love me?"

She still had the same look as before, with a crooked smile on her face, red lips and white teeth.

Gu Nanxi was inexplicably asked this question by her. Looking at the smile on her face, panic flashed in her dark eyes, but she did not answer.

Chen Sina sighed bitterly in her heart. She had known about such a marriage for a long time. Her smile gradually faded away, and she looked at him with a slightly stubborn look that refused to admit defeat:

"I like you, maybe it's just my unilateral wish; but, liking doesn't mean marriage."

Gu Nanxi's heart twitched inexplicably when he saw the hurt in her eyes.

----

For dinner, two old people, Gu Nanxi, and Chen Sina shared a table for four. Chen Sina even doubted that this was all arranged. Why did the nanny come back here to cook on time?

But after seeing Mr. Gu's expression softly moaning in pain, she still suppressed this suspicion in her heart.

During the entire meal, she did not take the initiative to speak to Gu Nanxi, and was so stingy that she did not even glance at him. However, she was very considerate of him, helping him with small gestures such as serving rice and picking up vegetables.

Mrs. Gu sensed that the atmosphere between the two was abnormal and tried to ease the relationship, but the result was even more serious.

Like just now:

"Nan Xi, how can you pick up some food for Nana? You won't hurt your wife at all."

Just as Gu Nanxi's chopsticks were about to fall into her bowl, Chen Sina picked them up and said with a smile:

"I recently changed my taste and don't want to eat this."

Gu Nanxi took back his chopsticks stiffly and glanced at her deeply. The latter continued to eat with a calm expression. He clearly felt her resistance to him, and she turned a blind eye to him after the topic was discussed.

Is it that important that he loves her?

He is willing to give her a marriage, isn't that enough?

Change the taste?

Do you want to change his dish? His dark eyes were half-squinted, looking at the woman enjoying her dinner with a dangerous light.

"Grandpa, grandma, I'm a little tired. I'm going back to my room to rest first."

After eating, I watched the nanny packing her things. It was obvious that she didn't need to do anything. She greeted the two elderly people with a smile and went upstairs.

Gu Nanxi sat there with a gloomy handsome face. He was directly ignored.

----

"Nan Xi, did you make her angry somewhere? That's not what we wanted when we came here."

Watching Qianying go upstairs, Mrs. Gu complained dissatisfiedly to her grandson. She knew his temper better than anyone else. He always looked coldly at others, his temper was unstable, and he could choke you to death with just one sentence.

Gu Nanxi held his forehead and rubbed his temples.

"Women are bound to feel pain. If you look at others with a cold face every day, everyone will get tired of it. Don't say I didn't tell you. If this granddaughter-in-law is gone, I will worry about you."

Gu Nanxi glanced at the old man with endless waves, leaving her with a cold back.

"Old man, do you think there is something wrong with your grandson?"

"Isn't he your grandson?"

"..."

----

tuk tuk tuk

"Sleep!"

Chen Sina yelled at the door, and the knocking on the door decisively stopped.

"Open the door!"

Gu Nanxi's forbearing voice came from the door. Based on her understanding of him after spending time with him, she knew that this was a sign that he was going to get angry.

"They said I was asleep, why did I open the door?"

After saying something in a bad temper, she turned off the light, covered herself with quilt, and closed her eyes.

Gu Nanxi looked at the crack in the door, which suddenly became dark, and her dark eyes tightened. She was avoiding him on purpose.

Listening to the sound of him leaving, Chen Sina stretched her head out from the quilt and found that tears were streaming down her face, and she could taste a bitter taste on the tip of her tongue.

Just like how this unrequited love made her feel.

----

Under the dim light, the hesitation in her blurred eyes was like that erratic phantom, without any measure. Wei Lan sighed as she looked at the person who called her over to the bar as soon as she called her in the middle of the night.

"Did you call me to the bar just to see you look like this?"

Chen Sina looked sad and did not answer.

"I said you are too cowardly. It has been so long and you still haven't subdued that man. Instead, you let him lead you by the nose."

"Yeah, why am I so cowardly? Even when he asked me to get the certificate, I knew he didn't love me, but I was actually moved."

Chen Sina pursed her lips, with a sad look on her face.

"Ah? Are you getting married?"

Weilan only grasped the word "get a certificate" and couldn't help but raise her voice and ask.

"Fuck you, you're still teasing me. Didn't you see the words "I'm very sad" written on my face?" She rolled her eyes at Wei Lan, her gaze swept across the busy bar, her eyes unfocused.

Unspeakable hesitation.

"Stop talking, I'm going to the bathroom first. You wait for me here." She calmed down her emotions and walked towards the bathroom.

When she came back, she saw Shao Yue sitting next to Wei Lan. Her heart trembled. Why was he here? Did Gu Nanxi also know that she came out in the middle of the night? In the blink of an eye, she shrugged. She had no intention of going back in the first place.

She believed that after she left, the Gu family would arrange for someone to take care of him.

She needs someone to think quietly and sort out her relationship with him.

"Sister-in-law-to-be, why are you here?"

Shao Yue looked at her who was standing there with an absent look on her face.

Chen Sina smiled slightly awkwardly, but the words "quasi-sister-in-law" only made her heart sadder.

"Uh...", she calmed down and looked at Shao Yue:

"In the future, please don't let my sister-in-law call me that. Just call me Xiaona. Well, you guys can chat, and I'll go back first."

After saying that, she ignored Shao Yue's expression and instead raised her eyebrows at Wei Lan, as if to say that she no longer wanted to be this blinding light bulb.

----

As soon as he walked to the door of the bar, his steps seemed to have taken root and he could not move. The man who had just got off the black Land Rover wore a white striped shirt with a pair of navy blue slim trousers, shiny black leather shoes on his feet, and his hands

There was a gray woolen coat lying on the bed. He seemed to feel the gaze from this side, holding his hand on the car door and looking this way.

"Are you willing to go back?"

Looking at the condescending man, whose deep eyes revealed her unseen gaze, her eyes fell on his injured arms and legs.

"alright?"

she asked suspiciously.

"It was nothing serious in the first place, the doctor was just exaggerating."

Gu Nanxi's expression was indifferent, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips. Chen Sina suddenly felt a warmth in her hands. His slender fingers reached between her fingers with a familiar path. With a tight squeeze, this kind of

The sudden intimacy made her stunned.

She has not forgotten what they talked about during the day. If he doesn't love her, what's the point of doing all this now?

"Gu Nanxi, I'm tired and want to go back to the dormitory and have a good rest."

She moved her hands, trying to pull out, but he held her tighter and tighter. She looked at him slightly tiredly, her eyes searching:

"Do you know that it is easy for others to misunderstand you as you are now?"

Gu Nanxi looked at her silently for a few seconds, then Chen Sina fell into a hug, and the familiar masculine smell disturbed her mood.

"I send you!"

He whispered in her ear, without anger, impatience, or rejection. This kind of him made her feel a little strange.
