Rong Xuan was silent for a moment after hearing those words.
Male protagonist, you’re so good at flirting, does the female protagonist know?
She lowered her eyes and wrote slowly on her own hand, ‘Like, what?’
When Gu Ye saw it, he pondered for a while, then replied, “Like what? Like what will I do? Don’t girls like to take pictures, shoot videos, go shopping, travel, and go to theme parks, then post it on Moments or Weibo? I can do all of this with you. If you have other requests, you can tell me.”
In fact, Gu Ye listed so much things but it could be simply summed up in three words.
In short it’s ‘display of affection’. This was something that most girls were passionate about doing, as if they wanted the whole world to know when they’re in a relationship and then let others turn into lemon essence, making them sour every day. Actually, this was understandable. Every girl has their own little thoughts, and Gu Ye didn’t think there’s anything wrong with it.
So he said it quite straightforwardly.
Although his and Rong Xuan’s situation was a bit unique. They weren’t in a romantic relationship in the traditional sense, but they’re engaged to each other. Rounding it up, they could also be considered to be in a relationship, right?
After listening, Rong Xuan was silent for another moment. Why was this plot development so different from what she expected?
Male protagonist, if you flirt like this, the female protagonist will be furious.
Thinking like this, she pursed her lips and slowly wrote on her hand, ‘I’m, different, from, most, girls’.
In Rong Xuan’s mind, she and Gu Ye were just a temporary engaged couple, different from others who were seriously in love.
So she actually didn’t have any demands for him and he didn’t need to be so serious. As soon as the time comes, the two of them would dissolve their relationship and go their separate ways. There would be no need to contact each other again.
But Gu Ye misunderstood Rong Xuan’s meaning.
Seeing Rong Xuan’s words, he interpreted it to mean that she didn’t want to do something ordinary, let alone follow the crowd.
What’s the point of doing something when everyone else had already done so?
After Gu Ye understood this on his own, he hesitantly asked, “So, you want me to do something unique with you?”
This was a bit difficult for Gu Ye. He didn’t know much about girls and he had never paid any attention to any girls before. He really had no idea what could be considered unique to girls. However, following the thinking of others that had done unique things, it didn’t sound as difficult anymore.
Gu Ye chuckled softly. “Little Bride, I didn’t expect you to be a small person but have a big heart.” As soon as she expressed herself, she wanted something unique.
Rong Xuan was actually not short. She’s 1.68 meters tall and had a well-proportioned and slim figure. However, this height was a full seventeen centimeters shorter than Gu Ye’s. It wasn’t unreasonable for him to say that she’s small.
Rong Xuan was stunned, wondering where Gu Ye was going with this. She’s a small person but has a big heart? What does he mean?
Gu Ye mulled it over and added, “But I promise.”
She was about to explain, but Sheng Shihao weakly interjected, “Boss, my dad is urging me to go home.”
Sheng Shihao successfully interrupted Rong Xuan’s explanation.
Gu Ye raised his chin and readily said, “Okay, you go back. See you tomorrow.”
“See you tomorrow, Boss.”
After Sheng Shihao voiced out that he was going home, the rest were ready to go home as well.
Hao Qiang shamelessly said, “Boss, can you give me a lift today?”
“Okay.”
Tong Yue and Mu Xiao were very self-conscious and hurriedly stated, “The two of us will take the bus back.”
Rong Xuan originally wanted to go with them, but Tong Yue and Mu Xiao didn’t wait for her at all. Tong Yue winked at Rong Xuan and pulled Mu Xiao away quickly. In this way, Rong Xuan could only be sent home by Gu Ye. There’s no particularly good opportunity to explain, so Rong Xuan simply didn’t bother.
As a salted fish, she didn’t want to do too much and just go with the flow.
———
After sending Rong Xuan home, Gu Ye also had to send Hao Qiang to his house.
Hao Qiang scratched the back of his head. “Boss, the one who badmouthed Little Sister-in-law today, should we teach her a lesson?”
Gu Ye’s gaze sank and he gave a faint hum.
———
At noon the next day, Rong Xuan heard some gossip from the class next door from her deskmate Tong Yue.
Their classes were like extensions of each other, so close that they’re inseparable. If there’s any gossip in one class, students in the other one would know about it. There’s no way to hide any secrets.
Tong Yue gloatingly said, “Xuanxuan, let me tell you, your half-sister Rong Yi and her friend were blocked in the bathroom by a female school bully today. This female school bully is very good at fighting but is even more powerful at swearing. There’s not a single curse word repeated throughout the whole process and both of them were scolded to tears.”
Every school had some trouble makers, both male and female. The school Rong Xuan was in naturally also had one. The female school bully in Tong Yue’s mouth was the legendary elder sister. She’s a student who specializes in sports. She’s tall, strong, and has muscles, looking very difficult to mess with. This person was quite famous among the students. Most people wouldn’t want to mess with this kind of person. They had a lot of time and were shameless. Messing with ordinary people was nothing to them.
After Tong Yue said so, she added with a smile, “You know, during the break, there were quite a lot of people in the bathroom. Someone recorded the whole thing and I asked her for a copy. Do you want to hear?”
Before Rong Xuan could answer, Tong Yue directly turned on the recording and played a short section of the cursing. It was only a short part but it was enough to amaze Rong Xuan.
She didn’t expect that someone could curse so fiercely and with such devastating power. The girl yelled loudly and spouted dirty words throughout the whole process. No wonder she could be a female school bully.
Not to mention Rong Yi and her friends, even if they were replaced with ordinary boys, they wouldn’t be able to take it.
Tong Yue played the recording for a while and then turned it off. She chuckled and said, “Look, after Rong Yi’s friend did something to you yesterday, today they were scolded so badly by the elder sister in front of so many people until they had no face left. I won’t believe that your fiancé didn’t have a hand on this.”
Rong Xuan naturally knew whose credit it was. Except for Gu Ye, no one else would help her like this.
Rong Yi’s friend scolded her yesterday so Gu Ye just returned the favor today. He had them treated as they treated her.
Tong Yue snorted, “They bullied you and now they have the taste of their own medicine. Tsk, tsk, those two, why do that in the first place.”
At this time, Mu Xiao put down her homework and turned around to join their conversation with great enthusiasm.
She acted like an elder. “That’s right, why do that in the first place.”
Mu Xiao met Rong Xuan’s fiancé for the first time yesterday and found that he was just like the male protagonist in a campus idol drama. He’s tall, rich and handsome, not to mention that he’s also very capable. Even if he’s in another school, he could still easily help his fiancée vent her anger.
Was there anything happier than being taken under a boy’s wing?
Mu Xiao’s eyes shone. “Xuanxuan, seeing you makes me believe in love again.”
Rong Xuan looked helpless after hearing this.
She and Gu Ye had only known each other for how long, where did the love come from? If it was so easy to develop love with the male protagonist, the female protagonist wouldn’t have to spend so much time opening his heart.
Rong Xuan guessed that Gu Ye might be feeling sympathetic towards her and thought she was pitiful and weak, so he wanted to help her.
But this emotion has nothing to do with love at all.
Rong Xuan took the pen and wanted to explain something on the paper, lest Mu Xiao and Tong Yue’s beautiful fantasy burst into pieces once she and Gu Ye break off their engagement, but the two of them were too busy counting Gu Ye’s strengths with great enthusiasm that they didn’t pay any attention to her.
Rong Xuan sighed and gave up her desire to explain.
———
On the way home from school, Rong Xuan noticed that Rong Yi beside her had a tense face the whole time. Her eyes were still a little red and it could be seen that she have been crying hard.
Sensing Rong Xuan’s gaze, Rong Yi said fiercely, “You won’t be proud for long!”
Today, the school’s female bully suddenly approached Rong Yi and her friend. There was no need to think about who did it.
Rong Yi could tolerate being scolded, but after knowing that it was Gu Ye who found someone to do so just to stand up for Rong Xuan, she really couldn’t bear it!
Her heart was almost broken by the person she like, but what if she couldn’t bear it?
If she dared do something to Rong Xuan right now, Gu Ye’s retaliation might come in the next second.
She didn’t dare to offend Gu Ye. However, she felt that Gu Ye would get tired of Rong Xuan sooner or later and dump her. When that moment came, it would be time for her to turn everything around.
At that time, Rong Xuan shouldn’t cry too hard.
Thinking like this, Rong Yi’s face finally looked a little better and less gloomy.
———
After having dinner peacefully in the evening, Rong Xuan went back to her room and checked out her Moments for a while.
During this period, her number of friends had grown to more than thirty.
There were the WeChat accounts of her classmates, as well as a few of Gu Ye’s friends. As long as one treats people sincerely, one would always make one or two friends.
As soon as she scrolled through her circle of friends, Gu Ye’s latest post appeared.
「Gu Ye: Mom’s dog. [Picture]」
The picture shows a Samoyed that looks so plump. It has a round body, snow-white hair, and its tail was dyed in three colors: red, blue, and yellow. It looks silly and cute.
After Rong Xuan saw the dog, she couldn’t hold back. With a slight movement of her fingers, she commented, 【Cute.】
After all, she was not much different from other girls, she also likes furry animals. Among all dog breeds, she likes the Samoyed the most with its gentle personality and well-behaved appearance.
After making her comment, Gu Ye quickly replied, “Little Bride, do you want to see it?”
Letting Rong Xuan see the dog at home wasn’t really his intention.
This post was also done by him on purpose. Normally, he wouldn’t post such boring stuff as he felt that it’s a complete waste of time.
However, he wanted an excuse to see her.
He just helped her vent her anger today, but after all, she and Rong Yi were half-sisters. They live under the same roof. Rong Yi had suffered such a big grievance by being scolded so miserably. He’s afraid Rong Yi would take her anger out on Rong Xuan.
So showing her the dog was a ploy. The truth was he wanted to see her.
