Chapter 50.2: Hehe Part 2

Names mentioned in this chapter :

-苏芮 (sù ruì) - Su Rui, our female protagonist

-顾煜城 (gù yù chéng)- Gu Yu Cheng, the male lead

"Yu Cheng?" Suddenly being restrained and feeling somewhat uncomfortable, Su Rui slightly frowned and called out to Gu Yu Cheng.

"Don't move." Gu Yu Cheng said with a bit of muffled restraint in his voice.

Understanding the meaning in between Gu Yu Cheng's words, Su Rui was first stunned and then her face flushed.

Just now, she was only focusing on talking, how did she forget about Gu Yu Cheng's situation at this moment...

She didn't felt that uh something shooting while uhh polishing earlier.[1] On the contrary, it was at this moment when her eyes met Gu Yu Cheng's eyes, that Su Rui suddenly felt embarrassed.

"Then, let go of me first." Su Rui murmured.

"Not now." Gu Yu Cheng said. After a pause, he added, "Wait a little longer."

The hot breath fell on Su Rui's face making her face heat up.

And there seems to be no tendency to 'calm down' at all.

"Don't look at me like that." Su Rui said, feeling somewhat uneasy.

She wants to create a distance between them, yet she couldn't move away. A certain someone is now like a slab of iron that can't be pushed.

"I can't endure it." Gu Yu Cheng said truthfully.

Su Rui: ...

Finally, while being stared at by Gu Yu Cheng, Su Rui withdrew her right hand from behind his neck and covered Gu Yu Cheng's eyes; blocking the line of sight between them.

As it was dark in front of him, Gu Yu Cheng's eyes moved slightly.

This kind of darkness could not actually calm his mind at the moment. On the contrary, it would only sharpen one's senses.

Feeling the softness of Su Rui's palm and sniffing the faint fragrance, Gu Yu Cheng's Adam apple slightly moved.

But, he didn't pull Su Rui's hands away nor did he tell her this fact.

"Gu Yu Cheng," she called out, as she looked at the man in front of her.

Su Rui rarely called him by name nowadays, but her tone at the moment wasn't distant, rather it has a tone of solemn and earnest instead.

"Hm? What's the matter?"

Through the slender and long fingers of Su Rui, a gleam of light seeped through, and a beam of light entered his eyes. It was actually uncomfortable, but right now, Gu Yu Cheng did not close his eyes.

"Why are you so good?" Su Rui couldn't help but lament.

Anyway, with or without that layer of girlfriend filter, she felt that the person in front of her is very good.

In her previous life, Su Rui actually had a desire for a family in the future, to be married, and to her other half.

She hoped to find a husband who shares the same three outlooks[2] as her, to be able to have mutual tolerance and support of one another, and both of them could start a family together.

Of course, it would be nice if he is exceptionally handsome.

And Gu Yu Cheng fulfilled almost all of the expectations she had for her ideal partner.

No, it should be said that he is better than what she had expected.

Hearing Su Rui's sudden lament, Gu Yu Cheng was a little thrilled, and a smile that couldn't be hidden was plastered on his face.

"Which parts of me are good?" As if not wanting to let go of this opportunity to gain great satisfaction, Gu Yu Cheng prodded.

"Everything about you is good."

She didn't care if the other party could see or not, she looked at Gu Yu Cheng, smiled and added, "Smart, steady, and also gentle... You have a sense of responsibility, and you are also patient...you are more successful than others on the things you do, and you are a lot more handsome than other people!"

There is one more crucial point.

Gu Yu Cheng is already wealthy, so they would not have to face the kind of problems between married couples where "men who start to become scumbags as soon as they become rich." Su Rui doesn't need to worry at all.

For those who aren't lacking money since birth like Gu Yu Cheng and have a high degree of economic and behavioural freedom. If he had wanted to become a scum, he would have done so earlier on in life, so why would he need to wait until now?

Hearing Su Rui's words, the smile on Gu Yu Cheng's face became even more profound.

Originally, Gu Yu Cheng wanted to put down Su Rui's hand, but he was stopped by Su Rui.

"That's all."

Who is she kidding? Although the words she just said were sincere, if she really were to say it in front of Gu Yu Cheng, Su Rui didn't think she could say it so calmly and candidly.

"Rui Rui."

"There is something that I have been thinking about recently..." Gu Yu Cheng suddenly spoke up with a hint of tension that he rarely had in his voice.

"Hm? What is it?"

"I want you to be my wife."

The author has something to say:

I've been busy at work today. Thanks for waiting~~

Hehe, I am happy being a little playful~ (But thinking about it, with Su Rui's personality, it won't be so quick~ Of course, it is not about being coy. It is because she has her own consideration. Other than being a theoretical empress, she actually has no experience.)

In some things one can be a little coy, revealing euphemism, not so direct. This is considered as a little wisdom of being together~

Wife~ Is Mr Gu 'speeding up his pace'? Haha~

Ps: In real life, two people living together will encounter a lot of big and small problems. This ranges from feeling tired of the person when it is too early, all the way to how one squeezes the toothpaste. If one really has to get along with another every day, some things can also be magnified by both parties making one feel they can't stand one another.
