Chapter 155 Generous Girlfriend VS Poor Boyfriend 11

night.

Gu Xingyuan originally wanted to come back earlier, but something came up at the company and he ended up working overtime for a while.

When he came back, he was carrying a bouquet of roses in one hand and a bag of vegetables in the other, all of which were Jiang Zhiyi's favorite foods.

She was sitting cross-legged on the sofa watching TV.

"You weren't late this morning, were you?" he asked.

Jiang Zhiyi did not answer.

Gu Xingyuan put the things away, then walked up to her with the roses. "I bought you flowers."

Jiang Zhiyi pretended not to see it.

Gu Xingyuan put the flowers aside and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight? I just went to buy a lot of groceries. I even ran into the auntie who gave us scallions on New Year's Eve last time. She still remembered us and asked why you didn't come today. Let's go grocery shopping together next time."

Gu Xingyuan made all of this up himself. He no longer remembered what the old lady looked like, and he didn't go to the vegetable market there today.

Jiang Zhiyi still ignored his words.

"I'll go cook, wait for me." Gu Xingyuan forced a kiss on her.

What followed was a silent dinner.

After finishing her meal, Jiang Zhiyi washed up and went to bed without saying a word to Gu Xingyuan.

The next few days passed in this manner, with the two of them not exchanging a single word.

Of course, it was Jiang Zhiyi giving him the cold shoulder on her own, refusing to talk to him.

Gu Xingyuan felt a little helpless; she was really too hard to coax, and he didn't know what to do.

If she were still willing to argue with him like she did at the beginning, that would be fine, but her current attitude of ignoring him is making him feel agonized, and he can't stand this indifference.

He needs to find a way to communicate with her.

...

That morning, Gu Xingyuan left a sticky note on the dining table with several breakfast options written on it.

Jiang Zhiyi quickly found the note after she got up. She didn't want to pay attention to it, but she had been eating rice for breakfast for several days in a row and she was tired of it.

After hesitating for a moment, she still checked the box next to the second option on the sticky note, "Shrimp Wonton Noodles".

In short, she will not talk to him for the time being.

This was definitely not a compromise on her part, since she hadn't actually spoken to him; she had only put a checkmark on his face.

They communicated using sticky notes every day.

It started with a checkmark, then changed to drawing, and finally ended with a long string of text.

...

A few more days passed.

Gu Xingyuan noticed that her attitude was changing, and the two had almost returned to how they were before their argument. He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

One evening, they sat together watching TV; it was a modern romance movie.

The screen shows the wedding scene of the male and female protagonists. The wedding procession is very long and full of luxury cars, making for a spectacular scene.

Jiang Zhiyi was wiping away tears.

Gu Xingyuan immediately took action, wiping away her tears and saying, "True love will prevail in the end, and they will live happily ever after."

Jiang Zhiyi couldn't help but spoil the plot for him: "No, it's only halfway through. In the trailer, they get into a car accident on their way to pick up the bride. The male lead loses his memory and forgets the female lead. Then, less than half a year later, he cheats on her and spends every day with his mistress, ignoring the female lead."

Gu Xingyuan didn't know what to say for a moment.

He hugged her again and said, "After we get married, I will definitely treat you well."

"Marriage? What are we going to use for our wedding? I don't want to have to take a taxi to the wedding venue on my wedding day."

"Gu Xingyuan, if you don't earn more money, I'm going to marry someone else. Do you hear me?"

"Hmm." He lowered his eyes, the little flame that had been flickering in his heart instantly extinguished.

Jiang Zhiyi leaned lazily against him, finding a comfortable position to continue watching TV.

She was just saying something harsh like she was going to marry someone else, but the next second she was like a little animal that depended on him, clinging to him so obediently.

Gu Xingyuan felt he had absolutely no way to deal with her. In fact, he should have realized this sooner; she had always been like this. When they first got together, he couldn't resist her, and of course, nothing would change now.

He even felt that things were getting worse and worse, and that she had him completely under her thumb.

After watching today's episode, Jiang Zhiyi stood up and said, "I'm going to take a shower first."

Gu Xingyuan also began cleaning the house.

He saw her phone lying carelessly on the carpet; she always left it lying around, and he could never find it himself.

He placed his phone in a conspicuous spot next to the coffee table, but accidentally pressed the power button, and the screen lit up.

An hour ago, a contact named "Li Yao" on WeChat sent her a message.

You left a lipstick in my car last time. When are you free? I'll bring it to you.
