Chapter 31 Confession
The next moment he reacted, Gu Yunsu burst into tears.
It’s so terrible!
In order to see him, and to make him remember this absolutely beautiful self even if they break up, she spent a huge amount of money to buy this refreshing avocado-colored A-line skirt, paired with a white loose sweater. What is she pursuing? To be cute, playful, charming and sexy, not to let coffee do this!
Not to mention that after a splash, you will be soaked and sticky all over, and you will turn into a vanilla coffee monster, which is ridiculous and uncomfortable.
The coffee stains on her skirt were mottled, like a lost map.
Gu Yunsu didn't want to be so hypocritical. God knew that she had always been a tough guy, but tough guys also have tenderness, and she also had girlish thoughts that could not be avoided.
Once the mood strikes, crying scenes are easy.
Gu Yunsu blinked and started to cry.
Xu Wenbin quickly stood up from his seat and went to her side. He took a tissue to wipe her and asked, "What's wrong? Did you get burned?" He then consoled her, "It's okay, I'm here for you."
He looked concerned, not as if he was just being perfunctory; he was genuinely worried that she might get hurt.
Seeing his expression, Gu Yunsu felt warm in her heart and no longer felt so wronged. She shook her head and cried, "No, I'm fine."
"Are you really alright?"
"Um."
Xu Wenbin let out a breath, and couldn't help but look at Gu Yunsu jokingly, and asked: "Are you really alright..."
It means "It's really nothing. What are you doing crying like this?"
The waiter came over with a mop and rag to help, and the few tables of customers in the store also turned their attention to them. Gu Yunsu came to his senses at this time, and reason took over again. He easily realized that he was a little embarrassed.
"Don't wipe it, I'm fine," she gently pressed Xu Wenbin's hand and whispered, "Let's go."
Xu Wenbin took one look at her and immediately noticed her embarrassment. Although he had a smile on his face, he did not expose her. He just persuaded the waiter to leave, paid the bill, and took her away.
Although she was wearing a coat, the cold wind still made her feel sparkling and cool. There was a clothing store next to Gu Qiaoer, so Xu Wenbin pulled her in without saying a word.
Gu Yunsu thought this was not the time to save money, so he didn't refuse. He picked out a set of sweater and jeans worn by the model and changed into them in the fitting room.
The clothes were not from a famous brand, but the quality was good. She secretly looked at the price tags in the fitting room and her heart skipped a beat. She had never expected such a small shop to cheat customers, charging eight hundred and fifty yuan for a sweater.
If I had stopped working, it wouldn't have been a big deal. I could spend money like water even if I didn't earn much. But after resting at home for such a long time, my savings are almost gone. Although I can still ask Wu Limei for money, you see, her food and accommodation are so restricted, not to mention the money transactions involved.
Gu Yunsu looked left and right in the mirror, trying to find a less deliberate reason to change her clothes, but to be honest, even she thought they looked good and was reluctant to return them.
She hesitated in the fitting room for ten minutes before she walked out. As soon as Xu Wenbin saw her, he nodded and praised her: "It looks good. Let's take it."
Gu Yunsu wanted to save face. She and Xu Wenbin were in an awkward and delicate stage in their relationship. She didn't want to show weakness in front of him. She had even rushed to pay for several of the previous dates. Now that she was buying for herself, she couldn't back down because of the money.
She nodded, walked to the cashier, and took out her phone: "I'll use Alipay."
The waiter explained as he was bagging her food: "Your boyfriend has already paid for it," and then smiled and winked, "Your boyfriend is so nice."
Gu Yunsu looked at Xu Wenbin, who shrugged innocently and then stretched out two fingers from his temple to point outwards in a cocky manner: "It's just a small favor, you're welcome."
She knew that he was deliberately trying to minimize her discomfort, but at the same time, Gu Yunsu felt relieved and at the same time, it was as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a capsule stuck in her throat.
She doesn't want to spend a man's money, at least before they are together, before the other party officially becomes her own and before she spends money on him generously. She knows that people should not calculate so clearly, the force is mutual, if you calculate in your mind, over time, the other party will also take it as a habit, it is good for two people to be fair to each other, but there is always a lack of intimacy.
If you calculate money, others will think you are petty and cold-hearted, but who knows that it is precisely because she cares too much about the relationship and hopes that the relationship can remain pure without being disturbed by external factors that she will work hard to resolve all external factors.
Men all like her for this. When she settles the money she owes to others, they always laugh at her for being cute and pretend to be generous and say, "No need. I only give you money because I love you."
But sometimes men don't like it either, that is when she feels that the other party is deliberately taking advantage of her and settling the debt she owes her. At this time, the other party will hate her and question her: "I have paid so much for you, and you are only staring at your little money?"
God, can't she just keep an eye on the hard-earned money she worked so hard for?
Money should be spent on people who are worth it. To put it quantitatively, if the other person has 100 yuan and is willing to spend 50 on her, she may do something stupid like spending 75 of her 100 yuan savings on him.
No matter how you look at it, she is still a little stupid.
Xu Wenbin walked up to her and asked, "Do you want to see something else?"
Gu Yunsu looked at him with a mean heart, thinking that his brother was really good at pretending, and then shook his head with a smile.
Seeing that she was wearing too little, Xu Wenbin asked her to wait in the store while he went to get the car.
The young store clerk looked at his leaving figure with envy on her face: "Sister, you are so lucky."
"Um?"
"My boyfriend is so handsome and considerate. I'm so jealous." The younger sister said with a crazy look on her face.
The lady boss had just killed this sucker, so she was in a good mood and flattered Yunsu: "Then you don't even look at what kind of temperament the young lady has, how can you compare to her."
Gu Yunsu found it funny: "What kind of temperament do I have?"
"Oh! You look cultured and well-mannered!" The lady boss took Gu Yunsu's hand affectionately, as if she was trying to attract a regular customer, and praised him sincerely, "Look at your hands, so soft and tender, you've never done housework, have you? I'm not trying to fool you, you're destined to be a wife, you're going to be supported by the rich!"
Gu Yunsu is not a vain person, and she will laugh off anything you praise her for, but when you praise her for being lucky and rich, she can't help but feel happy. She doesn't care about her experience of working in the kitchen and cleaning toilets at home, and happily responds: "I'll lend you your good words, I'll lend you your good words."
"No problem." The lady boss assured her, and then winked, "Your boyfriend is not bad, listen to me, you must seize the opportunity."
Since Xu Wenbin was not around, she didn't have to explain her identity. She could also take the opportunity to say whatever she wanted, pretending to be disgusted and saying, "He has no money."
"Hey!" The lady boss glanced at her and patted her hands, "Young man, you are so picky. Isn't that coat from Burberry? I am a professional in this field and can tell the real from the fake at a glance!" She then admonished her as if she were her own sister, "I'm going to say something offensive, but I think you are not too young, so you should be fine. Be more selective, because you may miss it and never find it again!"
The boss lady didn't lie and she meant well. Gu Yunsu knew that this was the public's opinion and there was no point in getting angry with a stranger. She didn't even care about the boss lady hinting that she was a "leftover woman". She just felt regretful that in this world, talking about money and conditions is the norm, but no one talks about feelings anymore.
You say you want love, friendship, mutual understanding, and sincerity, and that everything else must be based on this. Others will just think you are naive and have not experienced the dangers of life.
Gu Yunsu can understand that this cause and effect relationship makes sense, but in the end someone has to stick to their original intention and not give up, otherwise this world would be too boring.
She was not afraid that she could not hold on, but she was afraid that she would not be able to find anyone else who could hold on as well as she did.
Xu Wenbin just drove the car to the door. Gu Yunsu stood up and was sent to the door by the proprietress.
"Come again." The proprietress waved with a smile.
Gu Yunsu nodded in agreement and took the passenger seat.
"What are you talking about so intimately?" Xu Wenbin asked casually.
Gu Yunsu: "Talking about you."
Xu Wenbin smiled: "What are you talking about?"
"Let me seize this opportunity, or I'll miss it forever."
Compliments really work for everyone. Xu Wenbin smiled and drove even faster. He took the time to glance at her and asked, "So what did you say?"
"I said, 'He's here to pick me up, bye.'" Gu Yunsu was talking nonsense.
"It's my bad luck to come here."
"It's not bad. I don't regret it too much."
"I feel sorry for the boss lady."
"She just received 1,800 yuan, so she doesn't have that much regret."
"Then I feel sorry for myself." When the traffic light turned red, Xu Wenbin stopped the car and asked her, "What would you say if I didn't arrive?"
This atmosphere was probably the atmosphere of a showdown that was about to decide the fate of the two.
Gu Yunsu couldn't help but sit up straight, as if he was going to have a tough negotiation: "That depends on what you say."
"I'm not here, how can you decide on me?"
He really won't give in at all.
But Gu Yunsu was not panicked: "It doesn't matter how I plan to tell the boss lady, but how I plan to tell you depends on how you say it."
Xu Wenbin savored the meaning of these words and smiled.
"Should I say you are smart... or are you cowardly?"
Gu Yunsu understood that these words were meant to provoke her, but she was still awake in this matter of life and death, so provocation would be useless.
"All right," she replied, with a sly wink, "but I'll say the same thing back to you."
After this series of events, Xu Wenbin's attitude had become completely clear. Gu Yunsu had no doubts in his heart and straightened his back again.
Who said they liked someone first might not be that important to other people. If they were interested, they could just leave it unsaid. But Gu Yunsu didn't want to. If the other person couldn't admit his feelings in person, she would be unwilling and worried. In the end, it might be because of her sense of security.
Xu Wenbin was angry and amused, with a helpless look in his eyes. He nodded and said, "You are so cruel."
The traffic light turned from red to green. Xu Wenbin stepped on the accelerator and stopped not far after passing the intersection.
Gu Yunsu remained silent, waiting for Xu Wenbin's verdict.
Xu Wenbin held the steering wheel and didn't look at her. Even though he was so old, he was still a little nervous and couldn't hide it.
Gu Yunsu did not rush him and waited quietly, feeling very happy about his nervousness.
After a while, Xu Wenbin sighed and asked with a smile, "Do you really need me to tell you? Can you show it with actions?"
Gu Yunsu raised his eyebrows: "What actions are you going to take to show your support?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she was embraced by the other party and kissed gently on her lips.
His lips were cool and soft, like mint gummies, pressing lightly against hers, leaving her wanting more.
"Satisfy you." He rubbed her nose and said teasingly.
Gu Yunsu couldn't help but smile, but he rolled his eyes responsibly: "Who satisfies whom?"
Xu Wenbin smiled, rested his hand on her forehead, and said submissively: "Satisfy me, me."
"But I heard it," said Gu Yunsu.
"What did you hear?"
Gu Yunsu leaned close to the other person's ear and said, as if relaying or confessing, "I like you."
