Chapter 41 After the Failed Proposal



Chapter 41 After the Failed Proposal

Men are really impulsive.

How can the word "marriage" be said so easily?

After getting married, have you thought clearly about the fading love, the troubles of living together, and the responsibilities and obligations of traveling?

Do you have the confidence to not back down despite all the difficulties?

Gu Yunsu didn't believe it.

It's not like she hasn't fantasized about her wedding.

After the music started, she wore a holy white veil and walked towards her lover step by step, towards her happy ending, with the blessings of her relatives and friends.

Isn't it written in fairy tales that the prince and princess lived a shameless and happy life from then on?

It is quite beautiful, she admits, and even at her age, she has suffered too much hardship in life and can no longer stand tragedy. She even chooses romantic comedies when she wants to watch movies. It doesn't matter if the hero and heroine fight or quarrel, as they will eventually live together forever.

But reality is not a fairy tale.

She wasn't the first to discover this, either.

The fairy tale can come to an abrupt end, but these two living people can't just stay there like a photo once they get married.

Will the daily life including the daily necessities of life be as safe and smooth as imagined?

Gu Yunsu didn't think that we should hide when encountering difficulties. She just emphasized that impulse is really the devil in such important life events that should not be regretted.

Besides, who would propose marriage so casually?

How will she remember this in the future? How will she show off to others?

"There are no pictures left because we were naked at the time."

Is it romantic?

Gu Yunsu's smile froze.

She stepped out of Xu Wenbin's embrace and asked seriously, "Do you want to marry me?"

Xu Wenbin laughed: "Are I asking because I want to break up with you?"

Maybe, Gu Yunsu thought in her heart, for someone like her who is afraid of marriage, she would want to run away the moment she heard this question.

"But..." She considered her words, "Why do you want to marry me?"

"Because I like you? I want to build a family with you?" Xu Wenbin was a little confused, but he still patiently explained, "I know you think it's sudden, and I didn't say we want to get married right away. But I think we both have a common goal, and let's put this on the agenda."

"You want to set the date now, and then just prepare?"

"Or at least we can get engaged first, and then choose a date that you're comfortable with, what do you think?"

Gu Yunsu thought Xu Wenbin was ill.

She now knows that this man is good in every way except that he is a marriage maniac.

How long have they known each other? She doesn't even remember his birthday, and now she's saying she wants to get married?

This is nothing short of kidnapping.

She turned around, picked up her shirt from the carpet and put it on, sat up, and turned on the desk lamp.

"Why do you want to get married? Not with me, but why do you want to get married and what do you want to get out of marriage?" she asked.

At this point, Xu Wenbin could no longer pretend that he didn't know what was going on.

He also sat up, leaning sideways against the sofa, and his face sank uncontrollably: "So you don't want to, right?"

"I want to hear your thoughts first." Gu Yunsu replied.

Fortunately, Xu Wenbin was still willing to communicate.

Xu Wenbin: "I don't want to be alone anymore. I want my own home. I want a wife who loves me but also has her support. I want to have children, one or two. We can rely on each other as a family and always have a place to stay in this world." He looked up at Gu Yunsu and asked with a little hurt, "Is this strange?"

Not surprising, of course not.

Gu Yunsu knew that he was the weird one.

On a night like this, the small goose-yellow lamp beside the bed is shining like a heater, making people want a warm hug.

Xu Wenbin's words touched her heart that was afraid of wandering, and made her realize how much she wanted to have an unchanging harbor.

But she was still not sure, this person must be him.

It was true that she liked him very much, but would this kind of liking never disappear? Or, he was making solemn promises at this moment, but who could guarantee that he would not regret and withdraw after "tricking" her into the trap?

The fear of losing was greater than her desire for happiness, and she couldn't just throw herself into it.

She shook her head and said, "It's my problem, but I just... I need some time to think it through."

Xu Wenbin waited for her to continue, but after two minutes, she didn't say anything, so he knew that the conversation was over.

He was a little bored and didn't want to talk anymore. He just sighed and put away all his expectations and disappointments: "Let's go to sleep first."

After saying that, he ignored Yunsu and got up and walked towards the bedroom.

Gu Yunsu felt aggrieved and timid and sat there not daring to move.

I just... didn't think I was wrong, but I really hurt the other person.

What should I do?

When she thought of the horrible behavior at home, her only haven of happiness collapsed overnight. She was miserable the whole night and couldn't sleep.

Surrounded by enemies on all sides, even the Overlord wants to commit suicide!

The next day, when she opened her eyes, Xu Wenbin was no longer beside her. She lay in bed and listened for a while, then tiptoed out to see what was going on. She happened to see him bringing out eggs, bread, and fruit from the kitchen. When their eyes met, she didn't know how to react, but he nodded as if nothing had happened and said, "Let's eat."

Gu Yunsu washed her face and brushed her teeth, then sat down obediently, observing her boyfriend's expression nervously, even breathing carefully.

Xu Wenbin couldn't help but notice it, and then asked her unhappily: "What are you doing?"

Gu Yunsu grinned like a fool, smiling in a flattering way, "Are you still angry?"

Xu Wenbin snorted and said in a weird tone, "How can I be worthy of her?"

Gu Yunsu: "Look at what you said, what's wrong with that! If you want to be angry, just be angry! I don't see who dares to stop me!"

Xu Wenbin rolled his eyes at her.

Gu Yunsu continued: "No, tell me how you want to be angry, I will help you and make you satisfied!"

Xu Wenbin was so angry that he laughed: "Are you complaining that I'm not angry enough?"

Gu Yunsu: "Who said that? I'm just worried that you'll feel uncomfortable if you keep it in your heart."

"Don't try that on me," Xu Wenbin said, pretending to be stern, then complaining, "You're just taking advantage of the fact that I like you."

Gu Yunsu thought in his heart, ah, I used to read this line in romance novels and it made me sick, I always thought it was so tacky, but it turns out to be like this when I heard it in person, and... it's really sweet.

Of course now is not the time to feel sweet.

Gu Yunsu took the opportunity to explain: "I just think it's too fast."

Xu Wenbin: "But I didn't say I wanted to get married now."

"I know," Gu Yunsu said, "but I think it's too fast for you to let me decide now."

"What do you mean?" Xu Wenbin stared at her. "Do you not want to get married, or do you not want to marry me?"

Gu Yunsu wanted to say that she was not sure, but she did not dare to say it. She could only say: "I am not sure whether I want to get married."

Xu Wenbin didn't know what to say.

What can he do if his girlfriend doesn't want to get married?

Is persuasion useful?

It was really that they didn't know each other well enough. He never thought that the girl he had carefully chosen would be so generous as to refuse marriage.

After a moment of silence, he looked at the other person's blinking eyes. Even though he knew that the other person was just pretending to be soft-hearted, he still couldn't bear to do it.

He finally gave in and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to think it through."

It was obvious that Gu Yunsu breathed a sigh of relief.

He sighed inwardly and said, "But I have a suggestion. Since you are staying at my house for the next two days, why don't you stay here if you have nothing to do? We can get to know each other better. What do you think?"

Gu Yunsu felt forced again.

Just because she doesn't want to get married doesn't mean she wants to live together.

But how could she refuse? It happened one after another, and even she felt it was too much.

She looked at the other person, really not knowing what to say.

Isn't there a moment like that, when you can't say anything, you have a million words in your heart that you want to say, you want you to understand me, know what I think, because I like you, so I want to speak out my heart and analyze myself for you. But I don't know how to say it, I feel that we are so different, I am afraid that if I say it, it will be wrong, and it will push you away even further.

Sometimes, understanding is not difficult, but what is difficult is to understand each other's position but be unable to do anything about it.

She was afraid to face such a situation and all she could do was run away.

She said, "I'm confused right now. Can you let me think about the whole situation and give you a clear answer?"

Then, she fled back home overnight...

What's going on? Is she a runaway Disney princess running around like this?

I feel like there is no one in the world more evil than her.

She fled from one home to another, and then found that there was no place in the world that would take her in. Gu Yunsu laughed at herself and wondered what kind of mentality it took to do such a shameful thing.

When they got home, Wu Limei and Li Jianxiong had already fallen asleep. Only Li Yan heard the noise and walked out of the bedroom.

Gu Yunsu didn't want to face anyone right now, and he was even more troubled when he saw Li Yan.

But after being stunned for a moment, the other party greeted him with an attitude that was considered enthusiastic to him: "You are back."

Gu Yunsu waved his hand and nodded perfunctorily, wanting to run upstairs if he wanted to escape.

As a result, she made a mistake in her haste and her slippers loosened, causing her to step on empty air and fall directly onto the stairs.

Why is this happening?

Even though Gu Yunsu is a 28-year-old adult, she still gets so upset that she wants to cry!

I’ve been crying too much recently!

Whether you want to die or not, at least don’t cry in front of Li Yan!

What if he develops sympathy and love for me because of this?

Just as I was daydreaming, the door of the master bedroom opened. Li Jianxiong came out in a daze and asked, "Who is it? Is it Su Su?"

Gu Yunsu quickly stopped crying, wrinkled his nose, and climbed up the stairs and walked towards the master bedroom without paying attention to the pain in his feet, while softly responding: "Yes, it's me."

"Oh, oh." Li Jianxiong nodded, reminded her to go to bed early, and returned to the room.

Gu Yunsu took a breath, her desire to cry was interrupted, and there was no need to continue the previous relationship. Adults can cry if they want to, and they can't force themselves to cry if they can't. They all care about the atmosphere and can't force it. She sighed unconsciously - she sighed naturally recently - and turned around to return to her warm little attic.

As a result, she saw Li Yan standing there waiting for her, with a hint of concern in his eyes, and asked her: "Are you okay?"
