These cherished memories touched the softest part of her heart. She felt that it would be too heartless of her not to visit her aunt; her conscience wouldn't allow it.
Anyway, we've been hiding for so long, it's time to face it now.
Actually, her aunt had contacted her during this time, and she sensed her aunt's probing, but she managed to dodge all the questions.
But now she feels like there's nothing between her and Su Yan anymore, and things are fine as they are now.
Moreover, their families lived just steps apart when they were children. She and Su Yan practically grew up together, practically naked, so it's normal for her to fall for him.
"Host, are you planning to go?" The system became interested in watching the show. After thinking for a moment, it understood her thoughts. "But it's fine to go for a bit. Even if a deal doesn't go through, we can still be on good terms."
Gu Luoxi: So this sentence is used like this?
Did she not learn Chinese well in elementary school?
"Don't keep saying these weird things. It makes people feel like you're living in a cultural desert," Gu Luoqi said with a look of disgust.
This thing even has a learning assistant system. Won't she run into problems learning Chinese with it?
"Anyway, as long as the general meaning is roughly right, there's no need to pay attention to these small details." The system noticed her disdain but didn't panic.
Gu Luoxi stopped worrying about it and her eyes showed a rare tenderness. "Yes, I'll go see Auntie next week."
Su Yan was a little stunned, not expecting her to agree so easily. He breathed a sigh of relief, as if something that had been hanging over his heart had suddenly been put down.
He stared at Gu Luoqi with his beautiful eyes, as if trying to find some clue on her face.
However, it was clear that he found nothing; all he found was a calmness, a tranquility that emanated from within.
This was something he had never noticed in her before.
Or perhaps he simply didn't know her at all.
"I said I'd go, and I will. Although my character isn't the best, I still have basic integrity." Gu Luoqi looked at him and, as if afraid he wouldn't believe her, added another sentence.
"Alright, I'll come pick you up then." Su Yan smiled slightly and walked away.
For the rest of the time, Gu Luoxi and the others remained silent, seemingly having their mood ruined by some clueless person.
Finally out of the store, Cheng Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. Although she always found Gu Luoqi noisy, she was not used to her silence.
It seemed to have become a habit over the years; she found Gu Luoxi's voice incredibly appealing, but she would never tell her about such an embarrassing thing.
"Actually, the taste is really good. Okay, I'll remember this shop." She said calmly, just to break the silence.
"The taste is good, but it's just not very auspicious." Gu Luoqi's eyelashes trembled slightly.
She wondered to herself, "I used to look for Su Yan but couldn't find him, but now I run into him all the time. Is this some kind of strange fate?"
"Weren't you two having a pleasant conversation just now?" Cheng Cheng said with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
Anyway, she didn't realize how much she disliked him.
“Mhm,” Li Mingya agreed.
Gu Luoqi looked at Li Mingya with a pained expression. Oh no, it hasn't been long since Yaya was corrupted by Xiao Chengzi.
She wasn't a gossipy person before, so why is she getting involved now?
"Isn't this what we need?" Gu Luoqi raised her eyelids and said calmly.
She just doesn't like him anymore; it's not like there's some kind of blood feud or a wife-stealing grudge. Why make things so tense?
With all this fuss, people might think she's crazy.
"That's true, after all, we're childhood sweethearts." Cheng Cheng said, seemingly with a hint of melancholy.
"Hey, hey, hey, what's with those expressions on your faces?" Gu Luoqi asked, looking at the two of them with identical expressions.
Are they looking down on her?
"It's nothing, I was just wondering why I didn't have a childhood sweetheart." Li Mingya's eyes sparkled, and her smiling gaze swept over Gu Luoxi's body.
“Yes, I think the same way as Ya Ya.” Cheng Cheng agreed wholeheartedly.
Indeed, great minds think alike.
Gu Luoqi found it difficult to face the two who were in cahoots—or rather, treacherous foes.
She used to find it hard to argue with just Xiao Chengzi, but now there's another one.
"So what if I have a childhood sweetheart? Is it illegal?" She was often in the wrong but still had a strong sense of self-righteousness, let alone now that she was so confident.
"It's not illegal, but we might not be able to enjoy it," Cheng Cheng said quietly.
Gu Luoqi: "..."
This person's words are getting more and more outrageous, but they still managed to subtly imply something.
Since they weren't really in the mood to shop, they decided to make a quick decision, but luckily Gu Luoqi made her choice after only visiting one store.
She chose a black trench coat and also asked Cheng Cheng and Li Mingya for their opinions.
This time, the three were unusually united in their opinions.
Of course, this is also thanks to the system's virtual try-on function.
