Wen Yi was quite annoyed.
How could this person be so... good-looking, with such a radiant smile that it's captivating?
Wen Yi deliberately withdrew her hand, and Gu Huaixu gently touched Wen Yi's toes with his foot. Wen Yi immediately pulled her foot back.
Gu Huaixu looked troubled.
Wen Yi had tucked himself into his seat, making it difficult for him to approach, and he seemed to be still thinking about what to do next.
Wen Yi looked at him with his eyes slightly lowered and suddenly couldn't help but laugh.
Gu Huaixu noticed, "Sister, you smiled, hmm?"
"No." Wen Yi denied it quickly, looking away, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up.
Gu Huaixu reached out and pinched Wen Yi's cheek, forcing her to look at him. "You smiled."
Wen Yi tried to straighten her face, but the smile on her lips was impossible to hide.
Finally, he simply didn't deny it, saying, "I just laughed, and then what?"
She glared at Gu Huaixu.
Gu Huaixu blinked. "Sister's smile is so beautiful."
Wen Yi's smile spread completely and couldn't be taken back, and her heart was filled with sweetness as well.
Like an overturned honey pot, the sweetness spreads so widely that there's nowhere to hide.
As the waiter brought the food, he couldn't help but say, "The young man and woman are so sweet, I'm so envious."
Wen Yi was a little shy, and Gu Huaixu reached out and grabbed Wen Yi's hand, "So, isn't my girlfriend very beautiful?"
"Yes, it looks very nice," the waiter nodded earnestly.
Wen Yi, who had always been ignored growing up and was always invisible in any situation, was now being held by Gu Huaixu's hand, which felt like an official announcement to the world, which was quite subtle.
Especially after Gu Huaixu received the waiter's response, the way he looked at Wen Yi with a hint of arrogance made Wen Yi's heart flutter even more.
Perhaps because she was feeling so happy, the food tasted much better to her than usual, and Wen Yi ate much more than usual.
Looking back, it seems that having a good appetite is a good thing when you're with Gu Huaixu.
After finishing their meal, Gu Huaixu led Wen Yi towards the supermarket in front of them.
Under the moonlight, the two held hands, childishly stepping on each other's shadows from time to time, and then when their eyes met, they suddenly burst into laughter.
They didn't know what they were laughing about, but they just looked at each other and wanted to laugh. Wen Yi would open her arms and hug Gu Huaixu, hiding in his embrace.
The moonlight is gentle, Ah Xu is gentle, and this city is gentle too.
Gu Huaixu put his arm around Wen Yi and lowered his head to kiss her forehead.
Wen Yi said, "A Xu."
"Um?"
Will we always be like this?
Yes, it will.
His answers were always very affirmative, and Wen Yi's inner panic was soothed by such affirmation.
Wen Yi always felt a sense of disorientation, for some reason.
Perhaps happiness came too suddenly and too intensely, so much so that Wen Yi always felt like she was dreaming, and was very afraid of waking up.
"Sister, the supermarket trolleys are huge," Gu Huaixu suddenly whispered in Wen Yi's ear.
"What?" Before Wen Yi could react, Gu Huaixu picked her up and put her in the supermarket cart.
Wen Yi was quite dazed, "This is..."
"Sit tight while you're shopping."
As he spoke, Gu Huaixu quickly pushed Wen Yi into the supermarket. The supermarket was large and spacious, and Gu Huaixu pushed the cart carrying Wen Yi without any obstruction.
Passersby and supermarket staff alike smiled knowingly at the sight.
Who wouldn't love such a passionate and happy young couple?
Wen Yi was initially confused and embarrassed, but after Gu Huaixu pushed her around like that, Wen Yi completely relaxed and laughed much more heartily than before.
"I want potato chips, sausages, and fruit candy."
Wen went crazy as soon as she got to the snack area; she wanted to eat everything.
Gu Huaixu was complaining that all the food was junk food and shouldn't be eaten too much, while Wen Yi was taking everything he had mentioned and throwing it into the car.
In the end, the two of them, who originally came to buy some groceries, ended up buying a bunch of snacks to take home.
As Gu Huaixu carried two large bags of snacks in one hand, he was inwardly smiling bitterly, knowing he would have to go out again tomorrow to buy some fresh fruits and vegetables.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be a problem if Wen Yi ate snacks like this.
Wen Yi didn't think too much about it. She had just gotten home when she received some work-related messages, so she called to handle them.
Wen Yi was not just an incompetent assistant to Wen Ge. Before this, as a PhD holder, she had many mobile work projects under her supervision.
This is also the source of her confidence to leave her family whenever she wants.
The reason I didn't leave before was because Wen Yi is someone who values family very much and longs for a peaceful, happy life with her family.
However, the fact that she was forced to marry in place of another broke her heart, and she realized that some things cannot be forced. Since that was the case, she decided to start over.
When Wen Yi finished her work call and came out to the living room to find Gu Huaixu, she saw Gu Huaixu sitting on the sofa reading a book.
The man had just taken a shower and was wearing loungewear with a slightly low neckline that revealed his handsome neck and muscular physique. He was lounging on the sofa with a book in his hand, creating an artistic scene.
Wen walked over and hugged Gu Huaixu from behind.
The scent on him was the shower gel the two of them had picked out together at the supermarket.
"Finished the call?" Gu Huaixu grabbed Wen Yi's hand and kissed it.
Wen Yi responded with an "Mmm," and continued to hold Gu Huaixu, showing no signs of fatigue and not wanting to let go.
Gu Huaixu held Wen Yi's hand and kissed it again, "I'm going to A University tomorrow after having breakfast with you."
"A University?"
"Yes, it's nearby. The medical research group here is starting a new project, and I submitted my resume. They asked me to come over tomorrow. I should be able to join without any problems, and there's also project funding."
Gu Huaixu looked at Wen Yi and chuckled.
That smile had a deeper meaning. Just like Wen Yi said yesterday, Gu Huaixu had given up a lot to come to this city for her, and it wasn't worth it.
In fact, talented people can find a place to settle down anywhere.
Wen hugged Gu Huaixu tightly, "Ah Xu."
"Um?"
"I'm very happy."
"You will always be happy."
...
The next day.
After having breakfast with Wen Yi, Gu Huaixu left, telling Wen Yi to behave well at home. He said he would come back an hour early at noon to make lunch for Wen Yi and have lunch with her.
After seeing him off, Wen Yi felt... well... it seemed like she didn't have to do anything. Her good little brother not only did the laundry, cooking, and cleaning, but he also made money. She could completely be a useless person, lounging on the sofa and watching dramas every day.
In fact, Wen Yi did exactly that all morning.
The doorbell rang. There were still about ten minutes left before Gu Huaixu texted that he would be back. Wen Yi wondered if Gu Huaixu could fly away.
But she still ran to open the door with great joy.
As soon as the door opened, a group of people rushed in, grabbed Wen Yi, and began searching the room...
