Although they agreed to be alone together, there was really nothing fun at home, so they decided to go to the market.
As evening approached, most of the merchants in the market had gone home. Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao held hands tightly and walked in opposite directions through the crowd of people going home.
Youxiang Teahouse, private room——
Chu Lingxiao entered and looked around, and found that the place was decorated very simply and elegantly, without too many decorations.
The intricately carved patterns and designs on antique furniture exude a unique elegance, while the embroidered designs on silk cushions come alive, seemingly telling ancient stories.
The candles on the candlesticks emit a soft glow, and the dim light of the lanterns adds a mysterious atmosphere to the entire space, creating a peaceful and solemn atmosphere for drinking tea.
There are also products made of bamboo, rattan, wood and grass, which make people feel like they are in a small farmhouse and back to nature.
The unique fragrance and warmth of tea allowed the two people to relax in such an environment.
As if he had thought of something interesting, Chu Lingxiao looked at Gu Qingze with a smile.
"Actually, when I was little, I didn't like the taste of tea. I even hated it."
"Then why do you suddenly like me now?"
Gu Qingze asked with a smile.
"I don't know. Maybe people change all the time. For example, two years ago I hated you, but now I like you so much."
Chu Lingxiao looked at Gu Qingze with a smile, his eyes full of tenderness.
"It's different, I..."
Gu Qingze didn't want to keep it a secret from him any longer and couldn't help but speak up.
Boom————
Hearing the sky getting darker outside, Gu Qingze closed his mouth and didn't say anything else.
"What's different?"
Chu Lingxiao was still tilting his head, waiting for an answer.
"There's nothing different. You're right."
Gu Qingze had no choice but to continue speaking like this.
"Really?"
Chu Lingxiao drank another cup of tea.
Although he didn't say anything, Gu Qingze always felt that he seemed to have noticed something.
"If you like it, I'll buy some tea so you can drink it at home."
Gu Qingze changed the subject.
"No, I don't have time to drink."
Chu Lingxiao secretly glanced at Gu Qingze, then looked away in an instant when his eyes met his dark black eyes, observing his emotions.
In fact, he knew that maybe Gu Qingze didn't intend to hide something from him. Just like he said, everyone has their own secrets, and sometimes even the closest people can't know the secrets. This is normal, and he just feels awkward.
Gu Qingze took a sip of tea and continued chatting as if it were a normal conversation.
"Ling Xiao, I will never hurt you."
It was clearly a nonsensical sentence, but Chu Lingxiao understood it. He was talking about what happened just now. No matter whether he was hiding a secret from him or not, he would not harm him.
"Have you noticed that every time I want to say something special, the sky becomes overcast and lightning flashes. Maybe I can control the weather. Isn't that amazing?"
Gu Qingze's words woke him up. Chu Lingxiao indeed found that sometimes he would start to lose his temper when he was halfway through speaking or even before he finished speaking.
In fact, this kind of weather is very contrary to common sense. Is it because of the order of heaven?
What secret does Gu Qingze have that even Heaven won't let him reveal?
“Could it be…?”
Just as Chu Lingxiao was about to speak, Gu Qingze covered his mouth with his hand.
"Just think about it in your heart, don't say it out loud, I don't want you to get hurt."
Gu Qingze said this earnestly, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Fortunately, as long as he didn't reveal the specific events, everything would be fine. This way, he could explain it clearly to Ling Xiao.
