Meanwhile, Gu Siyu was extremely resentful after being kicked out of the cafeteria!
The faint sounds of laughter from the mass wedding drifted from the distant dining hall, making her surroundings seem even more desolate and lonely.
She sat alone on the stone steps, with a few empty wine bottles scattered around her feet.
She was still clutching half a bottle of sweet potato liquor in her hand, her eyes were unfocused, and her face had an unnatural flush; she was clearly drunk.
The image of the usually heroic female battalion commander was completely gone, leaving only disappointment and embarrassment.
After dealing with the trivial matters at the auditorium, Wan Tao came over, still feeling uneasy.
Seeing Gu Siyu like this, he sighed, walked over and sat down next to her, reaching out to take the wine bottle from her hand, "Siyu, don't drink anymore, this wine is strong and will harm your health."
"Leave me alone!" Gu Siyu abruptly pushed his hand away, her voice trembling with tears and drunkenness. "Let me drink! If I get drunk... I won't know anything... my heart... won't hurt anymore..."
She tilted her head back and took another big gulp. The spicy liquid burned her throat and stimulated her tear ducts, causing tears to roll down her cheeks along with the alcohol.
"Why...why? What do I lack compared to that capitalist's daughter? I waited for him for so long...why didn't he even glance at me?"
Seeing her like this, Wan Tao felt very uncomfortable.
He had known Gu Siyu for many years and knew she was stubborn and strong-willed, but he never knew that she had secretly liked He Yanzhi all along.
He sighed and snatched the wine bottle from her hand. "Old He is so stubborn. Once he sets his mind on someone, that's it. Why are you doing this to yourself?"
"I want to! It's none of your business!" Gu Siyu glared at him, her eyes blurry with drunkenness. Suddenly, as if she had discovered something, she pointed at his nose, "Oh... Wan Tao... I know you... you're always secretly watching me... Don't think I don't know..."
Wan Tao's heart skipped a beat, and his face flushed, but fortunately the darkness concealed his embarrassment.
He did have some different feelings for Gu Siyu, but he never said it out loud.
Gu Siyu, as if grasping at a lifeline, suddenly leaned closer to him, her breath reeking of alcohol, and stared intently at him. "Wan Tao... tell me... am I pretty? Less pretty than Guan Wenru?"
Wan Tao was caught off guard by her sudden closeness, leaning back slightly. "You...you've had too much to drink, Siyu! You're very beautiful, but not in the same way as Comrade Guan...you're beautiful in a different way..."
"Then..." Gu Siyu's brain was numbed by alcohol, her thoughts jumping around illogically. She suddenly grabbed Wan Tao's arm, her voice filled with a desperate madness and impulsiveness, "Wan Tao! Let's get married! What do you say?"
"What?!" Wan Tao was stunned, as if struck by lightning, frozen on the spot, his eyes wide open, unable to believe his ears!
"Gu Siyu! What...what nonsense are you spouting! Do you know what you're saying?!"
"Of course I know!" Gu Siyu retorted, emboldened by the alcohol, "If He Yanzhi can get married, so can I, Gu Siyu! Don't you like me? Then let's be together! We'll go and file the report tomorrow!"
Looking at Gu Siyu, who had completely lost her mind, Wan Tao felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if he had been pricked by needles.
He did like her, but what he wanted was not the absurd decision she made in this situation out of spite and revenge!
He took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound calm. "Siyu, you've had too much to drink. You're just talking nonsense. This is not something to joke about. Think about it carefully tomorrow when you're sober."
He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would lose control of his emotions, or... he would be unable to resist agreeing to her absurd suggestion.
He stood up, ready to leave, to let her calm down on her own.
"Don't go!" When Gu Siyu saw that he was really going to leave, she panicked. A feeling of loneliness and despair, as if she had been abandoned by the whole world, instantly gripped her.
She lunged forward and hugged Wan Tao tightly from behind, her voice trembling with tears and a desperate madness, "Yan Zhi! Don't go! Stay with me... just tonight... I'm no less than Guan Wenru... What she can give... I can give too..."
Wan Tao: "!!" Clearly, she wasn't thinking straight and mistook him for He Yanzhi!
This feeling... it really pissed him off!
At this moment, Gu Siyu actually stood on tiptoe and tried to kiss Wan Tao's neck and cheeks in a haphazard way!
A warm, soft body pressed against me, carrying the scent of alcohol and a woman's unique fragrance, along with hot, chaotic kisses that landed on my skin...
Wan Tao's brain buzzed, and all the blood in his body seemed to rush to his head!
But the next second, strong reason and respect overcame the momentary instinctive impulse!
He jolted as if burned, forcefully pried Gu Siyu's hands off his waist, and stumbled forward two steps to quickly create distance between them!
He turned around, his chest heaving, breathing heavily, and looked at Gu Siyu, who was standing there stunned and confused after being suddenly pushed away. His tone was urgent:
"Gu Siyu! Wake up! Look at who I am! I'm not He Yanzhi! I'm not a tool you use to vent your anger!"
Seeing her swaying precariously, he hardened his heart and said, "You...you need to calm down! I...I'm leaving now!"
After saying that, he fled as if he were being chased by a raging flood, his steps faltering but his speed disappearing into the night.
Gu Siyu stood there blankly, the evening breeze blowing, carrying a biting chill. She was mostly sober, leaving only endless embarrassment and emptiness.
This is insane!
She's really going crazy!!!
......
The next day, Guan Wenru got up early.
Although her body was still a little sore, her face was radiant with happiness and satisfaction.
