Chapter 23: Hot Springs with Dr. Gu
Lin Muci had no way to defend himself. He raised his eyes slightly and secretly looked at Gu Chaoyu's reaction.
[It's over, it's over. Will Gu Chaoyu think that our whole family is crazy?]
Will he think I'm weird? Will he ignore me from now on?
However, Gu Chaoyu's reaction was far beyond his expectations.
Gu Chaoyu naturally heard Su Wanqing's shocking declaration.
Not only that, he also heard her voice clearly.
[Hehe, let me just get this straight and see how you two can keep pretending!]
[This Doctor Gu looks as steady as an old dog. I don't believe he can hold his nerve at a time like this!]
[Quick! Give me a reaction! Admit it or deny it! Give me a quick answer!]
Gu Chaoyu did not admit it, but did not deny it either. He just raised his eyebrows at the flustered Lin Muci with a smile.
In Su Wanqing's eyes, this ambiguous attitude that leaves room for imagination is simply a huge sugar!
【!!!!!!!!!!!!】
[He didn't deny it! He didn't deny it!]
He raised his eyebrows! What does this expression mean? Is he agreeing? Is he shy? Is he too embarrassed to admit it in person?
[Ah ...
The groundhog in Su Wanqing's heart had gone crazy. She felt that she would rush to the ceiling and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun in the next second.
She dragged Lin Muci to the corner of the living room.
"Lin Muci! Wake up!" Su Wanqing lowered her voice and poked his forehead with disapproval, "Look at what you've accomplished!"
"I...what's wrong with me..."
"You're still asking me what's wrong? Silly brother, you're the one who writes BL novels, so why are you so clueless when this happens to you?"
Lin Muci was stunned by what he said.
"Listen carefully!" Su Wanqing began to analyze each point one by one. "First, why did he specifically send you fish soup? This is called caring! This is called feeding! This is the most basic sign of goodwill!"
"Secondly, when I mentioned your love story with the so-called 'school beauty', how did he react? He immediately picked up some food for you! And he even said, 'You're too thin!' What's that? He's asserting his sovereignty! He's implying that you, me, are his!"
"Third, and most importantly! When I faked a fall just now, who did he protect first? You! He pulled you completely into his arms! That's called subconscious protection! Your body won't lie! This shows that you're number one in his heart!"
"Fourth, I just said that. I was almost bringing the Civil Affairs Bureau here. Did he deny it? He didn't! The look on his face clearly showed his assent! Do you understand?"
Lin Muci listened blankly, replaying the scenes just now in his mind along with Su Wanqing's words.
It seems...what my cousin said...makes some sense?
On the other side, Gu Chaoyu stood by the dining table, cleaning up the remaining dishes, but his ears were always "eavesdropping" on the whispers in the corner.
When he heard Su Wanqing analyzing his motive for picking up the food, he picked up the water glass, walked to Lin Muci and handed the glass over.
"After talking so much, you must be thirsty, right? Have some water. I have something else to do, so I'll go back first."
After handing over the cup, Gu Chaoyu went back home.
Su Wanqing excitedly grabbed Lin Muci's arm and spoke madly in a whisper.
Look! Look! He's here again! He's here again! I just told you he cares about you, and he's offering you water! Isn't this just cooperating with me?!
Lin Muci held the water cup, his hands were shaking.
Gu Chaoyu...are you really...interested in me?
Once this thought came up, it could no longer be suppressed.
Su-God-level assist-Wan Qing saw that the time was almost right and decided to give another strong dose of medicine.
She took out an exquisite card from her bag and put it mysteriously into Lin Muci's hand.
"What is this?" Lin Muci looked down.
——"Yunqi Shanshe" private hot spring resort, 48-hour experience voucher for a double luxury suite.
"Sister...you are..."
"This is the mission assigned to you by the organization!" Su Wanqing patted his shoulder, her tone extremely serious. "Thirty-six Strategies of Pursuit, the first one is to create an opportunity for solitude! Find the right time and ask him out! The rest is up to you!"
Make an appointment...make an appointment with Gu Chaoyu to take a hot spring bath?
Or a double suite?
Lin Muci felt like he was going to combust just by thinking about that scene.
Su Wanqing looked at her cousin who looked distracted, picked up the bag contentedly, waved her sleeves, and left without a trace of cloud, keeping her achievements and fame hidden.
The living room fell silent.
Lin Muci stood there alone, still holding the card in his hand.
"Yunqi Mountain House" private hot spring resort, double luxury suite.
Double... Deluxe Suite...
These words seemed to have some kind of magic power, jumping back and forth in his mind.
He turned the ticket over and over again, and his fingertips were rubbing it until sparks came out of it.
[Ahhhh, hot spring coupon! Double room!]
[Gu Chaoyu and I... just take a hot spring bath...]
Lin Muci only felt waves of heat surging throughout his body.
He turned around in the living room excitedly.
The little drama in my head can no longer be contained.
Theater 1:
He pretended to be calm and knocked on Gu Chaoyu's door.
"Doctor Gu, I happen to have a hot spring voucher. Are you free this weekend? Let's just think of it as...neighborly help each other and relax?"
Gu Chaoyu raised his eyebrows: "Okay."
Success! Perfect!
Theater 2:
He handed over the ticket hesitantly.
"Well... my friend gave it to me. It would be boring for me to go alone... Do you want to..."
Gu Chaoyu's gaze fell on his face, with a hint of inquiry: "Why are you looking for me?"
"Because... because we are neighbors!"
Gu Chaoyu chuckled: "Just a neighbor?"
Damn! The atmosphere has become so weird!
Theater 101:
He stuffed the ticket into Gu Chaoyu's hand, turned around and ran away.
Gu Chaoyu shouted behind him: "Lin Muci, why are you running?"
…
There are more than a hundred ways to invite, corresponding to more than a hundred scenes of embarrassing escape after being rejected.
The more Lin Muci thought about it, the more discouraged he became. Finally, with a "bang", he threw himself onto the soft sofa and covered his head with the pillow.
I can’t… I can’t do this…
What if he thinks I have bad intentions?
What if he doesn't want to go with me at all, but is just too embarrassed to refuse?
[Aaaaah, how embarrassing! My toes are already working!]
In the following time, Su Wanqing sent WeChat messages from time to time to "express concern" about the progress of the task, but all she got was Lin Muci's dejection and self-denial.
As a relationship blogger with millions of followers, Su Wanqing was frustrated with her lack of success and decided to put her professional knowledge into practice.
