Chapter 356 I Just Found You, and You Don’t Want Me Anymore
Gu Jin didn't really want to chat with Chunyi, but after all, she was a guest, so he couldn't be rude to her.
At first, their conversation was forced, the questions and answers dry and classroom-like. But gradually, she found that Chunyi was knowledgeable, neither arrogant nor impatient, and a very calm and reliable young man.
She still didn't believe that Junyi was only twenty, but she couldn't really chase him to see his ID card, so she could only assume that he was growing too fast.
When it was time for dinner, Gu Jin ended the conversation reluctantly and got up to go to the kitchen to cook.
Junyi also stood up, his hands and feet more nimble than Gu Jin's.
While Gu Jin was working, he was pushed out of the kitchen.
She kept looking back as she walked to the balcony in disbelief and whispered to Gu Nan, "Tell me the truth, is he really never married?"
Gu Nan glanced into the kitchen and knew what was going on. "Mom, he does everything in Fayuan Temple. Not only can he cook, he can also make clothes."
The wedding dress that Chunyi sewed for her was turned into ashes in the thunderstorm. If she had known earlier, she would have taken it off and buried it. Maybe she could still wear it if she dug it out now.
Gu Jin was skeptical. A monk who was knowledgeable, experienced, could cook, and even make clothes, how presumptuous of him.
She continued to observe.
Then I discovered that Chunyi was really dexterous, efficient at work, and had first-class knife skills. The dishes on the table were all delicious and his cooking skills were better than those of the chefs in the hotel.
Not only was Gu Nan eating so hard that he couldn't get up from his bowl, but even she couldn't help but eat half an extra bowl of rice.
Gu Jin suddenly understood why Gu Nan brought him home.
Look at him wearing an apron and cleaning the table. He is virtuous, serious and meticulous. Which woman can refuse a married man who can cook?
Especially since she has been in the academic circle for so many years, she has seen many of her male colleagues being arrogant and ostentatious. A man like Junyi who is knowledgeable, humble and steady is extremely rare.
His attitude changed, and he pretended not to notice Gu Nan's behavior of pulling people into the room to whisper after dinner.
As long as he is not a scumbag who is getting married twice or is a marriage fraud, it is okay to be with him first.
"Let's have dinner tonight before leaving?" Gu Nan asked.
Junyi: "If you want to eat it, I will make it for you in the future."
He looked around the room covered with posters and cartoon stickers. It was lively, but also had a fake, forced feeling. It was completely different from the impression he had of Gu Nan.
Gu Nan sat on the bed, seeing his thoughtful look, and said with a smile: "Don't look at it, it's not what I like."
Seeing that she was not shy about it, Chunyi asked, "Why would you post it if you don't like it?"
"Guess?" Gu Nan was very relaxed, with his hands behind his back and his legs hanging naturally and swinging gently, just like the way he lay on the windowsill in his memory and eavesdropped on people's laughter, with a kind of innocent and non-annoying playfulness.
Chun subconsciously smiled slightly, and a gentle warmth slowly flowed out of her half-closed eyes. Her soul, which had been wandering for many years, seemed to finally rest at this moment, wrapped in hot water, soft and warm.
"I can't guess."
Gu Nan had anticipated his lack of interest and was not disappointed. Instead, he taught him with great interest, "You should tell me, is there any reward if you guess it?"
Junyi: "What's the reward if you guess it?"
Gu Nan chuckled, "There's no reward, you've been fooled."
Sure enough, people who have never been tortured by routines are the easiest to laugh at.
When Chunyi saw Gu Nan laughing heartily, the smile in his eyes deepened, "You played tricks on me, there is a punishment."
Gu Nan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "You can draw inferences from one example to another, Chunyi, you've made great progress."
Junyi smiled without saying anything.
His gaze was straightforward and soft, falling on Gu Nan, like melted honey wrapping her tightly, sweet but also making people feel uneasy.
Gu Nan subconsciously avoided it, his eyes looking over his shoulder and falling on the windowsill not far away.
Jiang Wanying slipped out to play while they were eating. Now there were only two people in the room, a man and a woman, and the atmosphere suddenly became sticky.
However, Gu Nan was not panicked. With Chunyi's dull personality, he was probably not aware of this ambiguous change at all.
Gu Nan cleared his throat calmly, "It's still early, let's watch a movie."
She stood up and walked to the computer desk, pulled out a chair and sat down, opening her laptop.
The small white circle kept spinning on the blue screen.
Suddenly, everything in front of my eyes went dark.
A warm touch on the lips.
Junyi kissed her.
Gu Nan was caught off guard and did not dodge. He kept his eyes open and saw Chunyi's expression clearly.
He also had his eyes open, observing her nervously. Seeing that she didn't hide, he tentatively kissed her lips.
In just a moment, Junyi's breathing became rapid.
The hot and humid breath hit her nose, stirring up Gu Nan's breathing.
My heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably, and my ears were beating as if I could hear the sound of blood rushing.
But she still didn't respond.
Chunyi's love was too heavy, so she had to deal with it cautiously and had many concerns.
She doesn't like this world. It is strange, dangerous, and full of malice towards ordinary people. If she wants to go back, she will have to give up everything here.
Lin Jingchun, Qi Yan, and Chunyi were all the romantic relationships she had given up. Jiang Wanying and Fang Weiai, her sisters, were all the sisterhood she had forsaken. And then there was Gu Jin, this illusory yet beautiful maternal love that did not belong to her, and she could not take it away.
She came alone and left alone in the end.
Love debts are hard to repay, and she doesn't want to owe more.
Gu Nan closed her eyes and turned her head slightly to avoid his kiss.
Chunyi stared blankly at Gu Nan's rejecting face. The joy of reunion was like bubbles exposed to the light, shattering into pieces with a pop.
In an instant, Junyi once again felt the chill of falling into an icy cave.
Gu Nan looked at him with disgust and said in the coldest and most ruthless tone: Chunyi, don't make me hate you.
The nightmare that had trapped him for over two hundred years came flooding back. The fear of separation made him lose all composure. He stiffly raised his hand to clasp Gu Nan's shoulder and said in a hoarse voice, "Where are you going now?"
Gu Nan didn't dare to look back, leaving only a side profile of him that looked like he was escaping. "It's a place very far away, a place you can't reach even if you search for a hundred years or a thousand years."
Following fear, despair also spread unbridled, "Can't you take me with you?"
“I can’t take it.”
Just like before, Chunyi was silent for a long time, and then spoke with difficulty: "I just found you, and you don't want me anymore."
Chunyi was in a trance and returned to two hundred and forty-one years ago. Gu Nan was sitting on the big red wedding quilt, his figure hidden in the darkness at the foot of the bed, and said coldly: I need your help.
——What about me?
——We just got married, don’t you want me anymore?
——Yes, I don’t want you anymore.
He had just found her, and she didn't want him anymore.
Chunyi supported the computer desk with one hand and rested the other on the back of the chair, hunched over. After a long pause, she finally found her voice again: "What makes you think I will still fulfill your wish?"
He helped Gu Nan, but who will help him?
