Chapter 44 Three Shocking Questions!
Of course he should like her. She is so good to him. Anyone with a conscience would like her.
Uh, wait, Lin Layue, why do you look a little strange?
Lin Layue didn't notice Gu Nan's momentary stiffness. Her word "like" had already made him dizzy and disoriented. His heart was full of the joy of sharing his heart with each other, and he didn't pay attention to other details.
He continued, "I'm planning to quit my job at the bar and keep doing my current job for a while. Then I'll try to find a higher-paying job, take on some part-time jobs, save some money, and bring my brother to live in the city."
As he spoke, he glanced at Gu Nan cautiously. Seeing that she didn't object, he continued, "My brother broke his leg a year ago. He didn't get timely treatment, so he had to have it amputated. He's now alone in his hometown. He's in poor health, and medical care isn't convenient in the countryside. I'm afraid something might happen to him, so I want to take him to my side to take care of him."
He took Gu Nan's hand and shook it coquettishly, "Okay?"
Gu Nan was completely stunned.
That’s not right. Isn’t this development a bit wrong?
Lin Layue covered for him so quickly and even explained everything to her brother?
Most importantly, he said he was going to quit the bar?!
Oh my God, she has been looking forward to this day!
Happiness came so quickly that Gu Nan's brain froze. He didn't have time to think about his rapid change. He only heard him say that he wanted to resign.
She eagerly shook Lin Layue's hand and said firmly, "Okay! I think it's okay!"
As long as Lin Layue can live a down-to-earth and serious life and no longer degenerate, everything else will not be a problem!
"From now on, your brother is my brother. Together, we can take good care of him." Gu Nan's face flushed red, and there was a raging fire in his eyes. His expression was serious and determined.
This is a matter of great importance to her rebirth, so it must be done.
Lin Layue stared at her, her cheeks flushed and her whole body hot. She seemed to hear the sound of blood beating in her ears, and her heart was beating up and down.
How could he have met Gu Nan, won her favor, and received her generous help?
He held her in his arms, silent.
He knew he should say something of thanks or promise. Such a good atmosphere shouldn't end in such a stiff way, but he was really tongue-tied and thought his words were pretentious. Doing more and talking less was his motto.
Gu Nan had no idea that Lin Layue was so touched that she was about to burst into tears. She was still thinking about her own performance. "When are you going to pick Jingzhe up in the city? It doesn't seem right to ask for leave right after changing jobs. Why don't you tell me the address and I'll pick him up?"
Haha, Yu Qianqian and the others left, and Lin Jingzhe immediately took over. Lin Layue certainly didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of her family, so she just covered herself with the quilt and chatted steadily.
It was like killing two birds with one stone. Gu Nan was happy just thinking about it.
She pulled out her phone and was about to buy a ticket and leave. "Quick, which is more convenient, the train or the plane or the bus?"
Seeing her say that wind is rain, Lin Layue couldn't help but laugh. She took out her phone and put it back on the bedside, then pushed her down on the bed. "No hurry, go to sleep first."
Gu Nan wanted to do a somersault, but he couldn't. Lin Layue was pressing him down, and the two bodies were hugging him tightly. Although Lin Layue was tall and thin, he was actually full of muscular body, heavy and hard.
"What's the hurry? If you're not anxious, my brother is."
Lin Layue suddenly felt a little regretful that he had suggested bringing someone into the city so early. His work had not improved, and Gu Nan was always distancing himself from him. It was definitely not a good time.
He grabbed Gu Nan's hands and pressed them on the pillow. The warm yellow light was like honey, flowing inch by inch across her jade-like eyebrows, eyes and lips. The undulating light and shadow slowly outlined a rare picture of a beauty.
He admired the scene from above, his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hunter's keenness. "Sister, let's talk about our business first."
"When are you going to want me?"
"Will you give me a name?"
"Is this unhealthy relationship of ours about to enter a more mature stage?"
Three questions in a row, ask the shock!
Gu Nan was so scared that his soul almost flew away, and he wished his soul could leave his body and ascend to heaven immediately.
Help, how did he manage to ask every question on her mind!
The CPU was overloaded, and Gu Nan felt like he was burning all over. He stammered, "Well, well, I thought about it..."
Seeing that she was vague, Lin Layue's heart plummeted like a roller coaster. "You don't want me, or you don't want to take responsibility?"
[System! Help!!!]
The system looked up at the sky, and the opponent just kept silent and pretended to be dead.
Lin Layue's expression changed. The difference between before and after was too great. It was like switching between heaven and hell in a second. Her face was uglier than the bottom of a pot. "In the final analysis, you still despise me."
"No, you're overthinking it. How could I possibly dislike you..."
He sat up and looked at Gu Nan intently, without blinking, his eyes red and about to cry, "So you were just lying when you said you liked me?"
Gu Nan's mind went blank when he saw him like this. "I didn't lie to you. When have I ever lied to you? I just, I just need a little time to react."
Lin Layue thought to herself, bullshit.
She shouldn't react when he wants to take Lin Jingzhe into the city. He wants to make it a fait accompli. If he asks her for a status, she will react. What a liar.
It was a pity that he took her words seriously and was deceived by her.
Lin Layue was heartbroken because her sincerity was betrayed. Tears welled up in her eyes and her nose was red. She looked miserable and like she had been bullied.
Gu Nan looked at the handsome face that looked like a pear blossom in the rain, fragile and attractive, but also full of the words "I am strong and I can withstand the ravages". His ears slowly turned red, and a sign of stirring emerged from a secret place in his heart.
Lin Layue looks so beautiful when she cries, she was shamefully moved!
She admired this truly stunning scene, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously.
Lin Layue's vision was blurry, and she didn't notice her subtle changes at all. The more silent Gu Nan was, the more painful his heart felt, like it was being chiseled so hard that even breathing hurt.
"Tell me what you think..."
Gu Nan: I really want to continue making Lin Layue cry!
But her mind told her to stop. If she really pissed him off, he might become even more depraved if he didn't resign. She would have nowhere to go to see him cry.
She calmed down, leaned over and gently kissed away the tears on his cheeks, and then small kisses fell on the corners of his eyes one after another, gentle and affectionate.
"It's not that I don't want you, it's that I can't have you."
Lin Layue felt extremely powerless, thinking that Gu Nan was going to fool him with the trick of "the one you like cares about" again, but he heard her say:
"Our family has an ancestral precept that prohibits love before marriage."
Gu Nan looked into his wet black eyes, his face full of embarrassment and discomfort. "I've always felt that this rule is shameful and I didn't dare to tell others. Do you also think it's ridiculous?"
Lin Layue was stunned.
All the heartbreak and misplaced sincerity were put on pause, and the crystal clear tears hung on the cheeks, giving people a ridiculous feeling as if struck by lightning and stunned.
What the hell?
Ancestral teachings???
