Gu Chu was astonished by Xiao Yating's thought process.
She said, "Xiao Yating, you've been reading too many novels! The camp's guesthouse isn't open to outsiders. Do you think the whole camp is playing along with our act?"
Xiao Yating thought about it after hearing this.
Yes, the military guesthouse is only open to military personnel and their families, as well as veterans and related staff, free of charge.
She then asked, "Then why didn't you have a wedding?"
Gu Chu: "......" Do you have to have a wedding ceremony to get married? What era are we living in? So many people have destination weddings. It's not that I don't want to have one, it's just not the right time yet.
Seeing that Xiao Yating was too deeply in love, Gu Chu told her the truth in order to make her give up: "It was my decision not to have a wedding. I promised Grandpa and the others that I would hold it after I get pregnant. If you want to attend, I will get pregnant as soon as possible and send you the first invitation."
"you······!"
Xiao Yating was so angry that she didn't know what to say, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Seeing her cry, Gu Chu comforted her, "Alright, stop crying. Why make such a fuss over a man? The world is so big, there are many other things worth striving for besides men."
Xiao Yating stubbornly said, "But I've liked Brother Shi since I was little."
A liking that you have since childhood is not love; it's just a habit or a dependence on the other person.
Gu Chu noticed something amiss from Xiao Yating's words.
Xiao Yating's repeated claims of liking someone are actually just simple liking. Her feelings for Rong Shi are probably not romantic love, but more like familial love, a kind of familial love that she cannot have.
To confirm her guess, Gu Chu pressed, "Then tell me, what do you like about him?"
Xiao Yating choked for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "He is very good, everything about him is good. In my heart, he is the best man in the world."
Is it just good?
If someone only thinks the other person is very nice, it's clearly not a romantic relationship.
"Just because you think he's good, you think that's love? You're too naive. True love isn't just about thinking everything about the other person is good; it's about wanting to know everything about them, wanting to show your best self in front of them, subconsciously thinking about them in everything you do, and even wanting to possess all their tenderness. You haven't even done the first one, so what makes you think you love him?"
"I..." Xiao Yating was completely speechless after being asked the question.
Gu Chu patiently comforted her, saying, "Little girl, your world is too small. Go out and see the world, and you'll have a chance to meet someone you truly like."
Xiao Yating pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked up at Gu, shook her head and said, "No, no one is more outstanding than Brother Shi, and no one is more capable than him. He is mine, so give him back to me!"
Gu Chu smirked, her gaze towards Xiao Yating filled with disdain: "No, he's mine. He loves me. He's given me everything. Your feelings are twisted; it's a disease that needs treatment!"
Xiao Yating was manipulated by Gu Chu. Her eyes were panicked, and she cried anxiously, "What should I do? I like him and want to be with him!"
Gu Chu couldn't bear to push such an innocent person too hard. Her tone softened, and she reached out to pat Xiao Yating's head: "Silly girl, listen to your sister-in-law's advice, let it go. Don't like a man who won't even bother to look at you. Your affection is lowly in his eyes. You're not even as good as a simp. If you continue, you'll end up with nothing but periodic seizures. Do you want to go crazy?"
Xiao Yating cried out in anguish, "But what can I do if I can't let go?"
Gu Chu's patience was almost exhausted. She said calmly, "Then go die. If you don't want to die, find another man to date. If it doesn't work, it must be that man is no good. Just find another one. There will always be one that's your type."
Xiao Yating looked at Gu Chu in disbelief, feeling the coldness in Gu's eyes. Her heart tightened inexplicably, but she still couldn't help but ask, "Do I really have no chance?"
"What do you think? He's completely focused on me now. In his eyes, you're not even worth as much as trash. Trash can be recycled, but what can you do? Are you even in his sight?" Gu Chu said with a forced smile.
Xiao Yating turned away dejectedly, muttering to herself, "No, it can't be. I'll definitely find a way to make Brother Shi see how good I am. I must become the person Brother Shi cares about most. I want to marry Brother Shi and have many, many children for him..."
As Gu Chu watched Xiao Yating's departing figure, she knew that there would be two outcomes after Xiao Yating left: either she would completely come to her senses and give up her distorted feelings for Rong Shi, or she would go mad.
Suddenly, Gu Chu's phone rang. Seeing that it was Su Wan calling, she answered without hesitation.
"Wanwan?"
"Beep beep beep..."
The call abruptly ended. Gu Chu was puzzled. She called back, but a cold, mechanical voice came through the phone: "Sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off..."
"It's off. Is it out of power?" Gu Chu muttered to herself.
No, Wanwan is with Lu Beichuan, so she can go find Lu Beichuan!
Thinking of this, Gu Chu immediately called Rong Shi.
Rong Shi was about to check the surveillance footage at the main gate when he suddenly received a call from Gu Chu, which surprised him.
"What's wrong?" Rong Shi asked.
"Rong Shi, do you have Lu Beichuan's contact information? Give it to me," Gu Chu said.
"Okay, I'll send it to you right away."
Gu Chu hung up the phone: "Beep beep beep..."
Rong Shi stared blankly at the disconnected phone for a few seconds before sending Lu Beichuan's contact information to Gu Chu.
Gu Chu received Lu Beichuan's phone number and dialed it immediately.
