What else is there to be confused about?
Cheng Qicai burst into laughter, laughing until tears streamed down her face.
After laughing enough, she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "How could you believe such a thing? Even if it's true, are you going to break up with me because of this?"
Gu Rongqi gripped her hand a little tighter. "No."
"That settles it then." Cheng Qicai smiled until her lips were a little dry. She drank a glass of water. "Besides, my mom used to think that me and that other guy were a match made in heaven, but it still didn't work out."
Gu Rongqi frowned and asked, "Who?"
Cheng Qicai thought for a moment, "I can't remember, um... oh, it was the time I took you to the airport. So, I said this kind of thing is a scam. If it were really accurate, I should talk to him..."
Thinking of that person brought back some unpleasant memories, and she couldn't help but groan, "I'm not going to talk about it anymore, I'm not going to talk about it anymore. That person is too slick, I feel like throwing up just thinking about him."
Gu Rongqi's eyes darkened. "What's wrong with him?"
"It's nothing, just showing off. Someone as upright as me definitely wouldn't stand for it." Cheng Qicai noticed that his mood was a bit off, and with a quick glance, she changed the subject. "Besides, if you're going to believe, then you should believe even more that the God of Marriage made me choose you."
Gu Rongqi was taken aback, as if he had thought of something, and his expression softened.
Cheng Qicai continued, "Do you know why I didn't write anything about praying for marriage when I went to the Taoist temple?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Rongqi felt a sudden, chilling intuition.
It must be related to myself...
“Because…” Cheng Qicai hugged him, drawing out the last syllable, “I don’t need to pray for a marriage, you’re right here beside me! It’s already settled, why ask for anything else?”
"So, the moment you write down your wish, one of your wishes is fulfilled, isn't it?"
His wishes were twofold: first, that the Gu family prosper and flourish; and second, that Cheng Qicai's wishes come true.
Gu Rongqi stared at her eyes and remained silent for a long time.
His gaze was like a knife; he silently etched her face into his mind.
He seemed to smell the incense and candlelight of the temple again, see the intertwined red ribbons, and hear the soft yet clear reply, "Your wish will come true"...
Seeing that Gu Rongqi didn't answer, Cheng Qicai lightly punched him on the head with her fist. "Besides, the marriage ball hit you on the head. Doesn't that prove that God has already chosen it for me?"
Gu Rongqi laughed, a bright laugh that made his entire chest vibrate.
It's as if all the fake smiles of the first half of my life have been transformed into genuine smiles at this moment.
He thought, his seven colors... are truly a ray of sunlight.
