Gu Xin looked up at Lu Zheng and asked, "Brother Yuanyuan, can you tell me who your sweetheart is? She's round, cute, with crescent-shaped eyes when she smiles, two little dimples, and she's gentle, lovely, beautiful, and generous?"
Lu Zheng was amused.
Why does this girl add so many prefixes?
Her eyes seemed to say she understood, yet also seemed not to.
Seeing that he didn't speak and seemed to still be smiling, Gu Xin felt a little embarrassed. She shook his hand, pursed her lips, and said with a mix of anger and coquettishness, "Just tell me, who is it? If you don't tell me, my sweetheart won't be able to decide."
Lu Zheng was even more amused. This girl was still the same as before, wanting to confirm her feelings, acting cute and angry at the same time. She was incredibly adorable.
Gu Xin felt that time was passing very slowly, and she felt so embarrassed.
She tried to shake off Lu Zheng with her small hand, but failed. She said angrily, "Fine, don't tell me then! You're making fun of me. You're such a bad person!"
Lu Zheng nodded: "Yes, I'm a bad person. I took a liking to a little girl when she was only ten years old. I'm so bad."
Gu Xin's eyes widened.
Lu Zheng continued, "The little girl was too young, and I was afraid she wouldn't understand, so I didn't tell her. But now she's thirteen, and I think she should understand, so I'm hesitant about whether to tell her or not. Xin Xin, what do you think?"
Gu Xin's heart was beating even faster; she was increasingly convinced that it was her.
She's so smart; her bold guesses from before were right!
Seeing Gu Xin's changing expression, Lu Zheng pulled her towards the lake.
Gu Xin was still immersed in the thought of her bold hypothesis, her careful verification, and the eventual confirmation that her hypothesis was correct.
She walked to the lakeside, and a gust of cold wind made her feel refreshed.
Lu Zheng pointed to the round moon on the lake: "Xin Xin, is there a moon in the water?"
Gu Xin was taken aback, then shook her head: "The moon in the water is the moon in the sky."
Lu Zheng turned Gu Xin around, looked at her with endless tenderness in his eyes: "Yes, the moon in the water is the moon in the sky, and the person in front of me is the person in my heart."
At that moment, Gu Xin felt unable to think. There was something in Yuan Yuan's eyes that attracted her and made her unable to think.
But when she looked up, Yuan Yuan's eyes were only on her.
She's also in Yuan Yuan's heart!
Bai Er, feeling the cold wind blowing, wanted to shout to the sky. Why couldn't he have just watched the lanterns with the Fifth Sister? Why did he have to suffer with the Third Sister?
Lu Zheng: "My little Xin Xin, do I still need to tell you who my sweetheart is?"
Gu Xin shook her head, revealing a bright white smile, her eyes crinkling: "No! My Yuan Yuan's sweetheart is Xin Xin, is she Gu Xin, right?"
Lu Zheng: "Yes, it's Gu Xin. The third daughter of the Gu family, Gu Xin."
"Hahahaha..." Gu Xin chuckled for a while, then took out a purse. "Brother Yuanyuan, from today onwards, you are also my sweetheart. So, I'm giving you a purse, which I sewed myself! You can't complain about how ugly it is, because you're the one who made me your sweetheart first, so you can't dislike me."
Lu Zheng took it, and upon looking at it, he was reminded of his past life.
In his past life, in the third year of his relationship with Gu Xin, after Gu Xin realized his true feelings for her, she gave him a purse and said, "Don't be disgusted by it. This is my first embroidery piece. I only started learning it when I arrived in the capital. It's a gift for the person I love."
She learned all kinds of musical instruments, including the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but she didn't learn needlework or cooking. She learned those during her free time when she accompanied him to the capital.
