The next morning, when the first rays of sunlight filtered through the gauzy curtains, scattering specks of light into Chuchu's girlish bedroom, the entire room seemed gilded with a faint golden hue, adding a touch of warmth and tranquility. A light, fresh scent permeated the air, a stark contrast to the tense atmosphere of the previous day.
Chuchu and Ronglin drove to Gu's house together.
The car slowly stopped in front of the Gu family's door. Rong Lin gently straightened his clothes, and his eyes revealed a bit of determination.
Chu Chu took a deep breath, as if to cheer herself up. The moment the door opened, a familiar face came into view - it was Chu Lei. He was looking at them in surprise, as if he didn't expect someone to be so similar to Lu Chenguang.
"Chu Chu, this is..." Chu Lei was interrupted by Rong Lin before he could finish his words. Rong Lin smiled and extended his hand, his manners elegant and graceful, like a scholar from afar, exuding a calm and unhurried aura. But who would have thought that he was not an ordinary person, but a god with ten thousand years of cultivation?
Chu Lei was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered and politely shook Rong Lin's hand. "So it's Professor Rong. Please come in." His eyes lingered between Rong Lin and Lu Chenguang, who was following behind Chu Chu. The uncanny resemblance between Rong Lin and Lu Chenguang was hard to ignore. Chu Lei couldn't help but mutter to himself, these two people are simply cast from the same mold.
In the living room, the moment Lu Xiao and Song Shilin saw Rong Lin, their expressions were equally complicated, with both curiosity and vigilance.
They were filled with confusion. Who was this "new face" who suddenly appeared? Why did he look so similar to Lu Chenguang?
Chu An also looked at Rong Lin with curiosity, as if he wanted to find out something from this professor.
"This is Professor Rong Lin." Chu Chu introduced him to her family again, with a hint of pride and respect in her tone.
Rong Lin also took over the conversation at the right time: "It's a pleasure to meet you all. It's an honor to have the opportunity to visit you in person this time." His voice was gentle and powerful, making people feel inexplicably at ease.
As the family sat around the dining table, the atmosphere was somewhat delicate. Everyone carefully avoided mentioning Lu Chenguang's name, fearing that it would touch a sensitive nerve.
Later, Chu Fei found an opportunity and quietly pulled Chu Chu aside: "Is he really just your professor? Why..." Her eyes were full of doubts and confusion. Chu Chu smiled bitterly. She knew what her sister wanted to ask, but the answer to this question was not easy to explain.
"Sister, I know what you want to ask. But he's definitely not Lu Chenguang, he just looks a lot like him." Chu Chu tried to sound more relaxed. But Chu Fei clearly didn't believe this explanation. She pressed on, "They're exactly the same, and you're still lying to me? You're not ordinary, and so is he, right?"
Chu Chu shook her head helplessly and said with a smile: "Sister, have you really forgotten? You have seen him in the Demon Realm. He is now the Heavenly Monarch."
Chu Fei patted his head upon hearing this, as if trying to recall that vague memory: "Have I really been to the Demon Realm?"
Chuchu nodded: "Sister, it's actually a good thing that you're gradually forgetting that memory. That time in the Demon Realm, I really scared you."
Chu Fei couldn't help but feel a complex emotion when she heard this. She recalled the thrilling experience in the demon world and the powerful strength and unfathomable strength displayed by Rong Lin, the Heavenly Monarch at that time.
She turned to look at Chuchu and asked, "Chuchu, is he good at judging people?" Chuchu smiled and said, "Sister, who do you want him to judge?"
Chu Fei was embarrassed, and Chu Chu guessed: "Are you going to see your foreign boyfriend?"
Chu Fei stood by the window, with a slightly nervous face, and she smiled embarrassedly, with a bit of self-mockery and helplessness in her smile: "Sister has dated several boyfriends but none of them worked out. Now when I think of the prophecy you made when you were a child, my heart is in turmoil." Chu Fei turned her head and looked at her sister Chuchu, who was sitting by the bed, looking at her with concern.
Seeing this, Chuchu relaxed a little. She thought to herself that her sister knew to be cautious, which was a good thing. "Sister, it's always good to be cautious. These days, people's hearts are often hidden, and it's true that we can't be easily deceived. We don't know much about your foreign boyfriend. Do you know his family situation? For example, what is his family background like? How many brothers and sisters does he have? Also, is he usually a talkative person? Is he outgoing or introverted? And how is his parents' relationship? Is it harmonious?"
Chu Fei was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Chu Chu to be so attentive. "Well... he is quite talkative. We always have endless topics to talk about. As for his parents' situation, I didn't ask specifically. After all, we have only been dating for a short time." Chu Fei's voice was a little shy.
Chu Chu nodded gently, then asked, "So what does he do for a living? Is it related to art? I've seen your Moments, and there's always music in your group photos. Isn't he a musician?"
Chu Fei reached out and gently patted Chu Chu's head, smiling very gently: "You are more worried than I am. He is the drummer of the band and has performed at some music festivals before, but you may not have seen him. He has been following me for a long time and only recently mustered up the courage to confess his feelings to me."
Chuchu couldn't help but smile after hearing this. "In that case, it's fine for you to have a relationship, but you still have to be cautious about getting married. You know, today's society is very complicated. I listened to interviews with some successful women. They got married around the age of 40, and some didn't get married at all. They have successful careers and live a very free life. They say that marriage is the grave of love, and it's better to trust yourself than to trust men. Some people even say that men are unreliable..."
