Chapter 262 Misunderstanding
Gu He suddenly became excited, but subconsciously lowered his voice: "Do you remember where you went on the day the button was lost?"
Yun Qing: "It seemed like a party. I was feeling bored, so I went to the back garden with a few friends my age. Later, they were called away, and I was left alone."
"I remember there was a little boy wearing a mask who fell into the pool and fainted. I had a hard time dragging him to the edge of the pool. Maybe that's when the button fell off."
Gu He's voice trembled: "You... saved him?"
"Not really." Yun Qing shook his head. "I just managed to get him to the edge of the pool, but he was about the same size as me. I didn't have the strength to drag him up, so I could only hold on to him to prevent him from sinking. It wasn't until someone heard the noise and rushed over that he was taken away to the hospital."
Gu He: "Then...where was your dress later?"
Yun Qing recalled again: "It seems that I gave it to Qin Ruo."
Gu He: "For Qin Ruo?"
"That should be her," Yun Qing said. "She had just arrived at the Qin family at that time and was very timid and cautious. One time, when I was sorting out clothes, she happened to be there and stared at the clothes for a long time."
"I had no intention of wearing that dress anymore and was about to get rid of it, but seeing that Qin Ruo liked it, I gave it to her."
After hearing the whole story, Gu He took a step back and almost couldn't stand.
Yun Qing had always found his question baffling, and now, seeing him lose his composure, she became even more confused.
Glancing at the small button, Yun Qing suddenly realized something and said uncertainly, "Could this be the one I dropped?"
Although she asked this, her tone was uncertain.
After all, her dress was not custom-made, so it was normal to have the same style, let alone just a button.
But Gu He’s reaction seems to be a bit problematic?
Gu He took a deep breath, his eyes instantly reddened: "Yes, it's yours."
Yun Ran: “?!!”
She widened her eyes slightly: "So, you are, that..."
"It's me." Gu He nodded solemnly, "I'm the little boy you saved."
Gu He and Yun Ran have known each other since childhood, but they did not play together when they were infants.
The Gu and Qin families' paths to wealth were different. In the beginning, it was more of a routine cooperation, with both parents interacting with each other, but their personal relationship was average.
It was later, when Gu He and Yun Qing had grown up, that they happened to meet at school. They got along well and could play together, and their relationship became better and better, and the number of times they visited each other increased.
Before that, they didn't know each other for a while.
That banquet happened to take place shortly before Gu He and Yun Qing officially met.
Gu He has been trained as an heir since he was a child. His stable status naturally attracted the malicious intentions of some people with lofty ambitions.
He fell into the pool during the banquet. It wasn't an accident, otherwise no one around would have noticed it.
If Yun Qing hadn't saved him, he would probably have been dead by the time others arrived.
As for him wearing a mask at the time, that was a coincidence.
At that time, he didn't know that he was allergic to some foods. He had a rash on his face that had not completely subsided. He didn't want to be laughed at, so he got a mask to cover his face.
However, Gu He did not expect that a mask would cause such a big misunderstanding, and he did not understand it until now.
