Juliet
Gu Yu wasn't unwilling to chat with Chen Shengxu; she just didn't know how to face him.
She felt disgusted and ashamed, and she couldn't share her thoughts with anyone. If she did, they would only think she was malicious.
So annoying.
She really didn't know what to do, so she called Mrs. Gu.
"Mom, are you free now?"
"Yes," Mrs. Gu stopped her work, told an employee to take care of it, and walked aside to ask, "What's wrong, darling?"
There are some things I don't understand.
"Now tell your mom about it."
Gu Yu poured out his heart, his brow furrowed the whole time.
"Oh dear, you're overthinking it!"
"Um?"
“Aren’t you good enough, darling?” Mrs. Gu said. “You are good enough, and Chen Shengxu is also very good, it’s just that you are in different fields.”
"You feel you're not good enough for him, but what about him? Does he feel the same way?"
"Also, if you regret saying no as soon as you say it, you should think it over carefully before you say it. Once you've said it, you can't take it back."
“You can throw a tantrum and go against him, but sometimes you will hurt him. You want to test him, but you are using the wrong method,” Madam Gu said helplessly. “Gu Yu, you are so arrogant because you know he likes you.”
"But--"
"Gu Yu, emotions are relative."
“If you hadn’t talked to each other before, I wouldn’t be telling you all this. I would tell you that if you don’t like him, you should make it clear to him and break it off cleanly. But you have another relationship, which makes things complicated.”
"Then what should I do?"
Do you want to keep hurting him?
"In no mood."
“Then don’t do that. You can be a little willful, but don’t say hurtful things. If you’re sad, he’ll be sad too,” Madam Gu smiled. “Besides, I think even if you throw a tantrum, that boy will patiently coax you, right?”
"Um."
"Honey, don't keep worrying about the future. Just live peacefully in the present."
"I understand, Mom."
"Okay~ I'll hang up now?"
"Okay, goodnight, Mom."
"good evening."
Gu Yu patted his face.
"Calm down, Gu Yu!"
After sorting out my thoughts, I sent Chen Shengxu a goodnight message and then went to sleep.
When Chen Shengxu received the news, he jumped two meters high and laughed.
After replying "goodnight," I went to sleep peacefully.
The next day, Gu Yu searched for how to get along with a suitor and many posts popped up.
She glanced at the chat logs, and they were no different from the conversations she had with Chen Shengxu in junior high school.
So, is it okay to just take it easy?
She then asked her roommate who had gone shopping with her last time, and her roommate only said that someone was pursuing her, without mentioning anything about their previous relationship.
"Um...can I see the chat history?"
Gu Yu showed her the chat history.
My roommate saw the transfer and yelled, "Gu Yu! Are you stupid?! Aren't you going to accept the transfer?!"
“I feel a little awkward,” Gu Yu said. “Do I really have to accept it? Would it be bad if I didn’t?”
“Not accepting it would save him money.”
"ah?"
"Don't you like him?"
"No, I don't like any."
"Then why didn't you accept it?" my roommate said. "My brother transferred money to someone he was pursuing before, but that girl didn't accept it because she didn't like my brother."
"But you like him, so why not accept him? Are you just shy?"
Gu Yu was actually more embarrassed, and then he deliberately went against him. He wasn't too embarrassed, but at this point he could only nod in agreement.
Then she listened to her roommate talk for a long time about the rules of flirting.
She found it interesting, but felt it wasn't right for her.

Chen Shengxu took some time to call Yu Cihuan and shared his analysis.
Yu Cihuan: "Are you alright? Are you sick?"
"Huh? What's wrong with me?"
Is it possible that she's embarrassed or awkward about not accepting your money?
"Yeah?"
"How much did you spin?"
"Ten thousand."
"Are you crazy?!" Yu Cihuan rubbed his temples speechlessly. "You're pursuing her, and you haven't spoken for two years. You're still in the awkward stage, not even in the ambiguous stage. You come up to her and give her 10,000. How is she supposed to accept that? Giving her 1,000 or 2,000 would be fine, but 10,000 is too much for your current relationship."
"Oh, I understand, bye-bye."
"You know..." He was hung up before he could finish speaking.
"Chen Sheng, you dog!"
Chen Shengxu felt much better after hanging up the phone.
Then I'll transfer less next time, in smaller amounts more frequently.
Once you actually meet in person, the longing becomes even more unbearable.
"Brother Du, is everything almost done here?"
Brother Du knew what he was thinking at a glance. "There's nothing I need from you. Go play by yourself."
"Then I'll go to the South City for a couple of days."
"Get lost."
Chen Shengxu packed two pieces of clothing and boarded the train bound for Nancheng.
This time, he brought the scarf he had knitted for Gu Yu a year ago.
I finally have a chance to give it away.
I shouldn't be rejected...
After arriving, we went to the hotel first.
Then, sitting on the edge of the bed, I texted Gu Yu: "Do you have a lot of classes tomorrow?"
Future girlfriend: [First period in the morning, second period in the afternoon.]
Childish Guy: [Can we grab lunch together tomorrow?]
Future girlfriend: [When did you arrive?]
Childish brat: [Just arrived.]
Future girlfriend: [Didn't you say you couldn't come recently?]
Naive Kid: [Workload estimate incorrect.]
Gu Yu chuckled and typed: Oh, I see.
Childish Kid: [Hmm, so how about we have lunch together?]
Future girlfriend: [Okay.]
"Oh yeah!"
Future girlfriend: [What time tomorrow?]
Childish: [After you finish your class, go back to your dorm and take a nap. I'll wait for you at the school gate at midnight, okay?]
Future girlfriend: [Okay.]
Chen Shengxu threw his phone down and began to regret it.
He looked at the clothes he had casually picked up, and then everything went black.
What shabby clothes.
The next second, he grabbed his phone and rushed to the mall to buy a few more men's clothing items.
After buying it, I realized I wouldn't have time to do the laundry tomorrow.
Oh no! What do we do?!
He slapped his thigh.
Yes! And Yu Cihuan too.
"What are you doing!"
"Brother, brother, save my life!"
"Tch." Yu Cihuan ignored him.
"I have a dinner appointment with Gu Yu tomorrow. I don't have any clothes to wear. Please, lend me two pieces of clothing."
"..."
Yu Cihuan was speechless. "I'm really impressed, buddy. What were you thinking before you left the house?"
"I want to meet with Gu Yu."
Yu Cihuan took a deep breath. "Give me the address, and I'll send it to you later."
"Okay!" Chen Shengxu sent him the location. "Thank you, thank you!"
Yu Cihuan arrived at the door in about ten minutes.
Fish: [Open the door.]
The door opened the next second.
"Wow! Welcome, handsome Yu!"
Yu Cihuan sneered, "Let's try."
Chen Shengxu changed it directly in front of him.
A white inner layer and a brown jacket.
He said, "How is it?"
"handsome."
Chen Shengxu hugged him and kissed him several times on the face like he was getting cupping therapy. "I love you to death, Yu Cihuan! You're so handsome."
"Hehe," Yu Cihuan pushed him away, wiped the drool off his face, "Alright, alright, wish you a good day tomorrow, I'll be going now."
"Okay, I'll treat you to dinner!"
Yu Cihuan nodded and left.

The next morning, Chen Shengxu cleaned himself up and then bought a bouquet of Juliet's flowers.
He chose the restaurant after reading many posts, and then shamelessly asked the local partners about it.
The business partner said his daughter likes to come here to eat and take nice photos.
He stood at the entrance of Nanjing University, holding the bouquet of flowers.
Many people see him when they come out to pick up their packages or eat; some will secretly take pictures, while others will whisper to the people next to them...
He frowned slightly, as if he was attracting too much attention and might cause trouble for Gu Yu.
I'm a bit conflicted about whether to leave or hide for a while.
Future girlfriend: [I'm almost at the door.]
He stopped hesitating and typed: Okay, I'll wait for you here.
I was a little excited and thrilled, my fingertips trembled slightly.
He saw Gu Yu appear by scanning his face.
She wore a simple sweatshirt and trousers, with a black jacket over the gray hooded sweatshirt.
He instinctively opened his arms, then realized that his current situation was a bit awkward.
Gu Yu took it back before he could even retrieve it.
She thought, "It's as warm as before."
I still really like him.
Chen Shengxu raised his hand and touched her head.
Gu Yu looked up at him and said, "Let's go eat."
"good."
On the bus.
Gu Yu brushed aside the petals and asked, "What's this flower called?"
"Juliet Tower".
"It's beautiful, I like it very much."
“If you like it, that’s good,” Chen Shengxu said, showing her the restaurant on his phone. “Let’s eat here today. Do you like it? If not, we can change it.”
Gu Yu looked around and said, "This place is perfect for taking pictures. Would you like to take one for me?"
In fact, Chen Shengxu did have this ulterior motive, but when it was suddenly pointed out, he was a little at a loss.
Q: "I'd like to take your picture, would you like that?"
A smile bloomed on Gu Yu's lips: "I'm willing."
Chen Shengxu laughed out loud, then turned his head to suppress the tears in his eyes.
We arrived at the restaurant.
Gu Yu noticed that some young couples also came here to eat and take pictures, and there were also some very cute little girls taking pictures of each other.
For some reason, she suddenly felt better. All those troubling things didn't matter anymore; now, here, she was meeting Chen Shengxu, and that was the most important thing.
After settling in, Chen Shengxu took out a camera and asked, "Want to film now?"
"sure."
*
They took about twenty photos, and then looked at them together.
Chen Shengxu: "It's been a long time since I've filmed, and I've regressed a bit. I feel like I didn't film as well as I did back then."
"Then take more pictures of me in the future."
Upon understanding the meaning of those words, Chen Shengxu's smile widened, and he replied, "Okay!"
*
After they finished eating, they walked along the roadside.
Gu Yu asked, "How long will you be staying this time?"
"Two or three days."
"good."
Chen Sheng asked somewhat cautiously, "If you're very busy tomorrow, can you call me?"
"Okay, I'll call you tomorrow."
"good!"
They hadn't been gone long when Chen Shengxu escorted Gu Yu back.
Gu Yu carried the flowers into the dormitory and was teased by his roommates.
One of her roommates recognized the flowers in her hand and exclaimed, "Holy crap! Isn't that the bouquet that the guy was holding in the confession wall post at noon?!"
Gu Yu asked, "What about the guy on the confession wall?"
"Let me show you." The girl held the phone in front of her.
Gu Yu took a look and saw that it really was Chen Shengxu.
Another girl leaned over and said, "Gu Yu, the guy you said was pursuing you last time, could it be him?"
"It's him."
"Oh my god! He's so handsome! And he's willing to spend money on you, awesome!" The girl was extremely envious. "But you can't agree to him too soon, you still need to assess his character."
Gu Yu knew that his character didn't need to be examined, but he still nodded in agreement.
