Su Nianxue raised an eyebrow slightly, her eyes full of innocence, "It should also be able to... describe men, right?"
However, none of this matters.
I said that mainly for the sake of rhyming; doesn't it sound pretty smooth?
"Su Nianxue, you've been fooling me all this time!"
I tolerated your handsome features last time, but now you dare to say I'm as beautiful as a flower?
"Have I been neglecting you lately? Are you getting itchy again? Hmm?"
He held her steady with one hand and scratched her waist hard with the other, making Su Nianxue giggle.
"I think you're even prettier than a flower!" She cupped his face and examined him closely, her expression serious.
"What flower?" He asked, his eyes gleaming, as if he were pressing for an answer.
"Yes, it's... a foxtail grass!"
Gu Yanbai………
"I'll plant all the foxtail grass in the flowerbeds at home tomorrow, so you can see enough of it." He gritted his teeth.
"Sure, as long as you don't mind the effort, I have no objection. After all, I have a wide range of interests and can appreciate all kinds of things."
"Maybe if you look at a foxtail grass long enough, you'll discover a different kind of charm in it." Her eyes were full of slyness, and she looked incredibly at ease.
"Su Nianxue, your little mouth is still as eloquent as ever, not at all inferior to your younger days!" He pinched her chin, his gaze falling on her rosy lips.
“Of course, people have to face their past. That’s one of my good points; I never forget my roots.” She curled her lips, looking at him defiantly.
"Tsk tsk, Su Nianxue, you say that without even blushing."
When it comes to who in our family has the thickest skin, I'm ashamed to admit it. He gently pinched her cheek.
The two had been bickering for a while when Su Nianxue took out her watch, looked at it, and said, "Alright, I'm not going to mess with you anymore."
Let me go, I really have to go!
"I won't let go. I'd rather eat you than a steamed bun." His dark eyes were deep and unfathomable, gleaming with intense lust.
Su Nianxue...
"Stop messing around, let me tell you the truth."
Today is Hongxing's first time doing business, and we promised to support her.
"Su Nianxue, I've noticed that you're becoming quite concerned about other people's affairs these days."
With your arm always pointing outwards, aren't you afraid it'll break one day?
If you have so much free time, why don't you pay more attention to me?
Don't forget, we're the ones who sleep in the same bed and eat from the same pot, aren't we?
"We're family." Gu Yanbai was somewhat dissatisfied, thinking that all he ever did was worry about other people's affairs.
Is he transparent? What kind of nonsense is this?
"What are you jealous about now?"
When did I ever side with outsiders? I've always been on your side.
She rolled over, draped her arms loosely over his neck, and smiled sweetly at him.
"I haven't learned anything else, but I'm getting better and better at talking."
Seeing her smiling and cheerful demeanor, Gu Yanbai was actually quite pleased.
But he's always been stubborn and didn't want to be coaxed by her so quickly.
"So what? Are you going to say whether you'll buy into this or not?"
If you don't like it, then I won't...
She dragged out the last syllable, a mischievous smile in her eyes.
"I don't dislike it, it's just... so-so!" Gu Yanbai said somewhat awkwardly.
"Okay, I got it! You like it!"
She immediately released her arms from his neck and got up to leave.
But how could Gu Yanbai let her have her way? With a forceful pull, he pulled her back onto his chest.
"Gu Yanbai, let me go, I really have to go."
"Otherwise people will say I'm untrustworthy!" She punched him in the chest.
"Su Nianxue, why are you so materialistic?"
"What did I do now?" Su Nianxue looked bewildered; this sounded rather serious.
But how could she remember that she had been smiling all morning?
I wonder what I did to upset this guy again?
"Tell me, how am I being realistic?" This needs to be made clear, otherwise, we'll end up arguing for ages.
What did you just call me?
"Gu Yanbai! Aren't you called Gu Yanbai?"
"What did you call me before?"
"Oh, I understand!"
"Hey, I guess I just got used to it. I was wrong, should I change?" Su Nianxue suddenly realized.
"They always say nice things, but they never mean it."
Seeing her fawning expression, Gu Yanbai's voice unconsciously softened.
"Yan~Bai," she whispered in his ear.
Her voice was melodious and sweet, so pleasant to listen to that it calmed his burning anger.
"Let me hear you call out a few more times!" Gu Yanbai's eyes became even more profound.
"Yan~Bai, Brother Yanbai, can you let me go now?"
"Fine, go ahead! But this is a one-time thing, don't do it again." He made a show of threatening her before letting go of her hand.
"Okay, okay!"
This isn't her first day in business, so she's a little reserved and wanted us to go and give her some encouragement!
"Once she gets the hang of it, she won't need us anymore!" she said, picking up her clothes from the bedside and quickly putting them on.
"From what you're saying, you're going to stay for several more days? Until she's familiar with it?" He glanced at her sideways.
Looking at her so eager, I just can't stand it. "Wait, why are you being so enthusiastic about being someone else's wife?"
Anyone who didn't know better would think you two just came from the same bed!
When this was mentioned, Su Nianxue felt indignant on Yang Hongxing's behalf, and consequently, she also started to dislike Gu Yanbai.
"What are you talking about?"
Isn't it because Zhou Mingjie is never home?
Hongxing had no one to talk to, so she came to us because she was really desperate.
I used to think he was a good person. Now it seems... he's no good at all.
"No, what's with that look in your eyes?"
You can just say what you want to say, why are you glaring at me like that?
What did I do to you?
Besides, it wasn't me who told him to do that!
However, you are right. He has both strengths and weaknesses.
"If you say he's not a good person, then you're not wrong." Gu Yanbai turned to the side, propped his head up with his hand, and spoke to her lazily.
"People say that you become like those you associate with, you tell me..." She didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning behind her words was clear.
"Aren't you just trying to say that I'm on the same side as him?"
Su Nianxue, let me tell you, you're really wrong about this.
Although Lao Tzu was not a good person, he still had some basic principles for being a decent human being.
"Besides, this is a matter between the two of them, and we outsiders should refrain from interfering!" Gu Yanbai advised.
"Am I that stupid to meddle in other people's business?"
I couldn't bear to see Hongxing, a girl all alone and helpless, so I thought of lending a hand!
No one could understand the bitterness of a person's lonely and helpless days better than her.
