Si Wan spread her hands, looking completely innocent, and then said jokingly, "What did I say? You keep nagging me like this, but I haven't said a word."
Gou Xi thought for a moment, then reached out and poked Si Wan's shoulder, muttering softly, "What about you and Fu Wenzhi?"
"Fu Wenzhi?" Si Wan looked at Gou Xi with a strange expression, not understanding.
Si Wan is incredibly perceptive and insightful when it comes to other people's feelings, but she's much less perceptive when it comes to her own.
Gou Xi realized that Si Wan was not joking with her when she saw Si Wan's blank expression.
She leaned back, unable to bear it any longer, but didn't bring it up.
It's more interesting to realize some things yourself, and besides, seeing Fu Wenzhi get his comeuppance is what his friends are most happy to see.
Fu Wenzhi was always the "other people's child" since he was a child, and they were constantly being compared to others.
And it's still not as good as them.
Si Wan looked at Gou Xi, who was suddenly becoming unclear again, and gave her a strange look.
As the recollection ended, Si Wan watched Lu Ze rushing towards her and slowly turned her body slightly to the side, giving them space.
No one is as fortunate as my mother to have been able to safely enter the army at the very top of the ranks.
"Could he at least let you know he's safe when he goes to a safe place last time?"
Looking at Gou Xi, who was not excited at all, Fu Wenzhi realized how wise his decision to bring this master to his home was.
Fu Wenzhi knew, of course, that Gou Xi would agree with him, but he wanted to hear the same answer from Yu Biao.
However, Yu Biaoxu, who was standing next to Gou Xi, suddenly spoke up and said, "Just because you're afraid, are you going to agree to end it?"
"I wanted to see if he had any expression on his face, why was he being so serious?"
Those who are alive are always consumed by sorrow.
Gou Xi rolled her eyes upon hearing this, and then ignored Fu Wenzhi.
He looked just like any other classmate of mine, troubled by love.
"Or he might just press the button to let you know he's safe, but he won't actually speak or acknowledge you."
"It's clearly the first one, but it's the one that's bad at opening the door."
Fu Wenzhi could only ruffle Gou Xi's hair as usual and say with a smile, "He hasn't answered you yet. Is he willing to come to your house?"
Perhaps understanding Yu Biao's feelings is like understanding your mother and father back then.
Without the pastries made by the chef as a topic of conversation, Gou Xi and I would have even less time and excuse to talk.
Lu Ze was also thinking about that kind of thing, which is why he hadn't responded to Si Wan.
Fu Wenzhi nodded upon hearing this, and said as if it were unintentional, "But you heard recently that our chef hasn't resigned yet, and now the one making those pastries is my eldest apprentice."
Yu Biaoxu's patience is the worst. I grew up with Yu Biaoxu and missed so many ups and downs. Naturally, I would let go at that time. So all I can say is this.
That was the path Lu Ze had always hesitated to choose, and he would never turn back because of romantic feelings.
"Even if he wants to talk to you, if he has a release button under his body, he can press it when he needs you."
Gou Xi's eyes conveyed no emotion whatsoever; they were completely open and honest.
Yu Biao blushed furiously and kept walking inside, trying to throw the person beneath him off.
Fu Wenzhi had been quietly following Si Wan around, holding a glass of wine, without anyone noticing.
"The outcome of everything is like an unopened Pandora's box; only when it's opened do we know what's on the outside of the box."
Fu Wenzhi immediately realized that Gou Xi was still not enlightened and that he needed to work harder to make her feel the same way about him.
Gou Xi raised her head and said, "That pastry was just the right amount of sweetness. Sometimes you really want to bring the Chen family's chef to your house, but it's a pity that doing so wouldn't be very kind."
But that time, Gou Xi just stood still, watching the tug-of-war behind her without making any moves, which didn't seem strange to Yu Biaoxu standing next to her.
Gou Xi shook her head.
But Gou Xi was too perceptive when it came to matters of the heart. No matter how many times Fu Wenzhi had hinted at it, Gou Xi understood.
Looking at the pastries in Si Wan's hand, Rao said uninterestedly, "Does he really hate those pastries that much? I've seen him eat them and they've gone bad several times."
Normally, if Lu Ze were to encounter such obstruction, Gou Xi would have already gone down to help him.
Upon hearing that, Yu Biao quickly turned around and looked at Fu Wenzhi with a look of surprise, saying, "Really? Have I started working for Qiwojia yet? If not, come find me."
That middle school graduation ceremony was naturally a mess. The little kids drank a lot of alcohol, and the little ones were holding Yu Biao, crying and shouting.
Then she took a sip of juice and said, "If Xixi really disliked it, she would have yelled at you to break up the fight already."
Thinking of that, Fu Wenzhi, without much concealment, said, "Now that I'm working for your company, he can't just come to your house to eat the pastries anymore."
He went to another place, picked up the best pastry at the banquet, and put it in his mouth.
Yu Biao could understand Lu Ze's feelings.
But Si Wan also knew that it was because I had taken some kind of strength-boosting pill that my strength had been decreasing over the years.
"Should we go down and help Lu Ze?"
When he said that, Yu Biaoxu kept his eyes on Gou Xi, trying to see a hint of his own expression in her eyes, but he couldn't.
Just like one's own mother.
"Yu Biao wanted to be vague. I had long wanted to get to the bottom of things but there was no result, but I still went on to pursue him without hesitation."
Just like Si Huai.
When people return home, they may find only a large box, or even a business card—a string of emotionless and cold numbers—that remains even after their bodies have been brought back.
The matter was thus dropped.
Neither of us is destined to meet the end; knowing there are no tigers in the mountains, we still venture into the tiger's den.
Gou Xi shrugged her shoulders, trying to shake off the mischievous hand under her head, but in the end, she could only swallow her anger and say for the sake of the pastries: "You went to his house anyway, why did you have to say such things?"
As Si Wan spoke, her eyes reddened, and she kept rubbing against Yu Biao like a spoiled puppy.
The students around me looked at me with the same strange gazes they had for me, as if I were a silent observer. We had never seen the Lu family heir like that before.
The two hands holding Lu Ze were like unbreakable pincers, not moving an inch.
