But Gu Qingxu had to wait for a long time before the staff came in with a small food cart decorated with carvings and gold.
"Enjoy your meal."
The other party went out and closed the door.
Gu Qingxu sat up and asked, "Why did you go out for so long? Did you meet anyone?"
Zhumian opened the lid of the lunch box and said nonchalantly, "Why, are you afraid that other men will see you lying on my bed?"
Gu Qingxu laughed: "It would be nice if you could really see it."
Xiaomian sat down and took out the pointed chopsticks from the cutlery box: "You didn't tell me when you came with me, but now you blame me for not giving you a legitimate status?"
Gu Qingxu coughed lightly.
Zhumian sat at the end of the bed: "Didn't you say you brought me a gift? Where is the gift?"
He stood up and looked through the paper bag he had brought with him. Sitting at the end of the bed, he felt like he was being pulled out of the ground.
She watched him pull out a long black velvet jewelry box and hand it to her.
As soon as he opened it, he said leisurely, "A necklace."
Inside the box was a silver necklace. The pendant of the necklace was a small statue of a goddess with an elegant figure, fair skin, graceful and noble, so exquisite that every part of her was reflecting light.
She casually asked, "Venus?"
Gu Qingxu hummed softly: "I feel like your neck is empty."
I don’t know what I was thinking about when I was sleeping during the day, with my eyelids half closed.
"You put it on me."
She casually lifted her hair, turned her back to Gu Qingxu, revealing a section of her slender neck.
Gu Qingxu carefully pushed her unlifted hair aside, and felt the cool touch of the necklace.
She looked back at him.
Gu Qingxu took out another ring box from the paper bag: "It actually has a second way to wear it."
He pressed the switch with his slender jade-like fingers, and the mechanism popped open with a click, revealing the flower ring.
He approached her, picked up the small statue with his knuckles, and buckled the circle of flower rings onto the silver statue of Venus. With a gentle click, Venus had a halo wreath wrapped around her.
It looks very much like a European Rococo-style oil painting, with the portrait surrounded by clusters of flowers, prosperous and beautiful, unlike any scene in the mortal world.
The wreath and Venus reflected each other's luster, which was more dazzling than when Venus was alone.
The design of combining two into one is so wonderful that I was surprised even when I was sleeping during the day, looking at the necklace around my neck that is full of love and design.
Gu Qingxu's eyes were deep: "To me, you are my Venus. I don't know if my love for you is a halo, but I hope it can make you happy."
Zhumian felt a sudden warmth in his eyes, but he chuckled to himself, "Someone once thought I was worthless."
Gu Qingxu looked at her steadily and said without hesitation: "It's that person's fault. He is blind and offended you."
His eyes were firm and unwavering: "Whether there is this wreath or not, whether there are others who like you or not, you are Venus."
When Zhu Mian met his eyes, all she could see was the resentment and desire for revenge during this period of time, the contempt and torture she had suffered in the past, and the fact that another person had blinded her eyes.
From an unequal relationship, she was left with a conditioned reflex of fear and trepidation. She was afraid of true love and always kept a wait-and-see distance from welcoming a healthy relationship.
Gu Qingxu is very old-fashioned, but in another sense he is too perfect. He is emotionally stable, modest, considerate, and patient. He is a gentleman born from a strict family education, completely different from the person she once deeply loved.
Suddenly, Xiaomian said, "It's broken."
Gu Qingxu was puzzled: "What's broken?"
She covered up her confusion with a joke: "I'll call you to the hotel, and you can make love with me in the hotel."
Gu Qingxu smiled: "I just want you to be happy."
Zhu Mian looked away, afraid of being seen crying by his burning and sincere eyes. She muttered, "The hotel only gave us a pair of chopsticks."
Gu Qingxu leaned over and found a pair in another lunch box: "There's another pair here."
Xiaomian suddenly remembered: "Why did you call me puppy last time?"
"Because that's how I saved it on my phone." He explained seriously, but suddenly realized, "Do you remember the last time you got drunk?"
Zhuomian drank a sip of mineral water and said stubbornly, "I don't remember."
Gu Qingxu didn't delve into it, but just smiled and asked her curiously, "What did you save for me?"
She picked up the phone without hesitation and opened the address book to show it to Gu Qingxu in front of him.
Gu Qingxu came over to take a look.
Four large, bright words appeared before his eyes.
——Pure Love Princess
Gu Qingxu: “?”
Zhuomian was eating ramen in a good mood. Gu Qingxu smiled and lifted her hair for her.
"Can a pure princess have a title?"
"No, I'll call you after my husband dies."
Gu Qingxu said righteously: "When will your husband die?"
Xiaomian turned around and looked at him: "...Why are you so anxious?"
"It's urgent, preferably tonight." He responded seriously without laughing.
"Gu Lu, why don't you do it yourself? It's too hard to wait like this."
"You already called me Gu Lu. The best way to maximize benefits is to wait for him to die."
Sleeping during the day: "...You are quite professional."
Gu Qingxu also said seriously: "Of course."
She put down her chopsticks and sat opposite Gu Qingxu: "Isn't it good to have an affair? You are very happy and I am also very happy."
Gu Qingxu sat upright, his face serious. "What you steal is not yours. According to Article 264 of the Criminal Law, if a person steals a large amount of property, or commits multiple thefts or burglary, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years and/or a fine. If the amount is huge, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years and a fine."
He added, "I committed burglary, and the amount involved is extremely large. I might be sentenced to more than ten years or life imprisonment."
I sleep silently during the day and feel choked up.
But his serious face made it seem as if he was really judging someone.
