Chapter 18.4: Attraction Part 4
Edited by: AL13N
Names mentioned in this chapter :
–苏芮 (sù ruì) – Su Rui, our female protagonist
–顾煜城 (gù yù chéng)- Gu Yu Cheng, the male lead
Gu Yu Cheng initially thought that these regrets would gradually subside after a while. But, unexpectedly in this period of time, the feelings of regrets intensified even more in his heart.
He didn’t want to miss this girl out. That was the only idea in Gu Yu Cheng’s mind these days about Su Rui.
Thus, as how an excellent entrepreneur would make a decision, Gu Yu Cheng called Su Rui.
But, he used a very shoddy excuse without thinking.
Su Rui was stunned when she heard what Gu Yu Cheng had said.
After meeting her, this person’s mindset has changed and he suddenly realised he wants to get married?
If she didn’t misheard , this was what he meant right?
“I’m sorry that I didn’t consider dating and marriage before. From now on, I will treat this issue and our relationship seriously.” Gu Yu Cheng promised earnestly.
“What kind of relationship do we have?” Su Rui asked.
Obviously, Su Rui’s question stumped Gu Yu Cheng.
Hearing this question, Gu Yu Cheng froze for a moment.
“Any kind of relationship is fine.” Gu Yu Cheng said after he thought about it. His tone did not seem that he casually said it.
“It can be the relationship of being familiar with each other, getting to know and understanding each other as a blind date” He paused and added, “or, if you like, it can also be considered as dating.”
Su Rui: !
Although she could faintly sense the direction where Gu Yu Cheng was heading, Su Rui’s heart still couldn’t help but thump when she actually heard the words being spoken.
A relationship that leads to dating?
Why does this sentence make her heart race?
Su Rui murmured to herself.
Strange, did Gu Yu Cheng say anything different? He didn’t say anything else, did he?
There weren’t mushy and highly effective sentences like “I like you.” and “be my girlfriend.”
Or is it that when an overly outstanding person, that has an appearance which would make one’s heart race, would have a filter whenever he talks as he stands in front of you?
However, regardless of whether there was a filter or his appearance made her heart race, it would be a separate matter when she seriously thought about the issue of dating.
“Like what I have said before, I don’t dislike the idea of getting to know my other half through a blind date. Previously, I continued getting in touch with you mainly because I feel that you are a good man, a good partner, and it wasn’t because of the blind date, our parents or our families.”
Now that they have mentioned this, Su Rui did not hide what she thought.
“If you are here because of the previous misunderstanding, or because of the respect you have for me as a blind date, then…”
“I have feelings for you.” Gu Yu Cheng interrupted Su Rui and said.
His tone was a little stiff, but it doesn’t seem that he was lying.
Hearing what Gu Yu Cheng has said, Su Rui’s face turned red uncontrollably.
Cough. Cough. This is normal. This is normal.
It wasn’t like she was made of rock, especially when she face a sudden confession from the opposite sex. Uh, it’s just a confession. It should barely be counted as a confession, right? She would be a little excited as long as she didn’t dislike him, right?
Calm down, calm down!
Don’t be moved by excellence. Don’t give in to attractiveness.
Su Rui muttered twice in her heart, and lowered her head slightly. She looked at the side, and tried very hard not to let Gu Yu Cheng see her slightly panicked expression.
Only when she felt that she managed to calm her mind, Su Rui stopped pretending that she was considering and looked up at Gu Yu Cheng.
“You mean that you intend to date someone? And you are planning to look for a girlfriend, right?” Su Rui asked and blinked towards Gu Yu Cheng.
Su Rui thought that it would be better to reconfirm with him.
Though one may have several relationships before marriage. But,Gu Yu Cheng doesn’t look like that kind of scumbag[1].
Nevertheless from the beginning, the blind date was based on the intention of getting engaged and married, Su Rui thought it would be better to be more prudent.
“Yes.”
With you.
Gu Yu Cheng smiled and added silently to himself when he saw the girl’s cautious and inquisitive expression.
