Once everyone had left, Gu Ming pulled me to sit on a bench under the shade of a tree. My mind was still in a jumble.
"What exactly happened?"
Gu Ming leaned back against the chair and slightly pursed his lips. He lazily brushed his hair back.
"Actually, there's not much to explain. I'm a love child."
"My mom met someone unsuitable when she was young. That person easily took advantage of her and then abandoned her."
"It wasn't until I was seven that he acknowledged me because he couldn't have a son."
I stared blankly, unable to believe that the melodrama from the television was unfolding right before my eyes.
"...It's not your fault. You should grow up well."
After a long pause, I managed to offer a dry consolation.
He chuckled lightly, "I know, so I live freely."
Thinking about his usual arrogance, I nodded in agreement. Then I recalled Qian Yaoyao's words and felt a thought spark in my mind.
"Is it because of your mother's situation that you feel what you gain won't be cherished? So you resist getting close?"
He was taken aback for a moment and then playfully scolded me.
"Don't listen to her nonsense; she's just stirring trouble. It's actually her who scares me."
"Although she's my sister and treats me well, I have to admit... she's really good at fishing."
"I've watched her get things only to toss them aside without cherishing them. When she encounters something she can't shake off, she drags me into her drama. After seeing so much, it's hard not to feel apprehensive."
I was astonished. "That day at the café, I saw her crying against you..."
"Yeah, because of the fish she can't get rid of."
My worldview was shaken, and I fell silent. In my ear, Gu Ming continued to murmur his troubles.
"I originally wanted to take it slow, let you discover more of my good qualities and appreciate my inner self."
"So I wanted to include you in everything, hoping you'd see different sides of me."
"I just didn't expect that you have no patience at all, and my plans got completely disrupted."
"Sigh! Forget it; as long as you don't abandon me, anything is fine."
He buried his head into my neck and rubbed against me like a large dog seeking comfort, suddenly looking very pitiful.
Such a rebellious person would make such a gesture. My heart instantly softened into a mess.
However, I still have a question.
"How does your sister know my nickname? And how does she know which kindergarten I attended?"
Gu Ming looked at me with a hint of resentment.
"Don't you really remember? Before returning to the Qian Family, I was also in that school."
"There was this annoying girl who tricked me into thinking that my eyes looked like the stars in the sky, and she was the little star, saying we would be together forever."
No way, could I really be that charming?
Seeing my disbelief, Gu Ming couldn't help but laugh in frustration.
"Back then, you called me Little Mingming and said you loved me the most, not even looking at anyone else."
"That's all nonsense. I can recognize you at a glance now, but you have no memory of me at all."
"So this love based on appearances is indeed unreliable."
I strained to recall and combined it with old family photos, gasping in disbelief.
"...You were that quiet little boy who looked like a doll?"
Gu Ming smirked mischievously: "Are you suffering from dementia?"
I was so shocked that my mouth fell open.
No way, the change is too drastic.
It's like Conan growing up to be Piccolo.
How am I supposed to recognize him?
But did I really like him that early?
I truly haven't forgotten my original intention, fixating on the same crooked tree.
"You see, no matter how you change, I will fall in love at first sight."
"This isn't love for appearances; it's clearly an attraction from the soul."
"Exactly, so what are you still struggling with?"
I walked around him seriously.
Gu Ming smiled nonchalantly.
"Should I thank heaven for not turning into someone you wouldn't like?"
He didn't take the bait.
But his eyes sparkled with delight at my words.
I took his hand and looked deeply into his eyes.
"Gu Ming, I'm not your sister, and you're not your mother."
"Trust me, we will walk our own path together."
"As long as you don't let go, I won't let go either."
Gu Ming stared at me for a long while before finally looking away. My hand touched my heart, and I sighed in resignation.
"Why do I feel like I'm still as easy to fool as I was when I was a child?"
"Who’s fooling you? I'm being sincere."
"Well, if you're sincere, does that mean I don't need to hold back anymore?"
He suddenly leaned in ambiguously closer.
"...What do you want to do?"
"What do you think?"
He gently breathed into my ear and mischievously pecked at my slightly parted lips.
"There are so many rumors about me flying around outside; shouldn't I prove something?"
I felt a sweat break out. My heart raced, and I forced a laugh, showing genuine regret.
"I'm sorry, but it's not convenient for me."
Gu Ming irritably pinched my face and finally stopped teasing. He leaned back against the chair, casually crossed his legs, and happily hummed a tune. His magnetic and pleasant singing voice carried an indescribable sense of comfort. It was this lazy demeanor, this relaxed swagger that was most captivating.
As I watched, I gradually felt parched.
"...Um, my stomach hurts a bit."
I looked at him eagerly and murmured softly.
Gu Ming paused: "Want me to rub it for you?"
I shook my head, blushing as I trembled and reached out my hand.
"You touch me."
Gu Ming didn't move, looking at me with an amused expression as I let my hand slip under his shirt.
Oh my! It's been half a year.
I finally felt the neatly arranged abs like smooth pebbles! The touch was slippery and the muscle tone even. My excitement made me instantly forget the pain of my period, and my mood lifted immediately.
Seeing him so cooperative, I couldn't help but push my luck.
I stared at the Adam's apple moving in his neck, my voice barely above a whisper. "Can I plant a little strawberry?"
Gu Ming's pupils trembled. He didn't change his posture, merely snorted coldly through his nose. "Girlfriend, can you not tease me?"
I sighed softly and withdrew my hand in disappointment. "I was wrong, please don't be angry. Don't ignore me for a whole week like last time."
Gu Ming paused, turned his head away, and took a deep breath. Finally, he pulled open his collar and leaned closer. "I really give up; I've lost to you."
"Let's find a more secluded spot."
I happily lunged at him. He shuddered all over, his gaze suddenly darkening.
He covered my eyes in silence, looking extremely aggrieved. "Don't glow green; be careful or I'll turn into a wolf."
"And don't talk; I won't compromise again."
"...You dog, I'm really afraid one day you'll play me to death."
I laughed and fell onto him.
Alright, boyfriend, we have plenty of time ahead of us. Let's walk hand in hand, maintaining our love for each other as we move towards our forever.
(The End)
