Chapter 512 The Childe in the Tang Family Lives Off A Girl 79
The living room is deadly silent.
There is no telling how long has passed before Zeng Xue trembles and asks.
“Is… Is Senior Wuyou usually this scary when she’s angry?”
That’s horrible. Holy God! Although Wuyou doesn’t say anything, everything about her indicates that she doesn’t want to talk to Zeng Xue and Gungun. Or else, she will kill them and throw their body into the ocean to be the shark’s food.
“I haven’t seen Wuyou get angry in a long time…” Gungun swallows, “Do you think she’s jealous of you?”
Zeng Xue looks at him like he is an idiot, “I don’t think it’s about jealousy anymore. It is clear that she’s very, very angry…”
“Then she is jealous!” Gungun is still in a good fantasy. However, he also knows when to stop, “Okay, you’re going home tomorrow.”
Zeng Xue is speechless.
Although the wretched man is unethical, she feels that based on the situation that Wuyou is in, she’d better go home! As Zeng Xue is going through the security check, she turns her head and sees Gungun looking happy, constantly feeling that he is going to be unlucky.
Childe Lang doesn’t feel that way. He only feels that although Wuyou is angry this time, it is also a good sign. After all, he has the impression that Wuyou is seldom so angry and she always looks as if nothing matters to her.
Wuyou doesn’t know that Zeng Xue has gone. When Gungun tells her the news the next day, she is stunned.
“Is she mad at me?”
Gungun’s eyes flash, “You didn’t say anything wrong! It’s only natural that you scolded her because of me.”
“That’s not what you said the other day.” Wuyou looks at him grudgingly.
Wuyou thinks in secret, “You plainly said that as long as you were nice to her, it didn’t matter what she did to you…”
“Wuyou…” Gungun changes the subject, “Why were you so angry before?”
Wuyou purses the corner of her mouth, “I’m not angry.”
“You’re angry.” Gungun approaches her face, “Why?”
Wuyou frowns, “Well, are you happy…”
“Well, I think you must be mad because she wasn’t nice to me.” Gungun smiles, “Look, there’s no other girl in the world who’s as nice to me as you are, is there?”
Wuyou nods, wondering what he is going to say. Unexpectedly, Gungun suddenly stands up and stretches as if he has just said nothing.
“I’m going to take a nap. Let’s go to a bar tonight. The one I went to with Zeng Xue before is pretty interesting.”
Wuyou is at a bit of a loss. She isn’t very good at dealing with her emotions. That is mainly because she usually doesn’t have any emotions. However, she is suddenly very angry this time… According to Gungun, she is angry because Zeng Xue has treated him badly.
But Wuyou feels that there should be more reasons for her to be like that. She ponders on it, goes back to her bedroom, and locks the door. Then she posts on an emotion forum describing a general overview of her situation, asking everyone in the forum what is wrong with her. Her post arouses many netizens’ attention and Wuyou reads the comments one by one.
The comment at 1st ranking says, “The poster is an elementary school student, right? Why does she ask for an answer to such an obvious question?”
The comment at 2nd ranking goes, “It’s obvious that you are jealous! You like that boy, which you surely should admit.”
The comment at 3rd ranking says, “You all do not see the point. I think the poster is a typical angelic b***h. It is clear that she likes the boy whom she has grown up with. However, she pretends to be a good sister to help the boy chase after girls.”
The comment at 4th ranking says, “I agree with the comment above. Poster, if you like the boy, just tell him directly. If he doesn’t like you, you can just let him go. However, it will be a blessing if he happens to like you as well. In that case, you both won’t harm other girls.”
Wuyou is speechless.
So the reason why she was angry before is that she likes Gungun, right? But doesn’t she always like him? Wuyou can’t figure it out.
In the evening, Gungun insists on going to the bar. Wuyou, who isn’t at ease about allowing him to go there alone, naturally has to accompany him there. After that, Gungun takes advantage of Wuyou’s protection and drinks wine one after another. He keeps drinking. Till the time he leaves the bar, he can’t even stand stably. It is Wuyou who puts him on her back and brings him home.
“Wuyou… Wuyou…” After Gungun is shoved into the blanket, he is not well-behaved at all. As Wuyou is pouring water for him, he sneaks out again.
Wuyou holds him down and feeds him the water. Gungun stretches his neck vigorously.
“I won’t drink it. I won’t!”
“Drink it and you won’t feel bad anymore.” Wuyou makes tea to dispel the alcohol for him.
Gungun hugs her and grunts, “Why don’t you like me? Wuyou! If you like me, how nice it will be. We can then be together.”
“…” Wuyou looks down at the teenager in her arms, who is squinting his eyes and looking at her blushingly.
It takes a few seconds before Wuyou whispers, “I do like you.”
“You’re lying!” Gungun accuses her, “Even though… Even though I don’t remember anything, I know you only agree to be with me because of what Dad said. You even agreed to marry me because Dad told you to do so!”
“No!” Wuyou says immediately in a quite loud voice.
Gungun opens his eyes wide to hide his excitement and asks, “Then tell me why!”
Normally, Wuyou could have noticed that something is wrong with Gungun. However, she is so confused right now that she has to go with her instincts.
“I do like you.”
Gungun continues to pretend, “Really? Do you like me as if a woman loves a man? Do you like me as a lover? Is it the reason why you agree to marry me and bear my children after staying with me?”
“I am supposed to marry you.”
F**k! They are going back again.
“If you are asked to choose for yourself without Dad’s order, will you prefer another man?” He suddenly pushes Wuyou away very angrily, “You’re just like that! You’re not with me because you like me. You’re with me because Dad asked you to do that. And I don’t want that kind of love from you! I don’t need it!”
After that, he tilts his head, closes his eyes, and doesn’t move at all.
“No… It’s not like that.” Wuyou shakes her head helplessly and tries to say something. However, when she sees that Gungun has fallen asleep, she has to sit in a daze for half a day.
It isn’t until Gungun feels that he can’t keep acting to be asleep anymore that he senses that the bed is bounced back and then there comes the sound indicating the door is closed. He opens one of his eyes sneakily and lets out a sigh of relief after confirming that Wuyou has left.
“Holy God! It’s a strong dose of medicine. Wuyou, you should be enlightened…”
Wuyou hasn’t slept all night. The next morning, when Gungun goes downstairs, he sees that she is sitting squarely on the couch in the living room with a rabbit in her arms.
“I didn’t disturb you last night, right?” Gungun asks with a pretentious yawn.
Wuyou looks at him very seriously, “You said I don’t like you.”
Is Wuyou that straightforward?
Gungun twitches the corner of his mouth, “Why… Why did I say that?”
“You said I was with you because Dad asked me to.” Wuyou frowns, “Is it because you don’t remember the past? You wouldn’t have asked such a question before.”
“…Maybe!” Gungun senses that Wuyou seems to take this issue seriously and simply continues, “You also said that it is because I don’t have any memories between the two of us. From a lover’s point of view alone, I don’t think that you like me.”
“Wuyou, if you don’t like me, then please don’t be with me. I don’t want my lover to be with me because my elders ordered her to. I will marry someone I love. And if you don’t love me, it won’t be fair to either of us.”
Wuyou opens her mouth, “No! I want to be with you, I don’t want to be with anyone else!”
“Is it because you’re used to it?” Gungun is happy in secret, “You’re used to it because we’ve been together since we were kids. However, what if one day a guy pursues you and you find out you don’t actually like me at all. What should you do if you like someone else then?”
“No, it won’t be like that!” Wuyou immediately shakes her head and says very firmly, “I know I like you! I didn’t know it before. But I do now.”
She suddenly releases the rabbit and swoops up to hug Gungun.
“It’s okay if you don’t remember me. As long as I remember you, it will be fine! I will be very, very good to you in the future. You can’t like anyone else except me.”
Originally, Gungun is quite excited that Wuyou has taken the initiative to hug him. After he hears Wuyou’s words, his heart softens and he feels distressed. His Wuyou must have been enlightened and she fears that he won’t want her.
“OK.” Gungun’s voice is a little dull. It seems that he is squeezing it out of his throat, “Then you should remember that whether I can regain my memory or not, we’re going to be together and you’re going to like me.”
He hugs Wuyou with his backhand, “We’ll get married when we graduate from college!”
“Yeah.” Wuyou doesn’t feel like she is selling herself short at all as she nods.
Gungun is happy instantly. He hugs Wuyou in his arms and rubs her, “To commemorate your confession with me today, let’s go for a big dinner!”
Tang Duo receives a video call from her son early in the morning. After she clicks on it, she sees a fancy Michelin restaurant, candles, wine, and steak.
“What are you two celebrating?” She is curious. Her son is sitting with Wuyou, who is clearly drunk and blushing.
“We are celebrating that we’re together!” Gungun holds up the glass, “Mom, this is your daughter-in-law.”
“Ah?” Tang Duo asks, “Have you regained your memory?”
“No.” It is Wuyou who is talking instead. After that, she hugs Gungun in her arms, “Whether he remembers me or not, we have to be together.”
Tang Duo doesn’t know what to say.
The video chat is hung up. Gungun gets a text from his mom.
“Go to the bathroom now and call me. Be quick!”
Gungun is speechless.
He has to tell Wuyou that he is going to the bathroom. Then he calls Tang Duo from inside.
“What did you do to Wuyou? Why did she say that?” As soon as the call gets through, Tang Duo asks, “If you dare to play with Wuyou’s feelings, I’ll break your legs. And you got Wuyou drunk, didn’t you? What do you want?”
Gungun is momentarily shocked by his mother’s question. Frankly speaking, he hasn’t even thought about it. However, now…
Now that Wuyou has admitted that she likes him, does that make it okay for him to do this and that?
“Lang Xuanyuan!” Tang Duo is in a rage, “Why don’t you say something? Am I right? Lang Ruoxian! Lang Ruoxian. Hurry up and book me a flight ticket. I’m going to Mi Country and break that kid’s legs!”
“Mother, Mother!” Gungun is shocked, “Don’t get excited, I haven’t said a word yet.”
“Then you say it!” Tang Duo is raging.
Gungun says in a particularly sincere tone, “I have no memory. But I can’t fight off my instinct! My instinct is to like Wuyou. The reason why I said I was pursuing someone else previously is that I was trying to see if I’d fall for someone else! It turned out that it was impossible. Although I can’t remember my past, I still like Wuyou.”
“Mom, seriously, I was especially happy when I found that out. So I confessed my love to Wuyou. She was happy too! So we came out to celebrate it.”
Wuyou finds that Gungun is quite excited after coming back from the bathroom. As soon as she gets home and finishes her shower, she sees the teenager push the door in while being half naked.
