Chapter 1219: Willing to Be a Subst.i.tute
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
From the room in the corridor to the hall, there was only a gla.s.s gap, but it made Ajiu, who was walking over, freeze on the spot.
She couldn’t hear what the two people were saying inside.
But she saw it very clearly.
The two people were very close to each other.
So close that it was as if… they were stuck together.
A stuffy feeling came from her chest.
It was bloated.
Ajiu did not know how to describe that feeling at all.
It was as if… she had lost something.
She thought of a lot of words; every sentence was accusing her she for having taken up too much of her little brother’s time.
So, did little brother also want to have more time to date?
Ajiu lowered her head and looked at the tip of her feet. Hugging the little white cat in her hand, she only felt that her fingers were cold.
She did not want to stand here.
This thought was stronger than ever.
The moment the moonlight shone upon the earth, the figure of an underage person was missing from the window.
Gu Rou continued to approach Bai Zhun. Her lips were coated with a faint powder as she was smiling pitifully. It seemed that she was offering herself up as a sacrifice.
Bai Zhun shook his head. Then, his eyes darkened as he pushed her onto the ground. Looking down at Gu Rou, his voice was very cold. “I thought that Grandfather Gu’s granddaughter would at least understand what it means to be shameless. It seems that I have overestimated you.”
Gu Rou bit her lip. “I did these things because I like you. You drank so much, and I was so worried about you. Do you know?”
As she spoke, she stood up again. “I know that you are not happy every day. We are people of teh same level. Bai Zhun, you can take care of Ajiu for a while, but can you take care of her for a lifetime? She will only treat you as her brother. One day, she will fall in love with someone else. You can drink today, but what about tomorrow? Ajiu did not care about this now. You are so strict with her, and one day she will realize that the little brother in her heart, who she used to admire, has other thoughts towards her. When that time comes, what will she think of You? Bai Zhun, stay with me. I know what you are afraid of. Some secrets will only be better covered up when you have a girlfriend. Just take it as a try and give each other a chance, okay? And your body needs it, doesn’t it? You clearly had a reaction to me just now.”
“A reaction to you?” Bai Zhun heard this and turned around to look at Gu Rou. With a cold smile, he said, “You think I have a reaction to you? The only person who can make me have a reaction is the person you’re talking about. Haven’t you already a.n.a.lyzed what I’m afraid of? You should know what I was thinking when I was drunk just now. It wasn’t a reaction when you approached me, but a reaction all the time. You should be glad that your surname is Gu. Otherwise, I would have broken your hands.”
After Bai Zhun finished speaking, he raised his steps.
When Gu Rou opened her mouth again, she sounded she was about to cry. “I’m willing to be her subst.i.tute. Looking at you like this, my heart really aches.”
“Even if she’s the only one in my heart forever?” Bai Zhun’s voice was very faint.
In response, Gu Rou hummed in agreement. “I’m willing.”
Bai Zhun looked at the endless snow outside the window. He thought of how Ajiu was far away from him today.
Perhaps one day, if she really found out about this, she would hate him.
He wouldn’t even know how to keep her.
Bai Zhun clenched his fingers as he thought of this.
Gu Rou saw that he seemed to be showing signs of loosening, she thus said in a low voice, “As long as you need me, I will appear. Whether it’s to replace her or to prevent her from hating you, you should be able to see that Ajiu likes to follow Gu Cheng. She might not be able to notice it now, but what does that mean? One day, she will tell you that she is going to fall in love. What will you do then? Was she still holding on to such thoughts like she was doing now? You should know what kind of person Ajiu was. The things she liked should not change because of anyone, right? Moreover, Bai Zhun, say something. When you are with her, do you really not feel tired? There are many things that she does not understand at all. You are five years apart. You will always be ahead of her. She will never understand you. Why not give it a try? Perhaps after a long time, you will be able to forget her? Even if you can’t forget her, I will accompany you. I will definitely accompany you.”
A long time had pa.s.sed since then.
Bai Zhun did not speak. Only his black hair covered his eyes.
Gu Rou took a step forward and stretched out her hand. It was as if she wanted to hug Bai Zhun from behind, but before her hand touched Bai Zhun’s waist, the youth’s indifferent voice sounded again. There were only two words: “No need.”
Gu Rou paused. Her eyes looked at him in surprise. “Bai Zhun…”
“I’m not willing.” Bai Zhun lowered his head and picked up the red wine beside him. His tone was indifferent. “I’m not willing to treat anyone as a subst.i.tute for her.”
Because there were some people who could not be replaced.
Even if he could not get her, he would not use such a method to insult his girl.
His Ajiu had been sitting in his arms since she was young, obediently accompanying him. There was only one Ajiu in the whole world who would feed him.
It was really funny. Why did he need other people to accompany him?
This kind of thing was originally taught to him by Ajiu… If he wanted to accompany her, it was also his Ajiu who would accompany him.
Looking at the tall and straight back that did not touch her at all, Gu Rou’s hands clenched tightly. Never had she begged a boy so humbly before.
How many people in the school were pursuing her, and they even wanted those little girls from outside the school.
Which one of them did not pamper her?
Why did Bai Zhun not accept her!
He was already so drunk that he could barely walk, but he actually did not agree to her request!
Bai Zhun had indeed drunk a lot, so that day, he did not go to Ajiu’s room as usual to cover ajiu with the quilt.
The night gradually darkened. Ajiu sat in front of the wooden door and did not return to the bed. Her small face looked somewhat dazed.
With her mind occupied by the scene just down, she kept swaying on the street.
But this time, no matter how she swayed, she could not shake off those scenes.
She remembered what Gu Cheng had told her about what couples would do.
In the past, when her little brother kissed her forehead, she had never thought that it was a big deal.
The little brother had said that when he went out in the morning, there would be a good morning kiss. At night, there would also be a good night kiss, which would fall on her hair.
But she did not know that if the little brother did the same thing to someone else.
She would be so sad.
It was as if she was sick and her chest hurt.
She didn’t want her little brother to find a girlfriend.
But this thought was too selfish.
It was really too selfish.
“Xiao Bai, what should I do?”
