After finishing his words, Gu Zhihan directly pulled Mengmeng away.
Heaven knows, what he despised the most was when others treated Mengmeng like she was his little sister.
Did he really look that old?
The man immediately got stuck in a rut, and his handsome face became quite unsightly.
"Um, what’s wrong?" Mengmeng looked up at him somewhat blankly.
Gu Zhihan looked down and locked eyes with her before he couldn’t resist voicing his inner thoughts, "Do I really look very old?"
"Ah?" Mengmeng was taken aback by his question and after a short pause, she scrutinized him seriously, then nodded slightly, "It seems like... a little bit..."
"Say that again?" Gu Zhihan’s eyes suddenly narrowed dangerously, as if he could pick her up and throw her into the trash at any moment.
Mengmeng immediately became frightened and swallowed hard, quickly correcting herself, "I was wrong... How could hubby possibly look old, when it’s clearly my fault for looking too youthful, making people mistake me for a middle school student, and treating me like your sister."
Compared to being tormented by him to the point of death at night, Mengmeng thought it was better for her to admit defeat right now.
"That’s a good explanation." Gu Zhihan was finally satisfied.
Mengmeng couldn’t help but roll her eyes in a corner where he couldn’t see.
It’s obviously that he looks old and mature!
Still not admitting it!
Meanwhile, not far away.
Jiang Yibai stood under a camphor tree, watching the affectionate couple, his usually sunny eyes filled with loss.
She had graduated, yet she hadn’t said a single congratulatory word to him.
It’s true, after all, he was nothing more than a supporting character in her life.
He had thought about letting go, but could the emotions that had built up over time be let go so easily in a day or two?
If it really was that easy, then there wouldn’t be so many lovelorn women in the world.
At that moment, Cheng Suisui suddenly ran out from behind the tree, holding a bunch of baby’s breath, and with a bend in her brows and eyes, happily handed the flowers to him, "Happy graduation!"
Jiang Yibai looked at the flowers, then at Cheng Suisui.
The girl’s usually pale cheeks were now flushed with two blossoms of red, and her misty eyes glittered in the sunlight, expectantly signaling for him to take the flowers.
Jiang Yibai hesitated for a moment before, as if possessed, he reached out and took the baby’s breath from her.
But the moment he got the flowers in his hands, he regretted it—why would he take a girl’s flowers for no reason?
Jiang Yibai wanted to give them back, but seeing how happy she looked, and considering she was a girl and also Mengmeng’s good friend, he didn’t want to snub her too much, so he abandoned that thought.
Jiang Yibai tugged at the corners of his mouth as he spoke.
"No worries, not at all," Cheng Suisui hurriedly waved her hand, but inside, little deer started to crash about.
The person she liked had accepted her flowers!
Considering that he had even accompanied her to watch the meteor shower all night before, Cheng Suisui couldn’t help but get carried away with her thoughts.
Could this mean that he actually had a bit of a liking for her?
Should she take the chance to confess?
Once this thought appeared, it spread like wildfire and couldn’t be contained.
After hesitating for a while, Cheng Suisui finally couldn’t hold back. She nervously licked her lips, twisting her dress with her small hands, took a deep breath, and then looked up to speak to him, "Um, do you have time later? I, I would like to invite you to dinner."
She had made up her mind!
She wanted to find a place to confess!
She had already missed one opportunity to confess before, and she didn’t want to miss another!
