In the end, their chat concluded with Gu Zhiqi agreeing to return to Haicheng first after coming back to the country.
After finishing his conversation with Gu Huaijin, Gu Zhiqi began to look through the documents sent by Wei Jingyu.
Meanwhile, Shen Tong sat next to Gu Zhiqi, chin propped on her hands, staring unblinkingly at him.
As Gu Zhiqi looked at the documents, he occasionally let out light clicks of his tongue.
Seeing this, curiosity colored the depths of Shen Tong’s eyes, "Little Fairy, what are you looking at?"
Hearing Shen Tong’s address for her, Gu Zhiqi suddenly shifted her gaze from the phone, raised her eyebrows, and looked at Shen Tong, "What did you call me?"
Shen Tong blinked gently, and after a two-second pause as if remembering something, she spoke obediently and cleverly, "Master Zhi."
Hearing this, a touch of satisfaction colored Gu Zhiqi’s eyes, and she reminded, "Don’t get it wrong again in the future."
Shen Tong nodded seriously.
Gu Zhiqi returned her gaze to the phone and continued reading the story of Wei Jingyu and Shen Tong.
An hour later, Gu Zhiqi sent a message to Wei Jingyu, and soon after, he knocked on the door of her room.
Gu Zhiqi went to the door with Shen Tong and handed her over to Wei Jingyu, "She’s not afraid of you now, introduce yourself to her and you can take her away."
Wei Jingyu, his mind filled with question marks, alternated his gaze between Gu Zhiqi and Shen Tong, "Gu Family’s younger sister, are you sure that this..."
At this point, Wei Jingyu suddenly found himself at a loss for words and didn’t know what to say.
Seeing his hesitation, Gu Zhiqi looked directly at Shen Tong, "He is Wei Jingyu, you can go home with him now."
Before she could finish addressing him, the door to Gu Zhiqi’s room slammed shut, and Shen Tong was left staring at the closed door, standing dazed on the spot.
Wei Jingyu moved beside Shen Tong at a glacial pace, stuttering as he began, "Tongtong, I, I am Wei..."
"You’re Da Yu, right?" Wei Jingyu hadn’t finished speaking when Shen Tong looked at him with clear eyes.
At her words, Wei Jingyu paused, then, as he came to realize, tears streamed down his face, "Tongtong, you... you remember me?"
At this, Shen Tong shook her head slightly.
Wei Jingyu felt a wave of disappointment, his already anxious heart growing heavy.
"Little Fairy... Master Zhi said that you are Wei Jingyu, Wei Jingyu is Da Yu, she also said that you like me, and I should... I should like you," Shen Tong spoke, her eyes tinted with confusion at the words "I should like you."
Because she herself didn’t know whether she liked him or not.
But Master Zhi said so, so she probably did.
Wei Jingyu didn’t notice Shen Tong’s mention of Master Zhi; he focused entirely on the phrase "I should like you."
Wei Jingyu’s hands, previously resting at his sides, suddenly clenched, and tears kept falling, his quivering lips barely managing to say, "Yes... yes, I like you."
But he didn’t know whether she had ever liked him or not.
Yet he wouldn’t say this now.
At least, not until they found a Hypnotist for her, he wouldn’t say it.
Let him be selfish this once, presume on his part, and take care of her for a while.
Seeing Wei Jingyu crying continuously, a hint of confusion flashed in Shen Tong’s eyes, "Why are you crying? Is it because liking me causes you pain?"
At that, Wei Jingyu raised his hand, clumsily wiping his face, "How could it? Liking you, it’s happiness."
Shen Tong heard this but was somewhat incredulous, though she didn’t say anything.
Seeing him cry did make her feel somewhat distressed, so she probably really did like him a little.
