As soon as they reached the backyard, he couldn’t help but hold her hand. It seemed that ever since they held hands last time, Shao Qingyuan would always think of ways to hold her hand.
Gu Yundong looked down but did not take her hand back. She just glanced at him with a faint smile. “I suddenly remembered something.”
“What is it?” Shao Qingyuan felt that her small hand was especially smooth and tender. Holding it made him feel satisfied and he couldn’t bear to part with it.
“Tell me, did you also play some tricks? For example, three wild boars turned into two. You clearly had money, but you didn’t eat well or wear good clothes. Did you deliberately appear in front of me frequently?”
Shao Qingyuan’s face tightened, and he stopped kneading her hand.
He looked up and met her raised eyebrows. His voice lowered slightly. “That was a legitimate… small trick.” Jiang Yongkang’s was illegitimate.
“I didn’t expect you to be such a scheming man.”
The corners of Shao Qingyuan’s mouth tightened. “You hate it?”
Hate it? Not really. She was even a little happy. This man, who had tried all means to attract her attention, had actually satisfied her little vanity.
Gu Yundong, you’re a white lotus who is so pretentious after taking advantage of him. I despise you ten thousand times.
After despising herself, Gu Yundong threw the thought aside.
Shao Qingyuan acutely sensed the change in her emotions, especially when he saw the corners of her mouth curl up slightly. He suddenly heaved a sigh of relief.
He held her hand tightly and pulled her into his arms.
Gu Yundong’s nose was instantly filled with his scent. She heard his low voice.
“I won’t do anything that might hurt you.”
It was impossible to find some hooligans like Jiang Yongkang did to fulfill his dream of saving the damsel in distress. What if they scared her?
Gu Yundong’s smile widened. Of course. Shao Qingyuan was many times better than Jiang Yongkang.
“Cough, cough.” Suddenly, light coughs came from the side.
Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan turned around at the same time and saw Aunt Ke standing at the entrance of the courtyard with a look of disdain. “You’re not married yet. Control yourselves.”
Shao Qingyuan was a little angry. He had only hugged her for a while.
Gu Yundong suddenly hugged his waist tightly before letting go. Then, under Shao Qingyuan’s smiling gaze, she looked at Aunt Ke and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Aunt Ke pointed at her and snorted. “Father Tong is back. He said that Yunshu and Yuanzhi won’t be back today.”
“I think a classmate invited them over as guests. They’ll stay for the night,” Aunt Ke said. “Actually, in the past six months, Yunshu has been to several of his classmates’ houses. It’s just that you hadn’t returned yet. He hasn’t invited his classmates to his place yet. I heard that it’s Yunshu’s birthday in a few days. Should we invite his classmates over as guests?”
Gu Yundong was stunned. Birthday? Damn it, she had almost forgotten.
Not only did she not remember Gu Yunshu’s birthday, but she also did not remember her own. In her previous life, she grew up in an orphanage and did not even know the exact date of her birth. The date on her identity card was random.
Hence, she had never celebrated a birthday since she was young.
Occasionally, when she saw those scenes on television, she would vaguely remember that there was such a day that belonged to her. If she had a sudden impulse, she would treat that day as her birthday and make a small cake to eat alone in the apartment.
Now that she had a family in this life, birthday seemed to have become especially important.
She recalled carefully and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, other than Yunshu, her family’s birthdays were in the second half of the year..
