298: Chapter 298: You Are Annoying (Part 2)_1 298: Chapter 298: You Are Annoying (Part 2)_1 âAlright,â Yang Ruxin acquiesced easily.
She indeed needed to practice her calligraphy properly, after all there were no simplified characters or ballpoint pens here, and if she ever went outside, being unable to write would be a disadvantage.
âThen tomorrowâŠâ
âIâll come over in the morning,â Yang Ruxin glanced at Gu Qingheng, âitâs taxing on the eyes at night.â The light from oil lamps and candles was too dim, and prolonged exposure could lead to nearsightedness.
Moreover, the atmosphere at night seemed inherently more ambiguous; thereâs a saying about the allure of looking at a beauty under the light, and under candlelight, Gu Qingheng appeared even more irresistibly stunning.
She didnât want to challenge her self-control daily.
After all, if one starts thinking of someone as a brother, but then canât hold back from pouncing on them, wouldnât that turn one gay?
She still needed to maintain her self-respect!
Gu Qingheng was unaware of Yang Ruxinâs thoughts, but the time didnât really matter to him, as long as he had time alone with her, it was good; to him, it was always nighttime anyway.
âIâm leaving,â Yang Ruxin stood up.
âXinxin,â Gu Qingheng called out just as Yang Ruxin reached the door.
âIs there anything else?â Yang Ruxin turned around.
Gu Qingheng revealed a tender smile: âYou are very smart.â
âDo I need you to tell me that?â Yang Ruxin pouted.
âAnd you know how to hide your talents,â Gu Qingheng chuckled softly; in his mind, he could already envision her smug little face, which was quite adorable.
Yang Ruxin frowned, what did he mean by that?
Suddenly her eyes widened: âYouâŠ
youâŠ
What do you mean?
When have I ever hidden my talents?â
âXinxin,â Gu Qingheng moved his wheelchair closer to Yang Ruxin by two steps, the smile deepening at the corners of his mouth, âIâve said I will always trust you, so, you can trust me too.â He paused, âOutside, you can try hard to disguise yourself, fight earnestly, but I hope that when you return before me, you can feel the most relaxedâŠâ
Yang Ruxinâs nose suddenly felt sore, but she quickly suppressed the discomfort in her heart: âGu Qingheng, do you know?
You are really annoyingâŠâ After she finished, she turned and walked out, for she feared if she walked too slow her tears would fall.
After Gu Qingheng was momentarily stunned, he displayed an affectionate smile.
And just as Yang Ruxin stepped into the courtyard, she was stopped by the Feng Family: âIâve just made some sugar cakes for the little ones to eatâŠâ
âThank you, Auntie Feng,â Yang Ruxin took the basket feeling guilty, and once out the door, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This person was too uncanny; she simply couldnât hide any secrets from him, and that was even when he was blind.
If his eyes were good, thenâŠ
she felt that in front of him, she would probably be as exposed as someone stripped bare.
Fortunately, they were not enemies.
Of course, there was one thing she was reluctant to admit: his gentleness just now had moved her, and in that moment, she even felt a surge of desire to confess.
So, that guy was a dangerous element; from now on, she really had to be careful.
Cherish life, stay away from Gu Qingheng.
She had decided, she wouldnât flirt with him anymore.
The night passed without incident, and early the next morning, while Yang Ruxin was still dreaming, Gu Yao came knocking on the door, announcing that it was time for the morning martial arts training, and so, despite feeling miserable, she pushed herself to get up.
Zhou Xiao and his siblings also joined the training.
As a result, Gu Yao discovered that Zhou Xiao had a foundation; he must have been taught from a young age.
The little one didnât conceal it and mentioned that his father had taught him horseback archery skills from early childhood, and although his father had been busy and away from home later on, he still practiced every day until his abduction interrupted it.
