Chapter 61: I Just Like You
“If we’re discussing who is worthy, Auntie, I think you know that very few people can compare to my identity. So, it’s definitely not for that reason.”
“It’s just that I feel our personalities aren’t compatible, so Auntie, please don’t interfere too much. Let us decide for ourselves. If he also agrees to break off the engagement, I will persuade Mother. You don’t need to worry about this.”
Gu Siyu explained.
Zuo Ning was merely worried about how to explain things to her Mommy if the engagement was broken off.
However, Gu Siyu didn’t even give Zuo Ning a chance to explain before turning and leaving.
Zuo Ning actually wanted to say that it wasn’t because of that, but rather that Gu Siyu and her son were a very good match.
——
The next day was Monday. Bei Ming Hao Chen sat in the restaurant, watching Gu Siyu come downstairs.
His brow furrowed.
“Still not getting ready? You’ll be late for class.”
Bei Ming Hao Chen said irritably.
Late?
Gu Siyu frowned. Why did she still have to go to school?
“I’m not going.”
“What kind of school is this, so troublesome.”
Gu Siyu mumbled. She didn’t really like places like school. Her education from childhood had been personally tutored by the world’s most renowned teachers. Gu Siyu had excellent talent, and she could understand many things after just one explanation. Therefore, at seventeen years old, Gu Siyu possessed more knowledge than many doctoral students, professors, and experts.
“Not going? What do you want to do?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen frowned. She had just been found, and now she wanted to run away? What did she want to do if not go to school?
“I’m telling you, you’re so annoying. You clearly don’t like me, yet you’re always controlling me. Is that interesting?”
“You’d better find a way to break off our engagement quickly, or I’ll make you pay.”
Gu Siyu clenched her fists and raised them as if to strike.
The sight was actually quite cute, and Bei Ming Hao Chen actually smiled, which was unprecedented.
Realizing he had lost control, he quickly adjusted his emotions: “Then I’ll accompany you.”
“Wherever you want to go, we’ll go together.”
Huh?
The atmosphere changed so suddenly, Gu Siyu couldn’t react.
For the entire morning, Bei Ming Hao Chen truly stayed by her side, as if afraid she would run away.
And Gu Siyu had indeed planned to escape while Bei Ming Hao Chen was away.
She had been taken away by Bei Ming Hao Chen after parting with Aili yesterday, and Aili was still waiting for her.
Gu Siyu glanced back at Bei Ming Hao Chen following behind her and mumbled, “What a stalker.”
She then linked her arm with Bei Ming Hao Chen’s and leaned in close, saying, “If you act like this, I’ll misunderstand and think you like me and don’t want to break off the engagement.”
Her tone was soft and incredibly ambiguous.
Bei Ming Hao Chen was momentarily captivated.
Then he chuckled, “Yes, I do like you, and I don’t want to break off the engagement anymore.”
“Pick a date, and let’s hold the engagement ceremony.”
Gu Siyu: …
What the heck is going on?
The person who had vowed to break off the engagement with her just a moment ago now wanted to get engaged?
Actually, even Bei Ming Hao Chen himself couldn’t understand it. He had never had a good impression of girls, but this Gu Siyu had challenged his limits time and time again, yet he found himself reluctant to let her leave just like that!
Perhaps it was male pride, possessiveness, wanting to conquer her?
Bei Ming Hao Chen made excuses for himself, but it was merely fooling himself.
“Dream on!”
