she wasn't angry, just thought it was better not to do things when she was feeling down."It's no big deal." He came over and naturally took her hand, leading her out."Are you really not bothered" she...He came in and immediately pulled her, who was shocked speechless, into his arms.
"Yaoyao, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."
No matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free from his embrace.
She already had a headache from crying and her nose was stuffy, now being held like this made it even worse, she could barely breathe.
"I'm sorry, I won't argue with you again." He whispered in her ear, stroking her gently, using all his tenderness.
People often have the illusion that when someone is magnanimous and doesn't hold a grudge, they naturally assume that person doesn't care. Therefore, they feel justified in accepting their past mistakes.
But, perhaps the other party doesn't even understand themselves, because they choose to be magnanimous out of love. Over time, they come to believe that they truly don't care.
...but the truth is, those buried wounds, festering day after day, have finally burst open. ...
Lu YaoYao still didn't want to pay attention to him, but she couldn't resist him either, so she let him hold her.
“Yao Yao, the things from the past are all roads I've walked, I can't erase them. You can punish me however you like. But the moment I fell for you, there hasn't been another woman in my life. Take a closer look at that picture on your phone, they were just sitting next to me, partners who were arranged by someone else without my knowledge. I got rid of them.”
The past, no matter how it's explained, seems pale and unable to be changed. So let's look to the future.
Lu YaoYao's train of thought was always different from others. After hearing his sincere words, she thought of something else and asked in a low voice, "Past events What past events are you talking about You sound like you've had many women in the past"
Gu Ruandong stiffened, forgetting that she only had an 18-year-old's memory and didn't know about his past. She was just angry because she saw the photo from the club.
It's like shooting oneself in the foot.
"Scumbag." Lu Yaoyao cursed again.
She could curse and vent as she pleased, Gu Ruandong would take it all. As long as she didn't cry, as long as she wasn't heartbroken anymore.
But Lu Yaoyao had always been too well-behaved in front of him, never acting out or throwing a tantrum. Whenever she got angry, a little coaxing would do the trick. So he had never experienced how unreasonable a woman could be when she was truly upset and difficult to handle.
"Stay away from me. Don't touch me."
Her eyes and nose were red from crying, and she spoke very clearly.
Gu Ruandong could only continue to shamelessly cling to her, "If I don't touch you, at least let me hold you for a while."
"No." She finally broke free from him, and to avoid him following her, went straight out the door and downstairs.
As soon as she went downstairs, Mother Gu and Cuiping saw her heartbroken look. Gu Ruandong followed helplessly behind her.
What else could it be besides being bullied by him
Gu's mother and Cuiping wanted to help Yaoyao, but they were both afraid of Gu Ruandong. They could only silently condemn him with their eyes, feeling that no matter what, it was wrong to make her cry like this.
Lu Yao Yao was also very good at stirring up trouble. Without saying a word, she stood pitifully behind Mother Gu, looking for support.
Mrs. Gu originally wouldn't dare to speak up for her own son, but seeing YaoYao standing so defiantly by her side, clearly wanting her support, she, as a mother-in-law, had to put on a show of strength. She cleared her throat and mustered her courage: "What's going on Didn't I just tell you to speak your mind You bullied someone into tears."
Gu Ruandong glanced at the little girl behind her, YaoYao. He was helpless and sighed. It's said that in this world, women and villains are the hardest to raise. He wasn't afraid of the villain, but he was truly afraid of this woman before him.
Gu's mother, not daring to truly speak about her son, seeing that his attitude was acceptable, turned around and said to Yaoyao: "You see, he has a good attitude about admitting his mistake. Tell me what you want him to do so that you won't be angry, and I'll make him do it."
Lu Yaoyao: “Have him write a guarantee, promising he’ll never look at other women again for the rest of his life. If he dares to glance at another woman, he’ll be out on the streets.”
“This…” is a bit harsh. Mrs. Gu glanced at Gu Ruandong, who was known for making mistakes from a young age and would rather be beaten than write a self-criticism letter. He thought it was like branding him forever on the pillar of shame.
Result, Gu Ruandong, with no backbone: "Fine, I'll write it."
He knelt very quickly.
"Come, let's go to the study and write. The study has a seal."
Mrs. Gu was shocked beyond words. To write it was bad enough, but to proactively request a seal as well
Gu Ruandong looked at Lu Yaoyao and motioned for her to go to the study with him to write.
Lu Yaoyao didn't expect him to agree so seriously, so she hesitated and followed him to the study. She wasn't really asking him to leave home empty-handed; she wasn't that kind of person.
The two of them arrived at the study. Lu Yaoyao was afraid he would cause trouble again, so she left the door open. Gu Ruandong sat on one side of the desk while she sat on the other.
He took out two pieces of paper very seriously and handed her one. “Draft one first, tell me how you want me to ensure it gets written down, and I’ll copy it after you.”
She pushed the paper towards him. "Humph, not even a bit of sincerity. Of course you have to write the promise yourself. Write down what you plan to do in the future, it's not like I'm telling you what to do. There's a big difference between being proactive and reactive!"
Gu Ruandong expressed agreement: "Well, that makes sense."
"Reflect deeply."
"Okay."
To please his 18-year-old wife, Gu Ruandong endured anything. Her happiness was the most important thing to him.
Sitting upright and attentively, holding one's breath, starting to write with a brush.
The main content first admits that all the previous absurdities were extremely wrong, then praises her, saying he was lucky to meet her, who guided him on the right path. She is like his little sun, with her shining, all other women around are pale in comparison, he can't even see them. Finally, he guarantees that if he looks at other women in marriage, he will... !
Lu Yaoyao read it word by word, showing a bit of satisfaction, but she nitpicked: "What do you mean 'within marriage' Are you thinking about divorce Even if we get divorced, you're not allowed to even glance at other women. Change that."
"If you get divorced, then you won't have any say over me anymore, so if you want this agreement to remain valid forever, we can't divorce." He deliberately wrote it that way.
"You make a good point. I'm not unreasonable. Fine, let's just get this done. Sign here and seal it."
Gu Ruandong followed her instructions to the letter.
She finally broke into a satisfied, gentle smile.
Gu Ruandong looked at her, her unreasonable demands had an adorable quality to them. His gaze naturally softened.
He said, "Give me your phone."
What
"Let me take a picture of it for you to save, so you don't lose it. Bring it to the notary tomorrow."
He took her phone and operated it for a while, then nonchalantly asked, "Yaoyao, have you ever asked us about our marriage"
"Oh, alright then" she asked, placatingly.
Gu Ruandong picked out a few videos of them from his phone, clips from their previous variety show recordings, "You can see for yourself, there's video evidence."
"I've been watching these past two days, and it seems like they are deeply in love."
"It seems"
"Well, I am a celebrity. Since we're married, participating in a variety show and showcasing our love on screen is just part of our persona, right It's all about maintaining our image. Besides, I think acting as your wife and putting on a loving display should be the peak of my acting career, don't you think" show. It's not that I don't want to expose you and make you embarrassed, but rather that I'm afraid of the truth behind the lie. I'd rather deceive myself, pretend I don't know, and maintain a facade...
