Chapter 1843: Chapter 1843: Star of Tomorrow (End)
Gu Yu took Chuzheng inside, weaving under the various lanterns, shadows and light brushed over them.
Amidst the fleeting lights and shadows, their figures intertwined.
Gu Yu asked her, "Does it look nice?"
"Mm." Chuzheng adjusted her hat, "Why did you bring me here?"
Gu Yu’s lips moved for a moment before he squeezed out a dry sentence, "I invested money in this. I wanted you to see the result."
Chuzheng: "Why do this with nothing else to do?"
Gu Yu didn’t know where the anger came from, "Can’t I do it because I want to?"
"Alright, as long as it makes you happy, what opinion could I have? After all, I’m just an emotionless ’good person’.
Although the light was dim here, they walked inconspicuously among the crowd, yet someone still recognized them.
"Let’s go."
Before the crowd gathered, Chuzheng pulled Gu Yu away.
The two of them passed through the sea of lanterns and left the square.
Gu Yu held Chuzheng’s hand as they walked by the roadside, cars occasionally whooshed by, bringing a flow of lights and shadows.
Gu Yu gazed at the shadow on the ground.
He had never imagined that one day, he’d walk hand in hand with someone like this on the street.
"Qin Chuzheng."
Chuzheng glanced sideways, the brilliant lights flashed beneath her eyes without causing a ripple, as serenely as he knew her.
"Why did you like Fu Xingchen back then?"
Chuzheng: "??"
Can’t we move past this already!
Fu Xingchen is long gone, why would you bring him up!
"I didn’t like him."
"I’m not judging, I’m just curious," Gu Yu stated.
Chuzheng insisted, "I didn’t like him."
The one who liked Fu Xingchen was the original version of this idiot, nothing to do with me.
Gu Yu: "..."
Gu Yu changed the question, "Then why do you like me?"
"..."
Why do Good Person Cards always ask this question?
Chuzheng thought for a moment and earnestly replied, "There’s no reason to like someone, you like them because you do."
Gu Yu suddenly stopped, "You like my face, don’t you?"
"If you think so, then sure," Chuzheng replied nonchalantly.
"..."
What does it mean if he thinks so, then that’s the case?
Gu Yu was irritated and stopped talking to Chuzheng. Back at the villa, he went alone to his room.
Chuzheng couldn’t go through the door, so she had to enter through the window.
Gu Yu sat cross-legged on the bed, his face darkening when he saw her come in through the window, "I’ve warned you, don’t climb through windows."
"Divorce, I know," Chuzheng replied, "If you’re not afraid of grandma scolding you, go ahead." Anyway, I don’t mind.
If you get divorced, you’re exceptional.
Gu Xiaoshun: "..."
He glanced at the window, planning to install an anti-theft one tomorrow! Let’s see how you climb then!
Chuzheng sat down next to Gu Yu immediately, Gu Yu frowned, pointing to the bathroom, "Go shower."
"Together?"
Gu Yu forced a smile, "Miss Qin, please go alone!"
"It’s not like..."
"Get out!"
Chuzheng sighed, changing clothes to wash up. Being a Good Person Card is difficult, life is hard, being a good person is even harder.
-
Despite Gu Yu having retired from the limelight for so many years, his popularity hadn’t diminished much.
Because he occasionally appeared with Chuzheng on trending topics.
Like...
#GuYuQinChuzhengLanternFestival#
In the photo, Gu Yu had his arm around Chuzheng’s waist, the two were standing close, looking intimately engaged.
[Husband and wife seem to have a great relationship.]
[When will wife come out with a new drama? It’s been too long! Stop hanging out with husband all the time, remember those who need support.]
Fans no longer call this young lady ’miss’, but ’wife’, ’husband’s wife’, which fits better with their husband.
Isn’t the pinnacle of a fan’s life having both a husband and a wife?
[Husband and wife are such a good match, ahhhhh, high-quality images please!]
[I want to see them act together.]
[Agreed!]
[Crowdfunding!! I’ll chip in a dollar!]
[You give a dollar, I’ll give a dollar, and the stars will appear together this year.]
[You give a dollar, I’ll give a dollar, acting together is a higher goal.]
[...]
It’s definitely impossible for Chuzheng and Gu Yu to act together, since Gu Yu has already left the industry to become President Gu.
Fans were destined to be disappointed.
To appease the disappointed fans, Chuzheng decided to hold a prize draw and disperse wealth.
Giving away houses!
Weibo: ??????
Fake draw?
The draw was real, but after the draw, it turned out there wasn’t a place to buy so many houses at once, so Chuzheng decided to build her own.
Everyone: "???"
Seriously, a draw that ends with building houses yourself? That’s a bit shocking!
Perhaps Chuzheng’s luck was terrible, as after she bought the land and construction began, plans suddenly emerged for a school to be built nearby.
Her piece of land instantly became a prime school zone, with real estate prices soaring.
Chuzheng didn’t lose, and actually made a fortune.
Feeling quite down.
"You’re upset about making money?" Gu Yu couldn’t understand his wife, "The more you earn, the more you can spend."
Chuzheng: "..."
I don’t want to, you weakling know nothing!
"Speaking of which, I’ve had a question I’ve wanted to ask you."
"Ask."
"Where did you get so much money?" The Qin Family doesn’t really interact with her; given that relationship, they’re unlikely to give her money.
So where’s her money from?
"Falling from the sky, do you believe it?"
Gu Yu remarked impatiently, "Is there anything that doesn’t fall from the sky with you?"
Everything is claimed to be heavenly. Are you a beloved daughter of the gods?
Chuzheng gave him a glance, barely parted her lips, "You."
Gu Yu: "..."
He certainly didn’t fall from the sky!!
But... why does this feel strangely embarrassing!
"By the way, what’s your opinion on what grandma mentioned?" Gu Yu changed the subject.
"What?" Chuzheng asked, puzzled.
"The child."
"...Do you want one?" Chuzheng felt a bit off.
Gu Yu couldn’t pinpoint if he wanted a child or not, since he hadn’t prepared himself to be a father yet.
Having a father like Father Gu...
His head lowered, "Grandma wants a great-grandchild."
I’m not capable!
Chuzheng picked at the edge of the sofa. After a while, she said, "Why don’t we... steal one?"
Gu Yu: "..."
Are you insane!
It’s illegal to steal when you can have your own, don’t you know!
No wait...
Gu Yu seemed to realize something, he glanced at Chuzheng’s belly. It’s been so long with no news, which isn’t right.
They take annual check-ups, their health is fine, no issues.
Gu Yu squinted his eyes, "Are you secretly taking pills? Let me tell you, Qin Chuzheng, those pills are bad for your health, I can..."
"No," Chuzheng shook her head.
Gu Yu frowned, "You don’t want one?"
"..." It’s not about what I want, I don’t even need to consider it; there’s no setting for this!
Seeing Chuzheng not speaking, Gu Yu’s eyes flickered. Soon, he said, "I’ll speak with grandma about this matter, let’s end it here."
Chuzheng uttered an ’mm’ and got up to return to her room.
Scared me half to death.
If a Good Person Card insists, how can she produce a child for him?
Need to escape.
Gu Yu stayed seated for a while, feeling uneasy before following her to the room, only to see Chuzheng lounging, looking at her phone effortlessly.
His expression stiffened.
Turns out he overthought it.
This heartless woman couldn’t possibly have issues.
Gu Yu slammed the door in frustration and left.
Chuzheng: "..."
Can’t the Good Person Card go a day without acting up?
So bizarre.
-
Outside, Gu Yu leaned against the wall, his eyes focusing into the void.
After a long while, he let out a soft sigh, "As long as I have you..."
