Chapter 109.1: 後續
[The Continuation / Follow Up]
In the next second when Chen Xing looked over, Gu Lang seemed to have noticed his gaze, he also turned his head to look in his direction, and when he saw him staring at himself with a pair of big eyes, he gently ticked the corner of his lips, and said in a gentle voice: “What’s wrong?”
Chen Xing looked at the gentle smile on Gu Lang’s face, he didn’t know what to say at the moment. He wanted to ask him if what Madam Chen said was true, but he didn’t feel it was good to open his mouth and ask about it.
Both have not opened their mouths, the atmosphere there for a moment was somehow awkward.
In fact, Chen Xing’s mood at this time is very upset and confused, Mrs Chen’s words just now are like a thorn with fluff, gently stuck there, even if it does not hurt much, but also makes him feel very uncomfortable. But reason also told him that he should not believe any of Mrs Chen’s words, because she is very likely to drive a wedge between them so she said it like that.
Just when Chen Xing was hesitating whether he should ask or not, Gu Lang seemed to suddenly understand the reason for Chen Xing’s abnormality and said softly, “Do you want to ask about what Mrs Chen had said just now?”
When Chen Xing heard Gu Lang bring up this topic on his own, he suddenly raised his head to look in Gu Lang’s direction, with a few moments of obvious awkwardness on his face, “I, I didn’t want to ask, it’s just, it’s just…”
Chen Xing stammered for half a day, but did not continue what she was trying to say. He has never been good at lying, now facing the tightly staring at him by Gu Lang, she is naturally even more unlikely to lie.
Gu Lang was looking at Chen Xing’s flustered look, and laughed softly, and then while Chen Xing in stunned expression, he apologize, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have laughed, actually it’s the way you’re tangled up just now, it’s kind of somewhat cute.”
Originally because of peeping into other
people’s privacy, and feel a little embarrassed Chen Xing, after hearing Gu Lang said so, his face could not help but reddened, all of a sudden he was at a loss for words as he stood there, completely not knowing what to do next.
However, Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing like this, and continued, “I’m really sorry, about the thing that Mrs Chen said, and this time, the sudden turnover with the Chen family, I should have made it clear to you earlier.”
After saying that, Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing with a bit more seriousness in his gaze, causing Chen Xing, who was being stared at by him, to become heavy as well.
“In the past,my family and the Chen family were very close. I didn’t expect that they would drop stones on someone who has fallen into a well—hit a person when he’s down to my family when they were in trouble, or use such a despicable method. So when I came back and learnt about all this, my feelings were extraordinarily complicated, and my first thought was to retaliate back.”
When Gu Lang said these words, there was a slight hint of depression in his tone, as if this incident, at that time, had not been a small blow or hit to him.
Chen Xing also remembered that in the past, when Gu Lang mentioned his family, the lost look on his face. His mood could not help but feel a little bit of pity for Gu Lang, along with his heart that just gave birth to a trace of unhappy emotions, also at the same time, in this instant moment, it dissipated a lot.
“Before this, I started to plan how to get revenge and get back what I should have. But what I didn’t expect was that they sent you to me.”
When Chen Xing heard Gu Lang say this, his breathing stopped for a moment, and he raised his eyes to look at him. His eyes filled with a nervousness he hadn’t even noticed. He vaguely had a few thoughts about whether his presence had changed things a little, or whether he was part of it.
“I’m happy, and I’m glad too.” Gu Lang said as such.
Chen Xing snapped his head up to look at Gu Lang, seemingly shocked or astonished by his speech.
“I’m glad that they sent you here because they didn’t want to return the bride price or marry their daughter to me. If not for that, I might not have crossed paths with you for the rest of my life, what a pity that would be ah!”
Gu Lang seemed to have thought of something wonderful, and when he said this, the gentle expression on his face made Chen Xing’s heart soften quite a lot.
Even though it wasn’t the first time he had heard Gu Lang say this, when Chen Xing heard it again, his heart was still beating wildly and uncontrollably.
“I have also thought about giving up my revenge against the Chen family for you. After all, they sent me ‘you’, I think it can already be worth all those things they took away. No, even compared to those things, you are more important.”
Chen Xing’s face reddens and becomes pale, and finally becomes a little anxious, he looks at the man in front of him and anxiously says: “But, but, how can it be, it is clearly your family’s things (properties) ah! Even for my sake, you shouldn’t give it up so easily!”
Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing’s panicked appearance. Gu Lang’s expression that stared at him becoming more and more gentle,
“Hence, later I found out that you do not have that deep feelings for them, not even a little feeling there, only then, I did not hesitate to move at all.”
Chen Xing heard here immediately froze, then thought of his own identity as a transmigrator (time traveler or dimension traveler), raised his eyes to look at the man in front of him, somehow guiltily said, “That…that, is that so obvious?”
Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing’s faint-hearted look, and not knowing what came to his mind, he said a sentence of unknown meaning, “Because I have been watching you all along ah! Your dislike for them, I naturally also saw it in my eyes.”
Chen Xing listening to Gu Lang, this sentence is similar to the words of confession. He did not know why he felt a little twisted at the same time, but also felt a little happy. Facing Gu Lang, isn’t this like a confession kind of scene? so he sometimes does not know how to respond to it.
“Well, it’s getting late, we should go back, everyone is tired today, let’s talk about it tomorrow if there is something okay?”
